This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi All, Just thought that I would share a modification of a tool. Removal of plastic elbows can be a little difficult when the plastic at = the center pin is not as brittle as the elbow where it usually breaks. I saw a while back where someone had modified a pair of pliers into end = nippers so really this is their idea. The pliers that are used to regulate lost motion on wood capstans are = still usable for this even with the following change in their shape Grind the side of the tip on each side so that the tip will enter the = slot of the wippen (about 3/16) and then sharpen the ends of the tool so that they can be = used to remove the birds eye end of the elbow. To remove the wire end of the elbow your center pin flush cutters ( = without damaging them ) by cutting parallel to the wire.
