I’ve seen some similar tools manufactured, but I wanted the functionality, well, exactly how I wanted it. I used a scrap piece of rubber to demonstrate how I’ll use this for running wires through existing grommets.[External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied][External image (uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com), not copied]

That’s pretty cool man. The only thing cooler than tools are custom made tools for a purpose. Nice work.

I’d say it’s not substantially different than existing tools on the market, just made to suit me a little better, and certainly cheaper.

Dude that’s pimp. Who makes a tool like this? Could’ve used this a few times myself.

Lisle and OTC come to mind. Search Amazon or Google for “wire insertion tool” and you’ll see several of the design I based mine on.
