So there I am with a pack of M12 flange nuts and lots of threaded

Except the first set I try goes from 17mm to 19mm, so I look at my
socket set, same. Another socket set, same. The deep socket set
included with the pneumatic impact wrench, same again!

Had to use an adjustable in the end!




That's the trouble with cheap sets.

Which to be fair, all of mine are! Perhaps one day I should treat myself
to a decent set.

Any recommendations?


My spanners are mostly Britool or Elora and I have never broken one.
Most professional mechanics seem to favour Snap-on these days.
