Just wondered how you guys would tackle this problem: Flush mounted bail arm roller bearing seized onto it's shaft.
I got some heat onto it and some forceps but I got lucky.
It was recessed inside a surrounding stainless steel collar which allowed me to apply some leverage with opposing jewelers screwdrivers once a gap finally appeared between the bearing and the flush surface.
It took some time and was not what you would call a pretty solution.
Anyone got a better idea?

Sounds like you did what I would probably do.
