I've always closed my bails by hand, I thought everybody did?

I also learned open-face casting on a Mitchell 300, still have some in my closet.

That is a Bicycle Wheel Tool for tightening spokes. I have one exactly like it.

How does it work if the holes are round?

I've been doing some googling and I can't find the exact one the OP posted but I think it is indeed a fish hook remover. Not that it wouldn't work for other applications.

Looks way too small ....maybe a Barbee size bicycle

Rounded holes won't tighten anything

Not even close...LOL. I do like the fish hook thing. Take care...OTG

I searched “bicycle spoke tuning tool”. Looks similar to some pictured.

Looks like a hook disgorger to me!

It is a tool for Bike Spokes. Mine came with a tire repair kit for my Mountain Bike 25 years ago. I never used it ,it is EXACTLY like the one pictured.

I still have a Mitchell 300. Back in the day they were a pretty darn good reel for the money.

So did I, no resemblance.
Please post a pic/link to what you found.
Thanks

I’m not computer savy. I also tried “bicycle spoke wrench” same results.


I believe this answer, both times it was posted.
