IMO, it's not worth trying to press it in yourself, I got a local
machine shop to press my new mount in for $15. Just look in your
yellow pages and call a few places. Or you can get a new mount that
is pressed into a bracket already from the Potterman. I bought a new
mount and bracket when i did it, a good thing too, cause the ring
on the old bracket was bent.
