Quick n easy biaxial tool

[kizza8484]

Here's a picture of a little tool I made for picking a Medeco M3. This tool is for rotating the pins so their slots face the sidebar's teeth. Its made from the wire from a fishing lure. This wire is really nicely tempered to give it strength and springiness yet still accept bends. Then it just takes a little light filing to allow it to fit into the pin slots.

And for a handle I found a pin vice (to the left in the photo) which worked perfectly. I leaving a loop in one end of the wire ensures it doesn't slip around at all in the handle.



Works a treat
