I only buy wrenches that have english measurements on the right side and metric on the left. That way when I am told I need a left handed metric wrench I have one.
That was confusing for a moment reading hammer and seeing spanner, tools eh?
I think that may be intended as part of the joke, if not we will find out how honest George is prepared to be about mistakes. LOL
@Fernapple pretty saw he nicked it and noticed hence the comment about metric
Do you know if ASE is what we would call, ‘imperial’? Seems a bit ironic for the US to still be using doesn’t it. Saw another post about the subject recently.
@Fernapple Anything can be a hammer.
@Fernapple, @girlwithsmiles For the most part, SAE (Society of Automotive Engineering) is the same as Imperial.
@GeorgeRocheleau That's interesting to know, I did not know the initials.
I know that your pints are different, being a pound of water as opposed to our pound and a quarter. I wonder if there are any others ?
@Fernapple Agreed.
@GeorgeRocheleau ah, thanks for that
@Fernapple American thread types are different than British thread types. I think both are moving towards Metric, which makes it easier.
@GeorgeRocheleau I try not to use my head, banging my head against solid things hurts.
@dalefvictor Yes but it is nice when you stop.
