Chain link crimping tool
« on: July 09, 2010, 09:51:53 AM »
Anyone have a master link crimp tool that I could borrow for about 5 minutes? Being a geezerly sort, I have usually been satisfied with old fashioned master links. However, my new chain has a crimp-style master link and my new crimping tool seems to want to destroy the link.  >:(

I'm about 75% of the way to installing my spare master link. My grandson and I are going on a long trip together, leaving Monday, and I'd like to get this sorted out.

I've got one you can borrow. Give me a call or drop me an email to arrange to get it.

I have one as well.  I'm just north of Elk River.  Let me know.

Ray took care of it for me. Thanks Ray!

Thanks to all of you who generously offered your help. This Monday, I'll be reminded of this great group as my grandson and I head for the Rockies.
