New ball joint tool-interested? GB??

hello everyone-

I'm not sure how many of you do ball joint replacements. I didn't like the pound it out method on my W124. I looked at the Autozone tool and machined a sleeve/adaptor so I can use their tool on my W124.

I've talked to a machinist online whom likes doing these types of tools. Is there interest in doing a group buy/make for these? I'm guessing cost will be somewhat relate to how indistructable you want them. If we can find the right thickwall tubing cheap-then it's easy lathe work. To make them durable, heat-treatment would be nice.

If there's not much interest, I be happy to post a crude drawing.


Michael
