Use this simple tool to bend the leads of a TO-92 package (commonly used for low power transistors and other triodes) from a 1.27mm (0.05inch) lead spacing to a standard 2.54mm (0.1inch) lead spacing, to neatly fit common breadboards neatly.
Step 1: insert the transistor in the left die
Step 2: bend the outer leads out and use the wedge to push the leads into the die to form a precise bend in the leads.
Step 3: Use the back of the wedge to push the TO-92 out of the die
Step 4: Press the transistor into the right die. Bend the leads down and use the wedge to form sharp bends in the leads.
