9-Pin Vacuum Tube Pin Straightener and Pin Alignment Tool

Description

9-Pin Tube Pin Straightener and Pin Alignment Tool. "A" logo on the back is for www.AustinMics.com, where I design DIY tube amplifiers and kits... and use this tool every time! Print slow (20mm/s) for best resolution. The pin holes are a tight fit for USA and other quality 9-pin "nonal" tubes (valves) with rigid pins. Your experience may vary with modern, cheap import tubes and their soft-metal pins. Occasionally, individual pin holes can sometimes be too small due to imperfections in the print. This straightener does not remove "kinks" from severely bent pins. The tool re-aligns to vertical, and corrects the spacing on pins that have been bent or twisted due to rough removal or improper storage. For best results, insert and remove the tube several times, forcing the glass base to touch the plastic. BE CAREFUL - You can still break-off or bend pins with this tool.
