OK...here's the deal! After scaring my dog to death, teaching him some new words, making the neighbors think "WTF" is going on in my garage...I even learned some NEW and BETTER uses for numerous expletives that I must admit were VERY SOPHISTICATED

, I have successfully "pulled out" I mean extracted the fixed cup from the bb shell of this old Hercules frame. With the proper "appendage", I mean piece of pipe on the rachet handle and persistence it just backed out! I even amaze myself sometimes! I do THAN ALL all for the words of instruction and "encouragement and I have to thank the numerous "malt based beverages" that contributed to my success in this "most excellent adventure" in leverage, patience and the proper use of a piece of pipe!
THANKS ALL AGAIN!
Now I'm sure that all of the participants in my success will be encouraged to know that there are certainly more questions to pose in this "Herculian" adventure.
