Does "everything" include finding someone (or a shop) with the right tool, or making one similar to Sheldon's suggestion? If you use a tool with a handle you need to brace the frame. When I managed a shop we pretty never failed to remove a fixed cup with the Stein Tool. We had a large Craftsman machinist's vise very solidly mounted, so just put the tool in the vise and turned the frame.
