Our Tech Tip this week is from Thomas Keith - Thanks Tom
Installing the new rubber seat diaphragms in seats can be much easier with a
simple tool to grab the metal hooks. Having tried various pliers, vise grips,
screwdrivers, etc., I found it much better just to make a very simple tool
from a screw-in hook from a hardware store. I fashioned a straight wood handle
about 8 inches long to fit my grip and then just screwed a 2-inch hook
securely into one end. You can grab those hooks in a strong new diaphragm
and stretch 'em right over the tiny holes in the seat frame, easy as pie, with
no cussing.
