Default Wing Nuts

Gang,
Other than "home-made", does anyone know of a "wing-nut" wrench that
could be used to go down over about 5" of bolt before fitting down
over the wing nut? I didn't see anything in McM-C, but I have a
situation where a motor belt tension adjustment uses *long* 3/8" bolts
to support a hinged plate on which the motor is mounted - but after a
couple of years, the wingnuts are real tough to turn (if not
impossible) and there really isn't much room for "long handles".
Looking for something with a hole in the center which would drop down
over the bolt, sit on the "wings" of the wing nut and allow turning.
Thanks.
Ken.
