Hi, I'm Kranzor...

[kranzor]

and I mostly work on bicycles. Some of that work requires specific tools, and that requires money, and I aint got it. I belong to a bicycle club and Im the sole curator of our club junkyard, which gets filled by means of sCRAP. So I've made do with the materials I find there. In comparison to what I see here, Im like a filthy monkey banging rocks together.... but hey, whatever works, right? Anyways, I haven't really done a serious tool project yet, but I'm planning on a tube bender soon, and that leads me here. So far all I've done is a few makeshift spanners. I dont have a picture, but they are exactly like these, only made out of wood and wood screws.

Needless to say, I'm here to drink beer, learn, and hopefully wont muck up the nice place you have here.

Hi kranzor,

Welcome - glad to have you here!

Monkeys banging rocks together? I love it. Hey, they're tool makers/users, too!

Take a look at our Bicycle tag and Tube Benders category pages; you're sure to find something interesting and useful…

When you're ready to share some of your own homemade tools, we'd love to see them. Please post them directly in the Homemade Tools subforum. We'll add each one to the database, as well as to your builder page on the site.

Non-tool items should be shared in the Not a Tool, but Homemade subforum.

Hi kranzor, as you may have seen, there are quite a few homemade bicycle tools here. I'm into bicycles too, and the only thing I can't do bicycle-wise is lace a wheel.

Hi kranzor. Welcome to HT.

I absolutely love junkyards. You'll never know what resources you'll find.

Looking forward to your tubing bender.
