Wrench question
Just seeing if you guys and gals can help me. My brother-in-law wants for
Christmas wrenches. He wants Craftsman 1, 1 1/16, 1 1/8 inch 6 point combo wrenches. I have 1 inch 6 point but have never seen anything bigger in 6 point. At work we have up to 3 inch wrenches and all are 12 point. Does anyone know if they there is such a thing? I've checked Craftsman's and Snap-on's websites but they don't show any. I've found stricker wrenches in those sizes but not combo wrenches. If you know of any please let me know. Thanks, Brent |

Get him a metric screwdriver set instead. Easier to find.

Or just bore out the heads to a true circle. Those come in really handy to remove nuts that have already been rounded off. Koz |

Check with the tool trucks like Snap-on for the larger sizes.

On Sat, 10 Dec 2005 02:02:37 GMT, with neither quill nor qualm, "Tom
Gardner" quickly quoth: "Koz" wrote in message ... Or just bore out the heads to a true circle. Those come in really handy to remove nuts that have already been rounded off. I want a WHOLE set of those! Buy a set of Crapsmans, used them a bit, and they'll soon be just as you want. But, hey, there's a lifetime guarantee. LJ--who gave up the 3-per-week trips to Searz (late '70s/early '80s) to replace lifetime-guaranteed Crapsman tools but never got the company to replace the busted knuckles, lost skin, missing blood, gas used, or time lost to Searz runs... --------------------------------------------------------------- Never put off 'til tomorrow | http://www.diversify.com what you can avoid altogether. | Dynamic Website Applications --------------------------------------------------------------- |
