Other Mark! (mlucitt, whom you probably don't know yet as he took a hiatus for a while and you came afterward).

Whoops! Sorry about that...

I thought you guys might be interested in the "strain relief" pliers that arrived today. I purchased these on July 30 so it took almost 1 month to arrive. Considering I paid $5 bucks with free shipping, they were a bargain. They actually feel fairly sturdy and I'm sure they'll fit the bill. I sure could have used them this past weekend while I was tearing into that Cambridge Soundworks Model Eleven amp. Would have saved me the desouldering I had to do.

Here's a link to the eBay listing. Seller is electronicsfrom2006

Thanks Mark for raising awareness of these pliers!!

I think it's really funny that an obscure device such as this also eludes description by the Asians who have packaged it!

Gotta love EnglAsian translations!

Amen Mark...some of the Chinese stuff is hilarious...

Yeah, I sorta got a kick outta the one-size-fits-all packaging. At least they sent the right thing!!
