 |Homemade check ball lapping tool made with a tool steel shank and a \\ 3/8" carbide ball tip on the end. The pocket for the ball to sit was cut \\ with a 3/8" ball end mill then a few drops of Loctite 404 to keep it there.

 +====== Retaining Rings ======
 +These precision cuticle scissors are great for removing external retainer rings. \\
 +Especially the ones on oil pumps or anywhere they are hard to reach. \\
 +The normal ring pliers are bulky, the end points hardly match the holes and the tool usually slips off the retainer. \\
  
 +These scissors have fine points that won't break or slip on the retainers as the normal ones sometimes do. \\
 +You can get the points deeper into the holes which helps to keep the hold more sturdy while removing the retainer. \\
 +These work for removal and installation of the retainer rings. ((photos by Hippysmack)) \\
