Hi, 1) I bought one chain whip, made a duplicate from scrap metal and chain. 2) Old pair of BB cups with slits cut across threads to use as a thread chaser. (Use very thin cutting wheel, be sure to remove burrs) 3) Old steel 3 piece hub, remove non-drive flange. Use to hold freewheels in vise. 4) I use plastic body putty spreaders cut to size for spreading stems and seattubes. No marks, no poking ones self with screwdriver, ouch.....
