| I got some storm points a while ago and thought I might find a repointer locally but couldn't find one. I had a vise sitting in my basement that I've never used and as luck would have it, there are holes drilled in each end. Here's the results: [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]I'm going to tweak it a little bit but it will do the job for me. |

| Great idea,
Don't know if it's a good suggestion, but I would put a Trident 180 on my dart before removing the point. Just to add a little safety as not to damage the dart. It will ruin the Trident 180 but I don't think in this case the metal of the vise will be touching the metal of the dart, as some force has to be used to get the point out. |

| Great idea Nucky, that is pretty much, in principle, how the Unitool works. |
