Well, just made a new innovative DIY



This is my new tool. Costed me the price of JB weld and a new 10 mm socket. I just found some little tube kinda thing in my dads tool box and made this. Instructions are not necessary since it is so simple to make. This works 100 times better than the "bent 10mm wrench" method. Enjoy.

 

 

Does that tool make those little red x's?

 

nope not on my computer. Try hitting refresh

 

That's cool, I just hope that JB Weld holds up to the torque you put on those lock nuts.

 

That's pretty groovy

Its only 14 pounds of torque. It held up great. Usually what I do is torque it just enough so when I get a 10 mm socket on a ratchet, it does not move the screw.

 

Nice

 

Pretty creative

 

Very good

yup. i tighten the screws just enough so that it doesn't move, then retorque them with a torque wrench. i often find that retorqueing them though sometimes will tighten up the screw as well and i have to do the valve clearance all over... am i the only one?? nice diy tool by the way!

Nope your not the only one. Ive tried too many methods of valve adjusting and finally found this way

 

Nice. Have you tried adjusting your valves with that new tool? How was it? Shiet... whenever I need a valve adjustment, I'll give you a call and I'll buy you lunch or somethin.

 

I see that you lift weights.

 

Haha yea Ive used it and it works just like the Harbor Freight tool. Whenever you need ajustment hit me up.

DiegoBoost, Yea I use that Muscle Milk stuff. Works great for muscle repair.

 

LOL good chit man...You have taken DIY to another level because you make your own damn tools!

 

very good idea...here is the real deal from snap on....works great

 

that tube looking tool is an bathroom falucet stem remover...go to the plumbing area in your local hardware store
