Default Re: Home made tools

'bout time for some more tools isn't it?

Here's a slide hammer a friend made from a Model A brake rod, small needle nosed vise grips, and a stack of washers that he welded together. I think he told me that the threads on the brake rod and vise grips are the same; it just screwed right in there. You adjust the vise grip opening by turning the brake rod.

It's probably the coolest tool in my entire shop and hangs right over my main bench.
