One of my (very few ) annoyances in our wonderful casting hobby had been the unscrewing/screwing/unscrewing... the wingnuts on my two Thumler Tumblers. (Sadly, Mother Nature his dictated wet-tumbling (would ice work?) be on hold 'til Spring -- necessitating the dry tumbling.)
A couple of years back I put my Harbor Freight el cheapo grinder to use cutting a slot in a 1/4" drive socket to which I inserted a 1/4" square to 1/4" hex adapter -- enabling me to use my small battery-operated screwdriver to perform this not-loved task.
Not very pleasing to the eye... but it worked.
Seeking a part for my air compressor on Amazon dot com last eve, what should pop up but an awesome looking commercial version of this! Less than eight U S dollars for two!
I thought I'd share... for what it's worth, I ordered the pair with my idea to "retire" the one I fabricated, using the 2nd as a wee gift for a fellow local 'loader. (...and -- the part for my compressor )
