hold up.
don't let the fork take the force.
i use a pvc pipe but i think the park tool works the same way. flip the entire setup upside down. then slam that puppy into your garage floor. your fork tips should be facing the ceiling while doing this.
fyi, i've set a few really tight races in the past and realized that a lot of my effort was being wasted trying not to damage the fork itself. upside down method works
and a little grease on the inside of the race always helps
