Default Interesting homemade tool

I came across a cool set of tire levers. They were home made using wrenches of the proper size for removing the wheel. The lever part was made on the end where the open end section was. Never heard about this before. Just thought i'd share this idea. More info and pics is available @ www.ridetherock.com/forums. Look under tech and maintenance for thread called tire repair for dummies. Sorry but i cant place direct link using cell. Maybe someone will help me out there!

You can buy them already like that from a number of outlets.
But doing it your self would cost less than a buck a piece.
