This is the brake spreader I bought - amzn.to/3AUGazp Golfwrx thread - forums.golfwrx.com/topic/1814... If you wish to have your swing analyzed please send to kleysquestions@gmail.com. Thanks.
Genius!! I just received my $16 gear extractor yesterday. I'm not handy with working with metal ,but found a local machine shop that can cut the U groves. Was about to buy $149 extractor from Golf Works, but you saved me tons THANKS!!!!!
A couple tips. Step 1 should be heating up the ferrule for about 15 seconds, and use a scraper or razor blade to cut it out. Now the connection between the made plates, and the club head are much more tight, direct and accurate. Step 2, The heat source should never stop moving. When you keep the flame pointed at 1 area of the club, especially on graphite, that's when the melting, chipping and cracking happens. The design and concept is nice and will work, but eventually, if you are pulling a ton of shafts, you'll need a way to mount all pieces of the jig permanently. Good job Kley Golf!!
I purchased the break spreader and made the tool as he stated. It worked great. I did not have any problems removing the head off of a graphite shaft. I used a propane torch to heat the hosel and started turning the shaft. What I did find is after you put the heat on the hosel let it sit for about 30 seconds before you start to remove the head. Seemed to work better. I removed 8 heads without any damage to the shaft
Followed your process and 15 minutes after starting pulled the first shaft which came off within 20 seconds of applying heat. Shaft came out perfect with no damage and was ready for a new adapter with a minute or two of hand sanding
I used this to pull 7 heads from graphite shafts from my ping g400 irons. I used a black and decker heat gun set to high for about 60 seconds. Worked perfectly.
Great little video. I always enjoy the DIY route to problem solving. Just a suggestion, but instead of using a gear puller, you might wanta try using a woodworking pipe clamp. I think it would give you a little better leverage, plus with a little creativity, you can find a way to mount it solid so you don't feel like you need 4 hands.
If I can add a few suggestions, I use a smaller butane torch than can pinpoint heat instead of using a plumbing wide flame propane torch. I've reshafted lots of clubs for years using a electric heat gun on low heat for a long time to separate some iron heads, it won't discolor stainless steel and chrome, otherwise you have to use some anti-bluing product to make the head more attractive.
I would have used rat tail files for the deburring. Then a conical Emory sander on the Dremel for step 2. Then some fine hand sanding to polish the plates.

Thanks for showing the entire process, including the mistakes you made along the way. Great DIY video!
I have watched several videos on the subject this looks like the easiest and cheapest way to get the job done 👍🏼
GREAT JOB!!
Watched from Japan.
Very nice idea!
I will refer to.

Great video. The word you were digging for at 2:55 - I think - is Bevel.
Well done.

great hack... thank you!
Maybe a c-clamp to hold puller arm to vise.
Great video. Love it. do you know if you can buy the black metal plates so to avoid cutting?
Get a 1mm cutting wheel for the grinder. It's not a gear puller it's a car brake caliper piston spreader.

Always turn off your torch. You almost knocked it over. If you had something flammable nearby you’ll have a bigger problem than extracting shafts.
Hi, what is the name of the basic black tool? Thank you.
Great idea, however if your going to buy a break puller, you might as well just buy a shaft extractor and save the hassle of making one
Grinding inside the slots is so dangerous
Torch is too hot. Use heat gun.
All this in thong sandals 🩴 ¿😆 wildness 😅
