ive installed my headset a number of times, by hitting it home with the rubber coated handle of a hammer. it has always worked, but it chips and damages my bad quality paint job.
ive just had a nice looking paintjob, but its still not great quality paint. so id like to avoid this happening if possible.
dont really want to buy a proper press, and making one of those DIY presses looks like alot of effort.
anyone got any tips on ways to do this better?
