I have received a couple of ye-olde coke kegs (Mytton) that I want to convert to ball locks, but I don't have the appropriate tool to get the posts off! Is there a member who owns the tool, and would be willing to let me borrow it?

I know, but I was hoping someone would have one I could borrow as all I need to do is loosen them off so I can clean the kegs and replace the posts with ball locks - seems like overkill to buy a tool for such a small job.

Looks like that might the the only option now though (...short of Eds suggestion, but I'm not sure that would leave the kegs in working either)

If you have no intention of keeping the posts you could just try some vice grips or similar?
