Thin 3/8" wrench

Sheesh! Airplanes are apparently a bargain....

Thanks for the information about a second class of bike wrenches.

They make some very nice thin tool steel wrenches for Bikes. And they are
NOT for emergency use. Check at your local bike shop and look at the bikes
for $5 to 10 thousand dollars.

That's WRENCH, not wench you dirty minded garlic guzzling cigar
chomping
old
pharts.

I've got a very thin (0.050") 3/8" wrench that has been in my toolbox
since
Eisenhower. Over the years, it has rounded its jaws off to the point
where
it is fairly useless. The maker of the wrench, one H.H. Smith in
Brooklyn
NY no longer makes this tool.

Other than taking an ignition wrench and grinding it down, does anybody
have
a source for stamped thin metal wrenches?

I don't know where to buy a good one; but if you do have to grind down
an
ignition wrench, which is quite likely, be sure to use plenty of
coolant!

Otherwise the result is a very soft wrench, which is little better than
those stamped and punched things that are sold for emergency repair of
bicycles. :-(
