F type spanner

[Scottwood75]

Where can I get one of these with the long jaws for doing up stuff like wastes and plastics without chewing the **** out of them?

 

[biofish]

you mean like a stanley FUBAR?

 

[REDSAW]

nah! a fubar's a crow bar (felt like using one today on toilet tho).

do you mean one of these Toolstation > Hand Tools > Plumbers Tools > Wide Jaw Plumbing Pliers

or a king dick type, found at auto jumble tool stores for around a fiver?.

Na, Imagine a set of stillsons, but with plain fat jaws, no teeth. Like an adjustable spanner but opens up wide enough to tighten the back nut to a cistern for example?

Although I am going to get those pliers too now 🙂

 

[REDSAW]
