Shared grommet aid tool.

This was with the Exbolt 65. I'll try to use it with the BG65

Nice, that one look a lot more robust than the one I had. You got those from Aliexpress?

We need one made from one of those memory metals where when you heat it back up it returns to the shape it was set in.

It is really easy to thread with this tool. I've just tried with a BG65 and you can thread through any shared holes (for the knot at the top or on the last shared hole if you want)

Recieved my aliexpress order. Yeah really easy to pull through. Only downside after pulling through it gets bent sometimes and have to snip it off when it gets tricky pushing through the other grommets.

This one is worth trying — it's relatively more durable.

snipping it is still way easier than messing with a sometimes stubborn shared hole. i always use a threader now.

If you’re into DIY, you can try using a slightly thicker steel wire, like 0.2mm — it may be more durable. A 0.1mm steel wire also works well if you control the pulling force; it's thin enough to slide smoothly through the holes.

Just make sure to use cutting wire for phone screen repair — this type of steel wire is not only hard to break but also very affordable.
