piston ring holding tool

A tool to hold the piston rings and push them into the cylinder more easily and safely, avoiding unnecessary hits and efforts that could damage the piston or the rings.I work in a mechanical repair shop dedicated to the maintenance of small and medium industrial machines, most of them with combustion engines, I am dedicated to disassembling and assembling them. In the process, many times the conventional tools do not work well when putting the rings and the piston to the cylinder, especially if they are small cylinders that can break if not placed correctly.The proposed solution is this tool that uniformly presses the piston rings and integrates them to the cylinder more easily, aditionally in the whole process you can see the rings directly to avoid accidents.Designed so that it can be printed on any 3D printer and be able to vary its dimensions makes it a very helpful and accessible tool for any workshop that performs maintenance processes of a variety of sizes in combustion engines.
