Tools and Machines Breaker bars

surfer8 · 04-23-2008, 10:49 PM

Here's a couple of things I built to remove some rusty nuts in strange places.

canadam · 04-24-2008, 12:02 AM

Right on! Those look handy

Did you have them CNC'd?

Gairloch · 04-24-2008, 12:12 AM

Okay, now that is brilliant! Where have you used them?

wagonis · 04-24-2008, 12:33 AM

Those are WICKED!!!

kbrew8991 · 04-24-2008, 12:36 AM

waterjet?

what do you use each of those for?

surfer8 · 04-24-2008, 06:19 PM

I have access to a laser. If I need a tool for a specific job I generally draw it in AutoCad and cut it on the laser. I used a couple of them when I was putting in a set of Prothane bushings on my 2. There were a couple of nuts I could not reach and get leverage on using normal tools. The 17mm stainless breaker was used to loosen the tranny filler bolt on my MKii Supra.
I still have the dxf and dwg files for them (AutoCad files) if anyone needs them.

Here's a thing that I cut recently that is more recognizable.

Those breaker bars are pretty slick. You should consider making them and selling them...

wagonis · 04-24-2008, 09:20 PM

Okay, what you need to do is make about 100 of those mini MR2's and send them off as good gestures to all the MR2board members.

Or just sell them off, whichever you feel.

surfer8 · 04-24-2008, 10:16 PM

That's a great idea. I don't have 100 of them, but I'll give one to the first five people that ask for one.

wagonis · 04-24-2008, 10:35 PM

*Throws hand up* ME!!!!!!!!!!! Ooh ooh, pick me!

surfer8 · 04-24-2008, 11:06 PM

that's one.
pm me your address. I'll try to find time tomorrow to crank up the laser and cut some.

canadam · 04-24-2008, 11:26 PM

I'll take one

You should put a loop on the end of them for keychains

eckoman_pdx · 04-25-2008, 12:56 AM

*Raises Hand* Put me down for one!!! I think that makes 3 of us...Let me know what I need to do to get it

pothiawala786 · 04-25-2008, 12:59 AM

PMed for number 4.

surfer8 · 04-25-2008, 11:54 PM

one left and nobody wants it?

wagonis · 04-26-2008, 12:10 AM

I bet if you started a thread called "who wants free stuff" people would flock right on over. Unless they read through this thread they would have no idea.

I still got the first one...that's all I know.
