I think I saw one of them there things at a garage sale the other day.
Guess I should of got it. :)
I've added one of them wheel wrenchs to my shopping list, I hope the trunk
is big enough for it, my putter fits in there.
As far as the sharp edges on the wrench go, the other CAD jockeys have
already seen me come in with bloody knuckles from working on cars, so a few
creases on my palms should hardly raise an eyebrow. I swear there are a
few bolts on my Ford pickup that the engineers who designed the brackets
must have destined to become skin-skimmers.
Thanks for the excellent suggestion on lifting to tighten. I've thrown
enough fire wood in the last few years to have the grunting part down
fairly well.

Ah, but sometimes pounding away at something helps to relieve the stress.
Nothing like splitting a few racks of firewood after sitting at a computer
all day.
Thanks,
Mike.
