Well, not directly. ![]()
Not just standards of work - the hassle of finding and engaging anyone half decent, getting them to do what you ask when you ask rather than their simply ignoring your instructions or discovering that they are not, as claimed, registered with the relevant bodies and won’t be giving you a certificate for the work - I could go on but I have often been disappointed with “professionals” for on reason or another.
Might have to get a set.
However, that space is in a different location to that needed for a conventional spanner so, depending on circumstances, you might have room with one where you do not for a conventional wrench.
I think I need a stubby set as well.
The problem is that if I buy a set of crows feet wrenches or stubby spanners this time when will be the next time I need them for a job?
And when I do, will I ifnd that I have just he right tool but metric when I need imperial or vice versa? ![]()
Given that anything other than a ballistic projectile will have a digital control system these days the connection is pretty damn direct for modern weapons systems.
Have one, could not get it wrapped around the nut.
Don’t forget the torque wrench, though - another €90 odd
Never torque’d a plumbing fitting in my life.
If you were doing a few then this is very good, I borrowed one .

Where would you use a torque wrench?
Mediaeval banquet, when the wife is sulking?
Leave the tap/faucet in situ. Everything else that was included in the box, dismantle and dispose of to the déchèterie or a charity, Emmaüs or similar.
Purchase a clic-clac and install and connect in 5 minutes.
Bahco adjustable spanners then? They start from about 4in and they don’t get loose
Something else for the Christmas list I suppose ![]()

She’d go nuts for an olive.
Not from Yorkshire then.
Probably in a state of flux until they clean up.
CU in a while
You lot have some brass neck with these jokes.
Don’t blame me, I was lead into it.
The problem with all trades IMO s they’re not as “simple” as they look.
Many, many years ago, impoverished in our first home, I rented a Kango hammer, went through the kitchen wall, plastered it (the easiest looking and most difficult of all) then tiled and installed an hood extractor in our new (rather than paying them to do it) kitchen. I wish I’d taken photos. But we were happy, and steam free. It was dreadful, but only to our eye.
During Covid I did a bit of plumbing, replacing a sink in the garage. A lovely job if I say so myself. But the fun was replacing the siphon in a recessed tank in our downstairs loo. Keyhole surgery ![]()
