I glued a piece of cardboard, with the correct size hole, from a breakfast cereal box to a piece of wood and used the piece of wood to drive the seal into place.

Thanks Gryphon, I might have read your description somewhere else about this before.... But should the seal be 'in' from flush or proud? Or does it matter on K75? Sorry, I am just a tad baffled... Oh one more thing, does anybody sand the friction plate and the locking plates? In my scooter days that was common procedure on the centrifugal clutch...

The cardboard acts as a spacer to prevent driving the seal in more than where it will be 0.5mm above the surrounding area.

Ah, OK, I see, brilliant, I have cereal boxes all over the house having a small child, so I will have a selection of thicknesses I guess :)

Thanks! Any idea by any chance about sanding the plates and disc?

But you need the boxes for seal installation tools.

It also might be wise—given the ongoing expense of replacement parts—to start searching for a suitably-sized refrigerator boxes to use as housing.

Of course the easy joke is that this project may put YOU Gabe in a big box.  Just figure out how to enjoy the process and you will be rewarded.

There is a difference between factory made and factory made, we buy stuff, that is reasonably OK and is not made with preservatives, sugar or any other sweeteners. Anyway, just to conform, I have made the tool using one of my son's sweater packaging :))) The thickness is perfect and the tool has got a picture of a boy in a... sweater :)

There is a difference between factory made and factory made . . .
When pressed for a recommendation, I always recommend the former.

Sort of like factory air comes from an air conditioned factory?
