DEPENDABLE KEY-HOLDER

Allen keys are indispensa­ble in any workshop, but they are often difficult to turn in tight spaces, especially if a long reach is needed.

To solve this problem, simply cut the long end off an old Allen key, and use it in a standard socket wrench, with an extension if needed. It can even be used in a socket adapter for a power drill to remove long Allen bolts quickly.
