Not as easy as it seems but the hard part is suspending it somehow to maneuver that part into a press. My mechs have "engineered" a tool and it is ever so slowly coming out. The enerpac clamp required (as Carl pointed to) is not in town, about 7 grand and the clamp alone weighs 200 lbs

 

Trust me Sir, that was said tongue in cheek. I can only imagine the complexity involved. I would say things like that when visiting 

technicians repairing or upgrading paper converting equipment. "Why don't you just remove that 1000 pound cylinder to gain access for removing that gearbox"? A few well defined explanations and icy stares got their point across as I quickly left the area.

Trust me, there ain't nothing like a "you dumb shitt" stare from a German technician who travels the world doing this work.

Boy, you in a heap a trouble.....

Could be, your right, but you were there and you know it's the truth. She looked like the had a zss whpping and felt like it. 

 

Since we got home she was trying to get a doctors appointment that wasn't 1.5-2 weeks away when she finally gave up last night and we went to the emergency room, we were there from 5pm to 11 pm, they gave her a shot, 2 breathing treatments and 4 prescriptions and a letter for an appointment for a pulmonary specialist. She is feeling a little better today, had the prescriptions filled and started taking them, so far it looks like she's going to live despite how she looked. :o I hope she don't read this :ph34r:

Thanks a lot!  Makes me feel a whole lot better. 

Well you did feel like you were close to dying, and I was a little worried people might think I punched you in both eyes. 

 

What is CRS, I might need an excuse ?

Can't Remember S***.  Sorry for the proposed vulgarity.  Punched her in both eyes, that's too funny, knowing you by your posts I can tell that your not that guy.  My wife is German with a splash of Spanish.  If I even attempted anything as such I'd wake up staring at the ceiling.  With her asking, "Would you like to try again?".  I do love that about her.
