Image Wrench.JPG moved to Monkey wrench. I'll move it back and accomodate it here if you think it needs it. Drover 20:41, 9 Aug 2004 (UTC)

Image was moved to Pipe Wrench, not Monkey wrench. — Drover 00:06, 10 Aug 2004 (UTC)

I suggest that some mention is made of the different names for the 'Allen Wrench'. Specifically to point out that in the UK it is commonly known as an Allen key, given the fact that it is not used for gripping the outer diameter of something like a normal wrench does.


The page wasn't displaying correctly in Firefox 1.02 or Mozilla 1.7.6. The Contents box was either hiding beneath an image, or when it was closed, the page redraw was causing problems with the other images.
I've moved the adjustable spanner down to it's description and rejigged a heading.
Opera , FF and Mozilla are displaying it acceptably, hopefully IE will too. -- Graibeard 11:47, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Nummular spanner

Please could someone knowledgeable add some info about a nummular spanner?

'Nummular' was the correct answer to a crossword clue "Type of spanner" but this spanner is not mentioned or described in Wikipedia, and a search on 'nummular' does not bring up anything relating to a spanner or wrench.

Many thanks!

[edit] Disambiguation

I think WRENCH needs a disambiguation page, there are actually quite a few ambiguities. Whoever's the wiki expert paying attention here, thanks in advance!
