Anatomy of a WurliTzer Theatre Pipe Organ

Valve Tools

Pin Vice (top) Used for gripping the end of valve stems to turn them in or out of the primary pneumatics.

Duck-Bill Slotted Adjustable Wrench (100mm) has many uses but the most common use is to grip the wire nuts when working on the valves. The middle position holds the nuts comfortably and once the old leather nuts are freed up the weight of the tool is enough to hold the nuts with no pressure from the fingers while the valve stem is wound out by the cordless drill holding the valve stem. Much less wear on the fingers than trying to grip the nuts with the fingers.
