Spring Grabber

Item works well

I purchased the tool to install springs in O scale trucks because I was tired of losing/searching for springs that flew off from using regular tweezers. I thought the tool would be a grabber type tool, but it is actually a tool that has a flat surface with two round raised surfaces on each side that fit in between the coil of the spring. The best way I found to use it is to insert the end of the tool in between the bottom most coil of the spring. Press the top of the spring in to the mount of the truck and then position the bottom of the spring and then pull the tool away from the spring. Sometimes you'll need a second tool to keep the spring in place as you pull the spring grabber away from the spring.

nice

Great tool

Wish I had this years ago
