Sell my nutsert tool? Are you crazy? I bought mine at the local Total Tools shop,Fascor brand it does M4,M5&M6 for $80 very sturdy and a bargain at that price IMO.

Sorry Shane I haven't 🙁 but its an awesome tool!!

I was told by a tool shop near work that they can order me one in at a cost of $60-$90,i only need to do 2 nutserts with it so hopefully someone has a second hand one they dont want????

How desperate are you and what size nutsert are you after. I can lend you one but I'm at Nth Richmond. Still wouldn't cost $80 for petrol!

If you only have 2 Nutserts to do, you could set them using a H/T bolt (8.8 or cap screw). Use a thick flat washer under the head, and a bit of moly grease on the thread. Don't tighten the bolt too much as you may strip the thread. God luck. Greg

Greg thats exactly how i read on one site how to do it,if it dont work i will have to find a tool.

It'll work, just don't rush it. I've done a few this way. Greg
