Who had the stuck seat post?

[winchman]

Well I have one now so found this home made tool
Then found a bloke who looks like he does it for a living but doesn't cut it out, so how does he do it???

So the challenge is on how does he do it and can I make one cheaply

Could you explain what that is as I am a bit slow...

Getting stuck bicycle post out I get.

Could you explain the photos please.

Blasting co2 down the shaft, and an electric blanket or fan heaters on the outside.

Atf and acetone or wd40, ?

Sorry its a bloke who made a special tool that takes a hacksaw blade to allow you to cut the post out and hopefully not damage the frame

Ahhh, wasn't sure what I was looking at, thanks.

Band saw through some round bar, tap grub screws through both sides.

Or even a slitting risk would do it in a grinder.

Stick hacksaw blade in tighten up.

Stick a handle on the end.

Jobs a goodun.

Mines an alloy post in a steel frame

So where would I get a cheap split collar?

 

[winchman]

So now how to make it, obviously I want to make it for free.
What would you use for the screw thread as I doubt studding would be up to it?

That’s a park tool setup by the looks

Definitely not a genuine park tool, but it's been painted to give that impression.

I have got a porta power but struggling to think of how to connect it up?
