Speaking of DYI tools, does any one have a Haywire Klamper or know where to find them? This is small hand held tool for tighting haywire and twisting it into a tight lock in just a few easy steps. I first read about this tool in the old American Survival Guide Magazine back in the mid 80s. I have never been able to find one anywhere and they may be out of production.
