Post by: ron350 on April 28, 2024, 03:19:11 PM

SS is soft so it may be hard to find a better quality set like those.  I've bought some dental picks for fine work. They are some sort of alloy (magnetic) but they haven't rusted in the years that I've had them.

 I have had this stainless pick for many years with no bends or breaks. It came off the Snapon truck many years ago and one end has a 90* bend and the other end has a carbide scribe point welded on the stainless.

Have always wanted something like this with a 90* and just a handle on the other end..

A twin to my old SO set, one of which went AWOL somewhere along the line.

  Yep I have used that rounded hook end of that snap-on pick to remove and install several GM fuel line o-rings. Used it last week to remove the timer knob on my old Kitchenaid (Whirlpool) washing machine. I sure dont want to damage that irreplaceable snap-on hook working on a washing machine so i ordered that cheap pick set.
