Seems a lot easier to just snap it in with your fingers, which have done on many occasions.
THanks for the photos adn info though Nick. Appreciated as always! |

Thanks Nick for the informative post.
I just love the line: "If you don't have lathe, ask someone to make one for you." If I have a lathe? I´m not sure, I have to went out and look in my garage. Haven´t I seen one out there? I´m not sure. Jocke |

Thanks for the how-to, Nick. This is definitely important to keep from bending/warping the bezel insert.

Nick,
With all do respect, who has a lathe sitting around the house. If they are that easy to make, might be something you could produce for the rest of us. And how about a bezel remover tool? That seems to be the most troubling part. Love your tuorials and all the info you have gracefully contributed to TRF. If you sold the bezel removal tool and an insert press, I bet you would sell some here. I'd be first in line. dP

I'm struggling to see why it would have any use by the average WIS.
