Default Timing tools

Hi Guys
You may be aware from my recent posts that I about to rebuild my 3.2 after a tensioner failure on the 1st day of ownership! I've ordered most of the bits I need but am in desperate need of the crank lock, cam lock and tensioning tools necessary to do the job. I could fabricate my own but life would be so much easier if I could beg, steal or borrow, hire or otherwise get my hands on these simple tools with out buying outright for something I will hopefully only use once. Can anyone out there help?

Does the workshop in Notts allow one to hire the tools, or must they be purchased?

Has anyone tried to make these tools, they seem very simple to make looking at the pictures, does anyone have any dimensions of what is needed to make them, I have access to an engineering workshop so I thought if I could get the dimensions I would give it a go, any thoughts?

If this works, and it appears to, hope it is of use.
