Ken, please put me down for an early one, if still available.

Thanks, Jim

Due to unexpected demand, I will take the alpha 'BumpSticks' to the plater's tomorrow. They should be ready the week after. (<-FB)

Roger should have some by mid-Dec!

Thanks,

Bill..would I need a set, or only 1 set per smart person, to help others adjust their own?

Looks good Ken. I ground down an old wrench but I may get one of your wrenches in the future.
I bought your cam timing tool but ended up being Lazy and eye balled it.
I must have got it close.

I will check it this winter since I will have lots of time to play.

Brad - the wrench is a bonus. The real improvement here is the socket, which locks the big washer to the hub behind the gear.

Greg - thanks!

Glenn - the 'alphas' are going fast - (EDIT: all sold)

Roger will have them in Dec. The only noticeable difference will be a brushed finish on the socket.

FYI: the 'sprocket' design provides a way of holding the socket firmly when installing or removing. It can also be used to (lightly) pry it off if it is tight. The two holes align with #1 and #6.

the link takes me to "bump stick" . I just want to confirm that is what this is being sold as.

[edit] OK so I go back in at "home" and that is what I find.
