[modeleng] Re: Spanners

I suspect the only places are Ebay, car boot sales etc.
As far as I know, they havent been made for many years.

I know that Britool still make BA spanners, but suspect you will need to win 
the lottery to afford a set.

Oh, Farnell and RS used to list them, but I bet you have checked both of 
those.

Does anyone know where I can get a set of  Terry BA spanners? Preferably
0-2, 1-3, 2-4, 3-5, 4-6, 5-7 6-8  7-9 and 8-10.
Chronos have a set at around £11, but there's only one of each, which is
not much use when tightning locknuts in places where a box spanner can't
reach. Reeves have some at £26, but they don;t say what they are.. The
original Terry spanners had the advantage that they were thin, and so
could get into those awkward places that nuts always seem to be in....

I had a long  (4inch) 2 - 4 BA confiscated at Frankfurt airport by a dumb
idiot of a German security guard: he must have thought that I was going to
take the aeroplane apart with it. Nit much hope since they're mainly
Unified threads where they aren't metric........Still airport security
guards in Europe seem to be ineligible for the job if they have an IQ
above 50.
