    Upgraded 1/4" drive socket set

    I have flogged all my socket sets into the weeds with this conversion, and constantly get hampered with access to nuts and bolts and no room to actually swing a socket, so found this product which is a 1 deg swing 'zero turn' socket wrench that looks like it will do the trick. Its mechanism is ball detent instead of gears which is interesting - will be keen to see what sort of torque it can handle, but the youtube video is very impressive with severely limited swing and still rotates the nut.Zero turn socket set.png

    These are also avail as wrenches only so you can get 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" drive units, plus they have a range of ratchet open end/ring spanners with the same micro adjustments capability.

    I used it today to reinstall the under tray side boxes and wash a benefit for sure, awkward bolt positions and had to swing a spanner. Happy with the set for sure
