As someone who loves tools, I'm always on the lookout for something new. This time, I found something old...
At a local yard sale, someone was selling a nice little set of Craftsman open ended metric ignition wrenches. As soon as I saw them, I knew they'd be perfect for wrenching on an RC. The yard sale asking price was only $5, but I did what you are SUPPOSED TO DO at a yard sale and offered less. I walked away with my prize for only $3.
I've only had these wrenches a few weeks and already used them a few times. They are small, light and quite thin. The two different angled heads are usually able to access any location I need. Although I have RC-specific metric wrenches which cost a lot more, I find myself going to these over those.
I bring this up to our forum because even the new retail price of this set is very affordable at only $12 USD. For someone in this hobby who still needs a set of small metric wrenches for their kit, or who wants a better set, these are awesome! Highly recommended.
