I am not sure if I have ever had the springer on my '48 apart. I would have had to have something like these...maybe it's always been together.

It's always nice to make special tools, but also a good idea to label them so you'll know what it's for when you find it in the bottom of a cardboard box 10 years from now I use my drill press, and a special plate I made to compress the spring fork so I can get the nuts on.

The worst problem I have with making special tools is that when I go to hang it on the wall, I find I already made one.
