Valve Spring Compressor

[gagvanman]

Before owning a bus I used to do a lot of work on old Fords. Now I am refurbishing my aircooled engine my old valve spring compressor does not fit. So made one out of a piece of steel tube and a nut and bolt to use in my drill press. Worked a treat.

Nice work geezer, I've been looking for an excuse to buy a drill press - down Sarf we call 'em Pillar Drills

Neat! Always good to make something that works for hardly any cost. Very satisfying.

Have a beer! :mrgreen:

That's a great idea!


...that I wish I knew about a couple of years ago before I bought a beast of a spring compressor big enough for aircooled heads
