22mm. I have a combination spanner, as some of my posts are the star shaped ones.

I use the 22mm spanner :thumb:

Actually a 7/8"

Not a common spanner size, although I managed to get a rachet ring spanner from Ebay for it. I think it (was) a common size used in aeroplanes.

I use a pair of rusty pliers. Pliers are great cos one size fits all, and they've also got the ability to make nuts & bolts nice and round thus removing the dangerous edges.

I come across these types of rough a**e practices regularly, I find the best way to educate Is with a swift rap across the back of the Knuckles with a 12" steel ruler, then educate in the correct tool for the job, a couple of wack's is all it takes

them look like a pair of mole grips....

or a barnsley hammer... :hmm:

They ain't mine, none of my grips are allowed to get into that sort of state.


Some of my Cornelii have 11/16" posts.

If you've only got metric that's an 18mm spanner (or a worn 17mm).

I come across people tightening things up too much and stretching the threads, either that or rounding allen head bolts, off, right gets on my chuff at work.
