Funny timing I was literally coming on here to see if @Norvin is still making these tools? If not, does anyone know for sure if these work: https://www.espressoparts.com/products/la-san-marco-lever-piston-tool

It's pretty expensive for what it is, especially if it's not for definite that it will fit

Btw Jony I am currently using this Boa: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0011E4QU4/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o08_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 if you can find similar on Amazon etc.

It does a good job undoing the piston, but I would like Norvin's tool or similar, for putting the piston back on, to make sure it goes on a bit tighter than the Boa does it

I still have the stuff needed to make more so I can make another batch if there is interest.

I stopped making them as I was surprised at how little torque was needed to unscrew the piston in my brand new Leva and thought the tool was a bit OTT. Now that the machines are older it is possible that the piston will be seized in and the tool may be more relevant.

Jony If the pistons in your Vostok are really stuck you can borrow my piston tool if you sort out the return postage.
