RE: [motm] Re: OT - The 5/8" hollow shaft nut driver conspiracy

2004-12-22 by Dave Halliday

Unnnhhh.. 5/8 is _larger_ than 1/2.  The logical progression would be
3/8 (6/16), 7/16, 1/2 (8/16), 9/16 and 5/8 (10/16).

Just checked my old Xclite nutdriver kit (HS-6-18) and it only goes up
to 9/16.  I guess that 10/16 must be like that legendary 11 on the amp
volume dial.

I do have a set of deep sockets up to 1.25 inches plus about the same in
Metric (25mm if I remember) so these would work in a pinch.
