Thanks John,
I do have one of the Harbor Freight 20Ton press in the shop. I like the press but the closest freezer or oven is about 10min away. About the only source of heat that I could set up at the shop would be a small portable propane stove burner (or charcoal BBQ pit.) As you mentioned, attempting to use the wife's oven would likely create a very volatile situation Shes still upset with me about my foot injury and that was almost a month ago,haha!
Thinking about this, I just had a memory from many years ago at work they had one of those portable induction bearing heaters in an electric motor shop. The guys would put large bearings on it and then be able to just take the bearing with some thick hand mits and practically drop it onto the motor shaft with little effort.
Would love to have one those right now!
Thanks, I'll let you know how it goes
