Tool Rental Board...opinions?
Guys,
Seems a few of us on the forum have a supply of the specialty tools required to work on these bikes.
Instead of going to a board and posting "I need this tool"...how do you guys think a "Tool Rental Board" would go over?
Members that have specialty tools and are willing to rent them out could post a thread of the tools they have...the needy member could shoot that person a PM requesting rental fee info.
I think PM'ing the member with tools would work better than just posting on their thread.
I doubt I'd check the thread I started every day to see who needs what.
Anyway, this is just a thought I had.
It'd help you guys that don't have the tools and won't need the tool but once.
It'd also help those of us that have the tool to recoup some of our money back on the purchase.
Give me some feedback, guys.
Enough positive feedback, I'll shoot this thread to Terry for his consideration.

I think its a good idea, but i dont know how many people will actually participate(the ones with specialty tools i mean) as these tools are VERY expensive and you pretty much cant pick up a specialty tool from Jims for under $300+...
I do hope that people participate but its always ONE bad apple that will sour the deal for everyone.

I don't know how others would do it, but I wouldn't rent my tools for a penny less deposit of what the tool cost me.
I have 1 tool that retails over $700 dollars, I got it for dealer cost at $497.
If someone wanted to rent that tool...they'd have to do a $500 deposit plus $10 shipping. Rental fee would be $50 bucks. When I get the tool back, you'd get $450 of your deposit back if my tool was returned in the shape you got it. Ruin a part in the tool set...you'll be PM'd asking how you want to go about replacing it. You can either have me send the tool back and it be yours, or I could replace the part you broke out of your deposit...your choice.
I have no prob in letting anyone on this board use any of my specialty tools...but if you break the tool or any part of it...you own it.
That's why I'd require a deposit in the amount of the purchase price of the tool. If I never get the tool back, that's fine...I have your deposit to replace it.
It's called "CMA"...."Covering My ***"
