Default E-clip tool.

Purchased this little bad boy last week.




Have to admit, it's the most useful thing I've ever bought. The amount of time's I've spent what seems like a forever to get those pesky e-clips on or off.

Only cost me about £3.00. Never knew such a thing existed, so I thought I would just put it out there.

Julius.

Tamiya also supply (or at least used to) a little pressed steel tool, similar to that but without the handle, for removing e-clips.

I found it semi-useful. To be honest I have more luck now using the back of a knife blade.

Ohh, I chucked a couple of those away, I had no idea what they were for...

How do you use one?
