Default spinner removal tool

While there are many remedies to remove over tightened spinners, a little heat and /or this tool is the easiest on the parts and the owner. I have used the tool on one of mine (problems from prior owner)and found it well worth the money in terms of aggravation. I've also heated one to release it. I don't like heating the spinner to get it to expand and relax as I'm no metalurgist and don't under stand the consequences. This tool spreads the load onto all three ears and with a breaker bar inserted in the hole surely is better than beating the bejesus out of spinner ears, snapping an ear and then having a larger problem. If your idea is better, build it and they will come.
