Other odd things is right! I have one with what looks like smaller pins than that. It works perfectly to take off those McGard wheel locks because the pins drop right into enough of the slots to turn it. Hasn't failed me yet. I have the big version. I'm not sure if the smaller version will fit over the nuts.

Pocket Hose. I have owned three. Within using each three times they started springing leaks. The 75 foot one with brass fittings goes for $39.99 at WalMart. I got one this spring at a WalMart on clearance for $14. I thought I got a real deal. Now I have about 20 feet left for use watering flowers.

I’ll take your word for it. I wouldn’t want to try and fit this over my nuts.

Hmm, I love mine. Been using it regularly for a few years with no leaks or kinks. Beats the **** out of regular hoses.

Brake spring pliers.

I was a pretty clever kid but for the life of me I couldn't figure out what those things did. Dad had a set but he just used a big screwdriver rather than digging out that tool so I never saw them in use until later in life. That was a satisfying "A-HA!" moment.
