The message
from Susan P contains these words:

How useful for car work would one of these flexible extensions
be?

The amount of torque you can apply through one is minimal.


What Guy says is correct, but they are handy for getting nuts
started in awkward positions, they can then be tightened with
something more rigid when they've been run up to touch. Of the
three I'd prefer the first one.


Don't you think the first flexible extension might be so long and so
flexible that it is the weakest of the three?
