Flexible head ratchet spanners

Coming at Aldi..... Might be useful

I need a 10mm one to remove and refit Clio sun roof. This set is cheaper than one spanner from Halfords.
Might get the set ...

Hmm... I smell cheese†....

Might be handy, but after the first one rounds off, replace that *one* from Halfords, then from snap-on, for that is the one you use most often.

With a good set of <yank> wrenches </yank> and drivers/sockets, and mediocre handles/extensions, one can normally bodge something up.

OTSO bodges, I've currently got a monopod wedged in the cockpit locker, bracing a heating-exhaust bracket hard-up, while no-more-nails does it's stuff ;-)

† Of course, cheese comes in a variety of hardness.
 
I have bought several Workzone tools from Aldi and found them to be excellent. Particularly a big rechargeable drill bought for £37 before I completely rebuilt my kitchen. I never expected a rechargeable drill costing so little to cope with large masonry bits, hole saws and the very many drillings involved in replacing roof timbers but it handled them all superbly. I would have no hesitation in buying these spanners and expect them to last well.

Thanks Vic, I shall go looking for those.
I reckon the Spanish Brandy in the advert should be ideal for cleaning them after use.....

Even if they are not the best quality, they are very handy when working in awkward places, can speed up some jobs enormously, even if you use something else for the initial quarter turn.
