Worst part.... two months later you go to put that hoist back together and go "where did that part go.... " Big Grin


My son was rebuilding his mountain bike before a weekend race. A bunch of R6 bearings were sitting out (he has a bad habit of leaving trash on the work bench). Hmm, 5/16" ID 7/8" just the size for a "pusher" tool on the lathe.

Grabbed some 4140, millings to fit, reamed a one though under hole. Have some 5/16" pull dowels (ends are threaded 10-32). Viola simple little tool....

He got back from mountain biking weekend.... "I left four bearings here, only found three.... " (He is very annal about bike maintenance, didn't realize he used different bearings for racing). I just smiled (last time I went crazy looking for a tool, he fessed up he TOOK IT TO WORK!). Arrrrrrggggggggggggggggg....
