Title: Really-Cool Multi-Tool
Post by DragBikeMike on 10/25/20 at 17:02:41

Kamelryttarn was kind enough to send me a sample of his new multi-function tool. It’s a clutch hub holder, flywheel holder, and steering stem spanner all wrapped up into one easy-to-use tool.

For some strange reason the sight isn't letting me upload the file. Will try again.

It fits the clutch hub perfectly. You use the two spacer plates to provide enough stand-off from the basket; and the hole in the center of the tool provides ample clearance for the socket. I locked up the output pulley, put the trans in 5th, and reefed on that wrench pretty darned hard. It’s got a solid grip on the clutch hub. Should make clutch removal a walk in the park.

The flywheel holder also fits perfectly. You need some spacers as shown in the picture (two stacks of washers should suffice) and a couple of 8mm bolts. A 46mm socket fits through the hole with a little room to spare. Once the tool is installed it will make short work of removal and reinstallation. Torqueing the nut will be a breeze with this tool.

The spanner fits the steering stem nut like a glove. No more hammer & punch. I can work like a professional now.

A BIG shoutout to Kamelryttarn. I love this thing. It was a great idea to incorporate a variety of functions into one really-cool multi-tool.

Thank you all so much for your kind words. It feels good to be able to contribute despite the fact that I have never worked on a combustion engine before.

I will post the DXF-files in this thread as well as my original thread. The distance needed for the clutch spacer is just under 10mm so if you cut the tool in a 5mm thick sheet you need two of them.

Very nice, a practical well thought out multi-tool for a Savage!

How much would these be if a small run was made? DXF files don't seem to work on my computer and could these things be laser or water cut?

I can see about making up a few.

Steel or Stainless wrench part.

Aluminum 10mm spacer.

2 Aluminum standoffs - How long would these need be to clear the ridge of the flywheel?

Maybe include a fork tool in the mix.

Actually I was going to make one for myself with an added section to use on the timing inspection cover and the top fork nut. Its a pain to put that nut back on with the extra tension of the spring spacer. Maybe using this will be easier to control getting the first few threads going.

They can be cut by pretty much any technology. Water, Laser, EDM...

I think DragBikeMike wrote that the standoffs had to be 38mm high for the flywheel

For a small run Im currently looking at $70 a set.

That would be,

1 - Zinc Plated Tool steel Clutch Tool
1 - 10mm aluminum spacer
2 - 38mm 8mm bolt spacers
2 - 8mm bolts
4 - 6mm bolts

Im looking at some other options to see if I can get the price down.
