ummm.. is that also known as:, ... "busting a nut"? ... if so, I never needed a special wrench for that at all! Now exact "alignment" is a different matter altogether! My Wife says my alignment-tools are still workin just fine!! Ive aligned her radio several times!! Selectivity & sensitivity were GREAT!! Everything was fine till I mentioned the vintage IF cans were smaller than usual! Pls excuse my sense of humor!, your alignment inventions are GREATindeed Icon_wink !!
