Sphere removal tool

[KevR]

I've used a few different methods for sphere removal over the years, but usually ended up using a chain wrench. Managed to break mine ona particularly stubborn sphere recently though, so when this came up on Leboncoin last week I thought I'd give it a go. Seller used to work for Citroen in their hydraulics research department in the seventies, and this was made for him by, 'an old bloke in the workshop'.



It's brilliant! Tweaked the rear spheres off the white one (they've been on there ten years at least) with no effort at all.

Now I like that! Shouldn't be too difficult to copy if you play with metal, either.

Nice bit of kit, a good find. Well done.

Chuffed with it - it's really nicely made too. The inside of the ring is knurled for better grip, otherwise as Mike says, should be pretty easy to copy.

Nice piece of kit.
