Two New Tools I Dig

[Rottster]

This little wrench has been awesome, the steel is obviously hardened as I've had no mushing or spreading of the ends. Although it looks basic, it is well made and jaws are to spec. The other set is 8" hemostats/forceps I've been super happy with. I have very large hands, XXL in any glove size and these work great for me with ample room for my thumbs and forefinger plus the teeth mesh perfectly. I do think the curved one of the sets hinge is a little tighter, but it's more than fine for working on our RC stuff. In my research on Pean Rochester Hemo's I did find higher quality stuff, but they start at 30 bucks a piece and beyond 200.

I need a turnbuckle wrench.. A local brand herr KC RC makes one but in aluminum 7075. Still aluminum and i feel its the wrong material for a tool

I've got this. It's a bit small, but does the job.

7075 is some tough stuff but high carbon steel is key as it can be made much thinner. IIRC I paid under 10 bucks for that Eco Power wrench and use it for turnbuckles as well. MIP makes some really, really nice turnbuckle wrenches with great handles too... I'd probably go that route if you're racing but you'll pay.

I have that integy full set too. highly recommend! That and integy wheel balancers are the ONLY thing I'd ever recommend from that company. Never use their parts!
