Tool library / tool exchange. Post what you got and where you are

the strongest magnets i know are inside computer hard discs. you will need Torx screw driver tho

yep neodymium magnets are the strongest permanent magnet .

thanks for all the suggestions.
I got the magnet ball out of the seatpost bolt. I tried to epoxy something to it but it didnt hold.
I was going to drill the bolt out and replace it with a new one but then I just drilled a tiny pilot hole into the bolt next to the ball and using a safety pin I popped out the magnet ball.
saved the bolt and damage to the frame with a tiny hole placed in a strategic location.

Has anyone got one of these:

To fit one of these:

I'd like to borrow it later this week, in exchange of a beer and good vibes. Ta.

pmd. got one of those.

Anyone have a set of cone spanners with thin jaws? I need to replace an axle.

Cheers.

Got some home made ones in E8 if that helps.

Thanks. How home made are they?

Ground down spanners, I've replaced an axle with them recently. What sizes do you need?

cone spanners are something you might want to invest in. condor has campag ones cheap.

Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it. But might actually make the investment and buy some. They're so useful.

I want to perfectly true a wheelset I've just built as well. Does anyone have a spoke tension gauge they could let me use?

Cheers

They have two truing stands and a spoke tension metre. And they are great people.

anyone around N17/ Finsbury park that has a headset press. I lent my home made one out and haven't got it back.

I've got the bits necessary to make a home made one left over from when I bought mine (so threaded 13mm, nuts, washers, bits of innertube to keep centered). It works perfectly, couple of quid/couple of polish beers? Or just borrow it.
I'm in Forest Hill if you want it.

Has anyone got a campag BB tool to fit Miche BB? In the Archway area.

I have a crank puller, chain breaker, wrenches, alans keys, bottom bracket wrench, in NW6...feel free to drop a message if you're in need and in the neighbourhood!

Anyone been on or used quirky.com? its a crowd sourcing website for product design...if you have a good idea for a product that you think could do well on the market then do a quick sketch up and post it on their site, i remember seeing a thread on here that was something like 'my ideal multi-tool' there were some really good ideas that these guys could actually make and if you submit a chosen idea, you get a percentage of the sales! go crowd sourcing! (i personally like the idea) http://www.quirky.com/?r=ef551d5b071a11ea5c97efd3a558e0d7

I, too, also need a campag BB tool to fit a Miche BB. Anyone have one that they can lend me who lives/works near London Bridge/Peckham or somewhere in between?
