Default harbor freight ball joint separating tool

just quick report:
got a HF ball joint separator thinking it would work to separate a drill
chuck from a damaged arbor - drilled a hole through the arbor, put a pin
through it and clamped it down with the chuck body just above the vice jaws-
put the separator (looks like a tapered fork) against the chuck - smacked it
a few times with a hammer, and the tool split in half - so the tool is
worthless. Tried a good quality (name brand) tool and it worked quickly
and easily.

Next step, return tool to HF and get refund.
