Monty Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 In the last 2-3 months or so, I came across a thread that may have started off as a demonstration of how to drill out a distributor cap (kit part and sprue-made). The author also showed how to make 90* plug wire boots to go into the cap. Someone in the thread eventually asked for advice on where to buy the best pin vice at the best price which resulted in some great links to various vendors. I assume the thread was in the Tips & Tricks section, but my "search" came up empty. Help?
AlanNZ Posted February 25, 2010 Posted February 25, 2010 Hah, Snap, I was looking for that too. I checked out the local model shop yesterday for a pin vise and it was $40.00 bucks! that's about $28 USD.
Monty Posted February 25, 2010 Author Posted February 25, 2010 have you tried doing a search here? I did a search using "pin vice" but didn't find the thread.

Hey Alan, try Jaycar the electronics shop IIRC they have them for $20 local, only go to frankton ms for desperate supplys
Eric Stone Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 I just pull the blade out of my Xacto and chuck the little bits in there.
MikeMc Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 I thought it was longer than that...... this is what I use
crazyjim Posted February 26, 2010 Posted February 26, 2010 Hey Mike - I have the same pin vise as the one in the middle of your pic. Rusty & worn out looking too! I can't read the manufacturer on the barrel. Can you? I'd like to get at least another one just like it.
