I bought a bike for my daughter a number of years back. The assembly
instructions listed the tools that would be needed; including an
adjustable wrench. I'm no grease monkey, but I have basic sets of
sockets in English and Metric sizes. I figured the "adjustable
wrench" recommendation was for those poor benighted souls who keep
their entire complement of six tools in a kitchen drawer. A "handy"
fellow
like me
wasn't going to fool around with an adjustable wrench.

Turns out the nuts - TWO different sizes - were non-standard.


Oh yeah - a real handy guy does have a few different sizes of
adjustable wrenches around at all time. I've got toos - lots of
tools, but I also have and handful of adjustable wrenches. Ya just
gotta know when to use 'em and when not...


....and apparently ya gotta know how to spell - or at least how to proof-read
before hitting send...
