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.
