Double End Adjustable Wrenches

[crguy]

Maybe you should remember the saying: "If you don't have anything nice to say then it's better to say nothing at all"!

Before posting this I personally considered the saying: "Don't feed the trolls", but then had a beer and thought "what the heck, all the pleasant friendly people that contribute to GJ can have a laugh".

Please don't reply with abuse towards me, it's just sad when we're trying to innocently discuss a hobby and people start picking arguments instead of being helpful.

My post was educational, not critical. There's no argument there. Looks like you were looking for an excuse to criticize me. Have another beer and mellow out.

Good point. Lugz gave me a tip a while back that has served me well on this site. At least these type of posts keep the moderators busy.

And that's just what the ignore button is there for. It's personal choice to ignore posts you don't like. I chose to ignore a lot of your posts rather than trying to start an argument over some trivial thing.

Never seen one of these double-enders; one end for right hand fasteners, the other for left handed fasteners?

Metric and standard! Haha

Here you go, BK. Found this smaller one at an estate sale yesterday. It would be an ideal bicycle wrench with its small size.
Knocked some of the worst rust off of it.

That looks almost useless, but would I buy it if I saw one for a reasonable price? Yes!

As a forklift tech that sometimes has to tote what tools I think ill need for a job who knows how far across some warehouse or multilevel building...I love having tools like that! We've started calling em pocket toolboxes. Might not be ideal tools for a complete job, but when youre first going to diagnose an issue, sometimes that's all it takes and saves a lot of time and back strain! Lol.
