Attached are the pictures of the tools that I use.  The bent wire one is
made from a coathanger and is inserted into a cordless drill that will both
install and remove capstans with holes in them.  It gets a bit bent out of
shape if you encounter very tight fitting capstans so you just make another
one.  The other one is made from a small #8 wrench that I cut off one end
and drilled a hole through.  Added a loose fitting knob the rotates freely
in the hole.  This I use for removing old style Steinway hex capstans.
