Dragons Den - Pump Removal Tool Invention

[stevetheplumber]

my problem is once suckered in to buying tt=hese gadjets i cant throw them away and they join the might come in handy box in the garage where they can gently rust away whilst sniggering at me every time i walk in the garage

tools evolve very slowly to meet the needs of a trade 10 years ago no one had plastic cutter now everyone has a pair and my wiping kits is moldering away n the back of shed
i think the last tool i bought that was actually an improvement was the rad tail ratchet spanner which is good but ive still got 2 different ud and two angled type for times when the ratchet dont fit or i need to remove the old type airvents
before that it was pipeslices which are great but i think it was them that have given me a bad wrist bit of rsi as theres no leverage and you have to grip them tightly if the blade isnt good
if theres anytool developers out there looking to make a killing id suggest putting a light into a range of levels ,average age of all trades is going up and everyones eyes deteriate with age and an illuminated bubble would be great its often a pain rigging up a light just to scribe a line

I've often thought of the bubble with a light.

i find if the nut is seized on the pump connections i can turn it but the pump spins with it

nightmare it is to something’s remove ceased pump nuts that have been on systems for 20 years plus that are also usually close to pipes and hard to reach, they would have invested in this invention but then again they aren’t plumbers lol

Ever tried this. Also, I use my sds hammer drill (rotation stopped of course) with a chisel bit in. Either 1 never fails [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CHfYzVrCCs]YouTube - DIAMOND SAW BLADES FOR DREMEL TYPE 02[/ame]

Just noticed your location London/Lincolnshire. Can't you make your mind up or girlfriends in both parts.... or wife in 1 & "go where the work takes you" I was in Sleaford until 3 years ago & did 18 months of commuting/digs so as to help with the kids the schools. Up to 5 hours back up to Sleaford on a Friday & only 2 hrs down to London at 2am. Never again
