Best Tools I Ever Bought

[Canuk]

Every toolbox needs a pair of these Campagnolo lovelies.

Vintage VAR Atomic wheel jig

Thinking of buying this but there's no makers name etc. It looks pretty decent, any ideas? There's a muc off decal on it, but that's for decoration I reckon!

Looks flimsy and overly complex.
A jig for an engineer not a mechanic.
You'll struggle to fit axles other than qr

Possibly this Chinese knock offs…..

Yeah it's I just discovered it's an Ali express knock off. I've got an 1920s cast iron French job which does the trick for most wheels, just goes to show the great Chinese bicycle parts and tools swindle horse from strength to strength!
