Don't suppose you have a rocket tool (is that the correct name?) for removing 1" headsets that I could rent for beer?

chris crash · 4th August 2008

no, but i have other ways of getting it out, and a diy rocket is easy to make you just need a slightly less then 1 inch die piece of pipe and a hack saw.

Dammit · 4th August 2008

How would one combine the pipe and hacksaw to create this tool?

chris crash · 4th August 2008

hack saw a + across one open end of the pipe, saw about 1/2 to 3/4th the way down, then bend the four bits out wards a bit, file all the rough parts smooth if ya can be asked, or just wear gloves when handling it.

use as you would a rocket

31t®um · 4th August 2008

a flat head screwdriver and a hammer works well if your careful.

Dammit · 4th August 2008

True, a rocket tool makes life very easy though!

Pull through>pings into place>hit with hammer>job done.

Thanks for the advice Chris.
