This tool (DAG-1) was my favourite and perhaps most used, after AWS-10. Customers used to think it was magic.
I liked it so much I bought one when I stopped working in bike shops. Gets used a couple of times a year. Still worth it though.
Great bodging. I collected enough bits to weld my own once. Then lost them all as I never got round to it.

Once upon a time, there was a bodger, it was me.
My gear were all over the place, despite gratuitous fettling. Mech hanger looked straight, but ordered a new one anyway. Normally, I pop to my buddy’s bike shop to check alignment, as he has all the Park tools, but he shut up shop a couple of months back. I thought
‘how hard can it be to bodge a hanger alignment gubbins?’
An old bike roof holder donated half it’s box section and an older axle fitted the derailleur thread spot on.
According to the P.A.T -1 (particularly average tool) it was way out....testing shortly.
