Where can I get a tool somewhat like the one pictured?
|
|
|
| I am looking for some thin wrenches, open or closed end, with an offset
like a fork or a spoon, not at an angle, something like the one pictured
here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/CO2-Regulator-O...1QQcmdZViewItem
For a 29mm or 30mm hex nut. What would that kind of thin wrench with an
offset be called (if it's not for CO2)?
Thanks
Liam

| not sure if they run to 29mm but cycle shops have flat offset spanners see
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/COLLECTION-OF...1QQcmdZViewItem
its simple enough to put sufficient offset in with a gas torch and a vice
either that or find a blacksmith in the yellow pages
see if he can fabricate one quite cheaply its also the type of thing
supplied with power tools I have a number for angle grinders
used to lock the drive while removing the discs.

| Thanks for the link, Derek, and the suggestions! I've seen some flat
thin wrenches -- maybe I'll get myself a gas torch and go to town on
them :-)
