wing
nrrt?
Prrt
Many
jigs
and
fixtures have
wing
nuts for
making adjustments
without
wrenches.
But
in my efforts
to
keep them secure,
I
often
tighten them
to the
point
where I
can't
loosen them.
And over the
years,
I've broken a
lot of
wings off using
pliers.
So
I designed
the
"palm
wrench,"
shown al
right,
to
give
me more
lever-
age.
I slip
the wrench
over a stubborn
wing nut or
thumbscrew,
rotate
it until
the wings catch
in the
grooves,
and
away
those
pliers
break
the
rascal loose.
The center
hole accom-
modates a
bolt that
may
protrude
through
the
wing
nut and also
makes a
handy
hole for
hanging
the
palm
wrench
on
perforated
hardboard,
