Are you finding the PS4 is handling all your plier duties, Kampfer?
PLSK is shown in attached photo, completely disassembledAlso shown are the three parts that had been modified.
Hey @Kampfer I am having trouble getting the drivers onto the plier side due to the riveted spring bar tensonioner. I have tried pressing it down, but that only helps getting one on. First LM mod for me, really hoping to get this one done. Thanks!

Thanks!Hi, I used a pony spring clamp to counter the tension.If that doesn't work then you should check the shape of yours drivers to make sure they match the shape of pliers.

The drivers will not straighten out without shaving it looks like, is this correct? Thanks kampfer!
No trick to it, I the the spring tension bar is giving you smurf.force it out with care.
The flat head is made of 420HC, your hand file might be smurfed by it, be ware.

I am removed the plier and used the pivot post and original bolt to bolt the plier to the tool I wanted to grind the back off of. This way I lined everything up, 'clamped/bolted' it all together and ground it nice and smooth and easy with a dremel. I used the plier as a guide to get perfect angles and 'template'.I'll post some pictures what i'm talking about later tonight some time.

Time to make a trip to the mechanics.

Here you go! Wow, i must have been over excited for that post. Even i couldn't follow along with what the hell i wrote!Pictures are worth a thousand words...The plier is sandwich between the parts i need to shape using the pivot post. I am going to hit it with a dremel and hope for magic
