I designed this tool to re-align the piston on my Flair58 as it slowly rotates CCW over time, causing failure.

I needed a tool to re-align the piston on my Flair58 espresso maker. Over time the piston rotates CCW in the cylinder and eventually causes the unit to fail as the valve assembly will pull free during operation. The piston can be removed from the cylinder and re-aligned but this new tool makes it possible to do quickly without removing the piston. This is particularly useful when the unit is ready to go and you suddenly realize the piston is too far out of alignment for proper use.
As a result, I created and printed this tool and it seems to work remarkably well for its intended purpose.
I would say that the printed quality could be improved a bit on the top surface but this surface serves no real purpose and does not affect the overall performance of the intended purpose.
