If you ever need specialized woodworking tools these guys are great. Prices are fair but really high quality. I bought a whole set of Swiss wood chisels from them, prefer them to 2 cherry's, marples, or Henry Adams

Pointing_machine_in_use.jpg

 

I need to make this tool, it's called a pointing machine. It takes a reading of a point in space on one model if you want to duplicate something. Can't seem to find the brass swivel joints. 

 

 

Seems like you might be able to use some drum kit gear to make that. Cymbal stands especially.

Wow, I HAVE TO get one of those, that is awesome. That would come in handy on like %15-20 of the vehicles I work on. Shit, this is all the cool stuff that the dealership guys know about and those of us that dont work as techs professionally anymore are out of the loop on. Haha.

I'm not at a dealer........we like to master everything we can......

 

..........only things that usually stop us are the stupid Dealer Only computer flashes or reprogramming......that's  :poop:

 

 

.....and what's even more shitty is we can't change the battery in a BMW that 09(not sure on the exact year) or newer.......

....computer has to be reprogrammed to charge the battery at the proper rate..............

......................because as the battery gets older the computer changes the charge levels......... :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:  :poop:
