Default Anyone used the Stomski Circlip Tool?
So far I've lost wristpin 2 circlips and a little skin so I'm looking at my options. The Stomski tool looks pretty solid, anyone have experience with it?

Other options I should consider?

Thanks

Steve is a nice guy. I bought one of my lathes from him.

I've never had problems w/ ciclips (OEM Jeep & BMW, JE on the 911.) I just slide them in sideways w/ my thumb, them flip 90deg into place in the groove. Never understood the problem.

His exhaust head stud repair kit is what removed the 5 broken studs on my engine.. Well made tools.

I used a piece of copper pipe and an old wrist pin to make the same device...
