I made a nice new tool the other day, and thought I should take the opportunity to show it off. I figure I might as well show off the rest of the toolbox, too.

Here's the toolbox:


And my new tool. Can you guess what it's for?

Hi,

you need a set of inner cap remover.

My guess would be that this nifty tool is for pulling the plug from the front of a Snorkel filling assembly.

Wow! What a set up, and traveling abilities too!

Sure beats the stone knives and bear skins some folks use, and watchmakers too! Good going there!

Thanks, the portability is what I really like about my setup. Of course I have some bigger tools that don't quite fit, like a knock-out block and a heat gun.

Some of these tools are pretty primitive, Greg. For instance, the handle on that snorkel plug puller is made out of hot glue

Well, that is really clever! Hot glue gun handle, nice and soft, has give, etc. I have bought quite a number of tools from Dale Bebee over the years that work well for pen and nib repair.
