Any road form / shutter catalogue has the manual or hydraulic or rachet pin removers

Example

http://www.speedcrete.co.uk/crimp-jaw-stake-extractor-i565.html

There is this thing called google and if you type things in it it finds them.....

But I use speedcrete good company, and good range of products,

last time i used road forms to get the pins out i used a D link. i took the threaded pin out of d link and threaded it in the other end to ballance it out. with the d link hanging off the chain slide the part of the d link with no threads on over the pin you want to pull, then lift. this is ok if you have a machine.. i hope you can understand what i am tryin to say.

Whilst necessity is the mother of invention. Improvisation has the potential to injure, or in certain cases even kill. The times i've seen sheet piles pulled with a bit of rebar and the rebar come out ???

Can't beat the right tool for the job, we've got the sheet piles clamps. Simple idea but does the job, never had one fail or slip when closed properly.

chaps thanks for your replys

just testing the water here..a few years ago i made a pin puller and it works billiantly...looks like there is nothing quite like it on the market...nobody has seen it yet.. and i am going keep it like that for a bit...what i have is lightweight no long handles for leveridge..it pulls the pins with ease no matter how well the ground is compacted...not sure what to do with it as i suppose you could call it a invention ? so keep your pics coming lads lets see if there is any thing like what i have made

i dont think its patentable if you know what i mean...any ideas what i should next.... think i need a dragon lol...cheers john

thanks lagerlout for your reply i am a unemployed groundworker cash is a bit tight at the moment so a pattent is not a option....not sure what what to do next with it..i am pretty sure there is nothing like it tho.. i would be gutted if i showed it to a manufacturer and they said it was shite..and the next day thousands were on the production line

Did work with a kerb layer who invented the gravity kerb lifter, Â£700 each he charged for them, still laying kerbs though, must be where the money was
