I bought a bike for my daughter a number of years back. The assembly

their entire complement of six tools in a kitchen drawer. A "handy"

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...
