My bearing is stuck on the YYF multitool! Ive tried freezing twice, I’ve tried lubing it and pulling, and I’ve tried pliers and even a vice. No luck. Not even budging. Any ideas?

Use a vice and a center punch. Open the vice enough so that the bearing center race rests on the jaws and the multi-tool hanging below it. Use the center punch and a jammer to LIGHTLY tap the tool post out of the bearing. With luck you won’t break the bearing.
