Posted a week or two ago about getting some broken snap rings out, finally found the time to fuck with it again. One side popped right out with a pick, other side refuses to come out at best it just spins in the groove. Any ideas?

>> No.2792458

block one end so it doesn't spin and pry outwards against the other end you fucking imbecile

>> No.2792460

>>2792454
you're entering the 7th level of mechanic's hell
i'd probably try to use a little dremel cut off wheel to delete as much of the broken ring as possible. if you're lucky you'll grind it thin enough it to be able to bend it and dig it out

then why did you say "at best it just spins". find someone who has held a wrench to learn you some skills

How about you put down the wrench and learn some reading comprehension.

If it spins then one pick can normally hold it in position then pry one end inwards with another and insert a third to capture progress until one end is free enough to pry inwards and bend with a screwdriver.

Use a blade to get between the ring and the wall. Pry it out enough that you can grab the end with needlenose pliers

Take to machine shop and use a center cut mill to mill (small) access notch to pry snap ring which do not need to be 360-degree supported.

>> No.2793778

>>2792867

This two hooked picks prying on the ends. Once you get one back behind it and are able to pry it out then jam something behind the ring so you can get another bite at it.

Bro just spend 10$ on some snap ring pliers and save yourself an hour of frustrating bullshit with a Dremel, picks etc. you might get it, but your time should be worth more than this and you'll have the tool available for the future plus you won't mar the shit out of the surrounding area

Not the OP but my used pair from like 2000 and fuckall look exactly like that. I've never found a use for them.
Do the tips wear out or something? I've tried them on snaprings before and they're useless because they're like 5 times the size of the fucking E clip.

This is the way.

I find a small tweaker screwdriver works better for capturing your progress but if your picks aren't made of chineesium then they should work fine.
