    Res thread from the dead, but just read the RC car one. Love that!

    Of course I'd probably end up getting distracted and forget I'm running wires with it as having too much fun driving it around.

    This one is over 25 years old. I took a 22mm Yamaha motorcycle wrench and hand filed 1mm off each flat. It's now a 24mm tool that along with a hammer will get any drain plug loose. I don't even get the socket out any more. Make one you won't be sorry.
