Uh, if you're using the Cobra you are using the Campagnolo tools. Cobra made the frame tools for Campy last I heard. I also don't quite understand the whole Campagnolo tool obsession, some of them are good some are not. None of the frame tools are on par with the new Park tools. The Campagnolo tool kit is cool and maybe 20+ years ago it was THE tool kit, but today it's just not of the accuracy or quality of many of the kits available. My old Bicycle Research headset mill is just as good as the Campy and half the price.
