Default RMS Tool

Does any one have an RMS insert tool for sale or a link to those plastic type ones? I did see in some old posts of a guy who made some nice ones, but looks like they sold out quickly.

Thanks

Where are you located.
I’d loan one out locally in the Houston area.

Thanks for the kind offer, but I'm in Canada. Thus I am looking to buy one and ship it to my US drop box.

I have this one that I bought last year when I was rebuilding my engine. I paid $131.69 with tax. How about $75 and I will cover the shipping. Or you could just order a new one. It work fine.

Sorry I forgot to add the link. Here it is.

My Jedi mind trick failed.
I think I'll just buy one at full price.
I'll then have 2 of the plastic ones I can sell.

Funds sent, thank you.
Sorry Tex, I think the distance between us has diminished your Jedi powers
