Find you an old metal rollamajig. Color doesn't matter because all the pulleys on them were silver. Remove and it is perfect.
As for the toothpicks, a little more difficult.
Someone here had a lot of toothpicks made up, he actually sent me a pair for free. However, all my PM's are deleted so I don't remember the name (but if you are lucky he reads this thread).

Was it DonH?
Yes, I believe it was him. Great guy!!
Thanks for the compliment!
Im pretty sure I have more toothpicks stashed in my parts box. Let me check later today (im at work right now).
IF52 - send me a PM with your name and adress so I can send them.
I have rode and worked on bikes for most of my life, even master mechanic at a local shop for 2 years. I have owned 3 Fats now and have no clue what a toothpick is. Pulleys are on derailleurs, but toothpicks? I assume this is slang for something but I have not the slightest. Please explain and/or attach a picture
