1/10 scale Shock plier multifunction tool for helicopters with ball joint feature for ball ends commonly found on rc turnbuckles.
I use this for 1/10 and 1/8 scale cars but it’s obviously not perfect for 1/8 scale.
It does make the job easier and protects your parts.
First I remove ball using the BALL OUT feature. BALL PUNCH!
The Tekno version has a BALL IN feature which this does not. I tried. I failed haha. Have a laugh anyway. I drilled a really small hole in the opposite end (off camera) to push the ball back out and free the rod from the tool.
You can buy it from AliExpress it was less than $10AUD
