    I've already got a set of those from when they were on offer at well
    under £40. Very useful.
    If I was wandering around Halfords looking for tools that I probably
    wouldn't use I might be tempted but I doubt it.
    In your dreams.

    You should get yourself a set of Torrington spanners from MachineMart. I
    paid arounf 46 quid for a boxed set years ago and they're still going
    strong. No ratchet clicks, just smooth "slideback" with absolutely no
    resistance and no wasted motion. Brilliant tools and they come with a
    lifetime guarantee too. Not bad for 46 quid.

    In fact, I just Googles MM and "Bingo"

    Great for those fucked designs that you need bendable arms for.
    Indeed. Come the day when nothing else will do, you'll be chuffed and then
    find they're THE most used spanners you've got.

    You've always managed to get the chain plates "just" right with no fucking
    about? I don't believe you.
    See, I wos right :)

    The Snappy one is probably better, but not by a lot. It's more a slight
    development of those that went before with an added function (the ability to
    fit the peening drift into the tool). Being able to do all the chain fitting
    single handedly and with no effort is what tipped the balance, not the fact
    that it's better quality or it's got Snap-On behind it. It'd better fucking
    last though, coz it wasn't cheap.

    Ahhh, so you've never fitted an "O" ring chain at all then.
    Are you now the rest of the world?
