PowerPole "on and off" pliers.  Now and then you need to take a pair of PowerPoles apart or cannot quite get the housings mated.  I modified these cheapo pliers by grinding the jaws so they are offset, and they do the job!
Contact setting tool.  This is a "short-shanked" screwdriver with a ground down blade.  The short shank greatly reduces the risk of impaling your hand.  To short-shank a screwdriver, secure the bit in a vise per the photo and place an adjustable wrench over it.  Whack the wrench a time or two with a hammer and the shank will come out of the handle.  Use a bench grinder to cut the shank to shorten it.

I submitted this to QST Hints and Kinks and they published it.   This is  .095 splined weedeater line and it works great in lieu of a pin.
