Bodging is better.
However, be aware that not all Vetus raw-water strainers with a clear plastic top have the large cross embossed on the lid. My Vetus strainers don't which means I had to rely on the strap wrench.

Also a strap wrench can be used to open other jammed lids or spin on oil/fuel filters.
