Good idea

Using this is way better than scratching the heck out of your chrome bits with a screw driver. This is a 'must have' item. Now, be sure to find the right place for it so you know where you put it for the next time you need it.

Good tool

Tool works well as the switch nuts (at least on my Cougar) were not overly tight. I would have tgiven 5 stars accross the board of the tool would have been built like a socket instaed of just having "flats" for a wrench.

Just plain wrong

The prongs on the tool are to large to fit in the slots in three nuts rendering it useless.

WCCC Response:

The latest batch of these seems to have burrs and bevels to some of the cuts, not as precise as they have been previously.  You should be able to file them down a bit and they should work as expected. If you would like you can send it back and ask that we send you one we have verified to fit.
