Banging on Wheels!
Posted by Tanker-Builder on Saturday, August 17, 2024 11:36 AM

Okay!

    You have this gorgeous model car. Maybe it's one of the re-pops and maybe it's it's one of the throwbacksas some label them. Or, maybe you found this Glue Bomb at a Garage Sale or Flea Market! You can save it. You even have the right Wheel Covers or Mag Wheels for it!

    Ah! But you have those oversized metal axles to deal with. Here's a solution. You might be able to find a jewel at Wal-Mart in the craft's Department.It's a two headed little Hammer.That's right a Hammer.With the ubitiquis yellow hard side and a nice black Cushion side. They can be unscrewed and replaced too!

   Price-if they even have them is $4.00 on clearance. Get one, because the next time a Train Show goes through, by you, the Tool vendors will have replacement heads! It's great for gently tapping those wheels on those metal axles and they won't deform them! They work for tapping pins and steel rod in plastic too. Because they are small, you should not be able to get carried away with them. Don't forget to protect the chrome if it's wheelcovers you have to bang on. No covers or caps-bang away!
