This is one of those tools that would be nice, but it wil depend on price. Most wiring issues, tend to be at the ends, in the connectors/connections.
But I know a few people into pc building that would like one.

I do a ton of custom wiring and have considered trying to make something very similar, just never found time.
Just being able to put together a harness 25' long without having your hands cramp up would make it worth it,let alone the time savings for a flat rate guy like me.
I'll ask around the shop and see if there is more interest beyond myself (I suspect there is).
krusty, are you the go-between? I mean are you taking orders or just referring the product? Either way, thanks for posting this.
BTW, this would work for heavy truck air line too. I have to loom that stuff sometimes too.

Does it work to insert it into a loom midway and feed the wire back into it? Say you are trying to find the wire # on a Deere loom and have to open the loom back 2-3 feet.

I like simple solutions.
The only thing I don't entirely understand is why the handle is so long. I'd like to see a shorter handle so you can fish stuff through an engine harness for example while the harness is still on the engine. You shouldn't need 6+" of grip IMHO.
do you own a hacksaw?

I met the inventor in STL about a month ago. I wanted to pick a few up to have on the truck but couldn't cause I had my DM with me... Its a neat tool
No. What's a hacksaw?

They are a primitive hand tool used to cut things without air or electricity. You have to move you hand and arm back and forth while holding the saw.

Wow, thats a pretty nifty tool. I don't do wire loom often, but when I do, its a real PITA. That thing would work wonders

I had a chance to buy 1 of these last year through a different forum, pre release, and IIRC it was around $9.. I forgot to buy one though.

Is it available in different sizes-Usually I'm only running 2 wires through a piece of small split loom to run to a light or a PTO sensor/actuator.The version shown seems to be for medium size loom.The tool itself is bigger than the loom I use most often.

In this case it seems worth the risk, or money if less than $10, anyway. I'd like to have one.

Yes I am interested. Waiting on the price to make the final decision.
Why wouldnt you pick them up with him there? My DM sees my truck and its not all Matco......they just dont like you to have a TON of outside purchased stuff.
Krusty, Im interested in some for the truck. Whats the price deals? PM is good

That is slick, for $10 or so I'd like one. Only need it once a year or so but what a time and hand saver.
