A Fan holding tool?

[vinver]

In his Bergen Gasser Buildup photos, Andres (miami6) shows a bar drilled and bolted to his fan hub for holding the hub while tightening the nut, is this a homegrown tool or does it come with the gasser kit?
The instructions with my Intrepid say to wrap the fan with a towel, OS makes a crank locking tool, those silly tools that go in the glow plug hole are considered a BAD idea. But the tool in Andres pics looks just right.
Comments? Any reason why not to fabricate my own?
Cheers,
Vince

It is a tool that can be purchased if you so desire from Bergen or if you want to try your hand at manufacturing one that is possible too. But for the price it is best to just buy theirs.The towel works ,,but the tool is easier on the hand and the fan. :WOW
