Ok, so I ordered a few things from Rockler and saw they had this tool on clearance, so I figured what they heck, it's cheap, I will buy it. Well there was zero directions and searching IAP and Google gave me no clear understanding of how to use this thing. Have any of you used it or know how it works? It does mention about making a custom handle so that is what the threaded part is for. Other than that, I am clueless lol! :rolleyes:

Thanks for any assistance.

It's for adjusting the snap on caps on some of the cheaper kits, the threaded end would be used for a handle, to use it you would insert the end with the pointy things into the cap, and either screw the part that snaps over the nib in or out to tighten or loosen the fit of the snap cap.

Oh ok. Thanks Ken! So I basically have a tool I will probably never use lol. I don't make snap cap kits at all. LOL. At least it will continue to look nice. :)
