Why not just melt down those used lead hammers and recast them?

I find that for routine maintenance I have to remove the wheels from my
snake far more often than I do for my other cars. XKs Unlimited sells a
wrench for eared knock-offs for $30 I'm thinking about ordering. I'm
wondering if anyone on the list has one, and if so what you think of it.
>From the picture it appears to be made of wood and is similar to one I
have the plans for and was thinking about making.
One concern I have is whether or not my knock-offs ('64 AC Cobra) are
the same size as Jag knock-offs. The ears on Jag knock-offs project at
opposite angles from mine, but I'm guessing I could just flip the wrench
over. I plan to call and ask about this before ordering, but if the
consensus is that these wrenches are worthless, I won't bother. I
have a lead knock-off hammer, but they don't last very long (I'm
on my 3rd one) and after making a mess of my original knock-offs with a
copper hammer, I don't want to go that route, either. Beside, a
wrench seems like a painless way to go to me.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts,
Roland
