Hi Guys

I'm after a set of "thin" metric range from small (8mm) wrenches/spanners to large (32mm)

Here is a link to what I am after:

Is there somebody in Sydney that sells something like these?

I know that I can grind down a standard spanner but I really don't want to do that.

Regards
Greg

I think your clue is in the link.
It says they are used in Pushbike and aviation repair.
Try asking your local pushbike shop where they got theirs.

In Australian English we don't refer to them as wenches but rather as snappers.
