Makes a difficult job a lot easier

This tool is very useful and works well.
Being a general purpose tool it has to make some compromises - the prongs that engage with the camshaft pulleys are longer than I need for my engines making the tool slightly insecure in use, I shall improve it by cutting prongs down to half original length.
Have done two twin cam engines with this now and the pivot is showing signs of becoming sloppy - I think ipivot is an aluminium rivet - not very durable - I shall replace the pivot with a stainless bolt, washers and nylock nut which will be stronger and give the tool an extended life.
This is a "cheap and cheerful" tool for occasional use - for heavier duty or prolonged use either buy a higher quality tool or modify this one as outlined above.

Don't make one buy one, it saves time and it works first time!

This is better than making your own cam gear holder as suggested in some Haynes manuals. Better grip and you just need to spend some money not mess about making a tool.

Good value

Good value useful for some crankshaft pulleys also, pivot rivet could be made of a stronger metal but is possible to replace for a nut and bolt

Not quite right

Excellent quality but unfortunately didn’t go close enough to fit the wheels

Awkward doesn't lock

This tool would be great if you could lock the arms. As a result they just pull apart when you apply pressure of limited use

Cam hold

It does the job and price is very reasonable

Didn’t really think it was quality and could be improved but then I guess it would be more expensive
