pneumatic hammer pulled an incredibly stuck seat post from a Miyata 610 frame. It was SO stuck, once it started moving, then rotating, it STILL took the hammer to get it all they way out. It was a BEAR.
to clean out the tube afterwords I chocked a coat hanger into a drill with a wad of steel wool folded into the other end. Made a diy ball hone tool 😂
