I can see how an edge straightening tool like this could have applications in general metalworking and not just aviation. Another tool idea to file away.

I just had to drop you a line and let you know that you aren't the only Raley out there with an interest in aviation.  I live in the middle of Wyoming and just decided to let my IA lapse due to lack of aircraft to play with, enough to keep the Feds happy. Regards, Ed Raley Raley@wyoming.com
