Imperial to metric tool sizes

Post by Vineboy »

In the last wind storm that hit us last week I lost a chart on the workshop wall that had a list of imperial tool sizes down one side and their metric equilivants (spelling :oops: ) down the other. Really handy as some of my gear is one and some gear is the other. Saves carrying a fist full of spanners and sockets around. Any idea where off the net I can print another?

left handed spanners are hard to find these days. I needed one the other day to top up my blinker fluid. Had to make do with a right handed and used it upside down.

Never lend your population tool, it always ends up causing you trouble and costing you money :?
