I also use a leftover 13mm wrench as a flywheel lock, even easier and faster than drilling bar stock ;)[/QUOTE]

Yep, Mike, I've done that too. Works great.

I like a 10mm wrench - tighter fit.

I did, I bought the Hazet tool. I researched and shopped for a week trying to decide which tool was the best to use then another 2-3 days deciding where to buy the damn thing. I looked and looked but any way you looked at it, the tool was going to be $200-225 depending on where you purchased it and then another almost week waiting for the stupid thing to arrive. That's just one example.
