Clevis Tool
This is one of the handiest tools I’ve ever made.

Years ago I tried a couple clevis tools that were just too short or awkward. So, I decided to design my own. One of the toughest jobs was reaching in to get the clevis off of a bellcrank in my older planes and ones like my SBXC. It needed to be long enough, but not too long.
I made a bunch over time. You should have a number of them for the shop and tool kit. It saves you from saying “@#! I wish I had that with me.”
