Rivet tool | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Here is something I bought off of Ebay some years ago this one is a little big sometimes but has helped me many times it appears to be a cheap gear puller that some one took the middle piece out and cut one side piece flat and the other tapered a little.

Personally if I was to make one of these I would go a little smaller size like 2" maybe 1 3/4" and as you can see you probably wouldn't be that hard to make.

It was never a gear puller. It's a 3 way clamp modified.

I think they come in smaller sizes.

Yep that looks like it was that thanks Elliot

You're welcome. It looks like a fairly easy modification once you get the "bells" off each of the legs. A little grinding and/or filing and voila.
