I was looking at these earlier today and it's great to have a set like this, nice work :) They are by no means essential for me, but they will make life easier which is always welcome.

A lot of people asked for them. We waited for a long time to make them, but when we did we realised how life saver it is...it is just great to work with them.

Another great tool and great job. It is nice to have a company make professional tools for head swaps. Good work and look forward to seeing more of your tools.

I like how easy it looks in the YouTube video. Aside from getting the right set of heads and verifying that they are indeed the problem; anybody with a steady hand can do this! Even my gramma!

For the DIY'r, it would be cool if these could be rented out, say a month at a time. Do the Redbox method. Charge a little bit every day, and at the end of the month you basically own the tool, unless you return it for a refund minus rental fee of course. And you get 2 days free, to help offset transit time and "logistics".

To be honest we still think that in the wrong hands even best tool can not work good.
Our clients are collages in 95% of casses. This can be done withouth this tools, but if You do it on daily basis it helps and saves times, minimises the risk of doing something wrong.
Thanks for nice words!
