I definitely won't be using a clamp; so far, don't need anything except a straw from a WD-40 can.

The clamp looks very cumbersome, I think the tool RJ designed is perfect.

This looks better than the Irwin. ;D

In five years of owning my R9, I've never used the tool yet.

Never felt the need, or had an issue.

I finally broke down and bought one for me about a year ago when I ordered one for a freind.

I have no Idea where I put it in that abyss of cave of mine.  ;D

It's time to order another one to have on hand.

Yep.  Never know when one might need one.     :)

Like I said, I never needed one, or ran into any problem with take down or reassembly -- but I'm sure it will be one of those deals where once I use one, I'll say " how did I ever do this without it ? "  :D

Exactly.  As I noted above, I don't use one either, but good to have.    :)

You have to love that mentality. I do it all the time.

We all get stuck in out ways.

Sometimes you don't know how hard things are until you find an easier way of doing it.

I was told by a tire changer one time, when I said to him: you make that look so easy; he said: when you have to do something that is hard and you do it all the time, you find an easier way to do it.  Basically what you said.

You never know where advice will come from, young and old.

The older I get them more I started listening and the more I started learning.

I read a bumpersticker one time that read:
hire my teenager he knows everything.

That's interesteing, when I was a teenager I thought my Dad was the dumbest guy in the world.  Then, in my late twenties he sure seemed to be one of the smartest guys in the world, and just getting smarter as the years rolled by.

That's amazing.  I always knew my Dad had wisdom far beyond me and his Dad did too;  knew that from very early school years; means a lot.
