Yeah, I have several adjustable wrenches, in both metric and
imperial sizes. Some are both metric and imperial size. ;-)

I know it's a joke, but I have exactly such a beast, with an SAE
scale on one side, and a metric on the other.

I was referring to the "8in" on one side and "300mm" on the other.
;-) They probably have the scale on them too (pretty useless, so I
don't
remember).

True. They're not nearly accurate enough. I set my adjustable wrenches
with a dial caliper before applying them to the nut.


Well - that's ok for you guys that call things good enough. For me -
I do
the dial caliper thing, and then I hit the wrench with my mig welder
to make
sure it won't move. Ya can never be too safe ya know...



Safer still, weld the adjustable wrench to the nut!

Nah. I simply weld a handle onto each nut before I use it.
