Tool Tarts everwhere, and those who are OCD about tools

[telectrix]

i bought a bush spanner with a slot in it so you can tighten a bush if it's already got cables coming through. had it 5 years and used it once.

That’s the style of this one Tel. The type of tool that if you didn’t know what it was for, you would never guess it’s use.
There’s only so many times that you can try to tighten or loosen a bush with pump pliers or long nose pliers before you cave in to the reason why they make a tool for the right job.

Do they do an up to date version. Mine used to be useful.....before all these cheap and skinny mb bushes came into being.

Don’t know on that one. It’s the only one I’m aware of and it’s now tried and tested. I tried on the brass 20mm bushes and it seems that the 25mm end fits better so you may be onto something there (but I don’t know what).

a 1/4" slotted driver ( cheap one, not wera or wiha) and a 16 0z. hammer do the job well.

Not now I’ve got the ‘proper job’!

Be interesting to hear your thoughts on the CK bush spanner.
Ive got one in my bag but can find very little use for it!
I had a really nice one once but It got pinched.

 

[telectrix]

is it this one? good idea as it also allows for use wth cables in bush.

I have one and use it daily. A decent bit of kit imo.

This must be torture for Pete seeing this.
