My tip of the day. I had a bearing race to install that was way deep inside a cast iron housing. The "grease on the bearing driver" trick did not want to work, and I was very afraid of dropping the race inside the housing where I could not reach it. Then, I saw a coffee can nearby. I cut a rectangular piece of the plastic coffee can lid that was just a bit smaller in length than the bearing race diameter. I cut a hole in the center of lid to match the diameter of the bolt in the center of the bearing driver. Then, I slipped the race on the driver, slipped the plastic piece on top of the race. The bolt that holds the driver together held the plastic and race in place. Once I got the bearing race started, I pulled the driver and plastic from the housing, discarded the plastic and drove the race in the rest of the way.
