do u have more than 1, i wanna buy one but they are so simple dont wanna pay that much. sucks when springs fly off everywhere. i am guessing the proper ones would have little grooves perhaps.

Only got one but last time still used the needle nose pliers. Tried for half an hour to figure out which hooks on to what?
I understand its function FC 427 but not its action :-\
