Nice tool thanks

I use a bitty precision flat blade screw driver. Place the little blade in one of the slots and twist.. bingo.

that works! Also could use a larger size sewing needle...pointed end or loop end. Most importantly, put part of your other hand next to the clip so you can grab it before it flies away, to avoid....

Do the removal and reinstall inside a large Ziploc baggie, and you won't lose anything.tditox4 wrote:brownhl wrote:I use a bitty precision flat blade screw driver. Place the little blade in one of the slots and twist.. bingo.

The clip with the slots is an "e" clip.brownhl wrote:I use a bitty precision flat blade screw driver. Place the little blade in one of the slots and twist.. bingo.
e Clip:
And this would be a "C" clip which requires a different tool:
Why is there a concerted effort of hate? And why is it allowed?
Re: C clip removal tool
Do you have a link to the other tool?

Re: C clip removal tool
Thanks ShimanoFan, I was thinking the same thing about the difference between e and c clips, just too lazy to post pics. I can get e clips off no problem, but don't know how to handle c clips?
