Chief Drive sprocket holding tool

Has anyone used the sprocket holding tool to torque the nut, without having to jam a piece of wood between the chain, and sprock? I came up with this idea a few years back. I let Micheal Breeding see it ,he thought it was a good design, and reproduced it. I have only used my proto type one time and it worked for me. Just wanted to see if anyone has one. Stan

Are you talking about a "jam bar" or something similar? Got pics?

Sorry I don't have any pictures, I am with the 10% of the people who haven't mastered the picture thing. As for the wrench it holds the sprocket only. It can be used to torque the nut without any use of the chain. If you find Micheal Breeding indian sight he has a picture of the tool. Stan
