Simon and others with only metric tools,

You can use the next larger metric size with no problem - especially if 6 point deep sockets are used and all nut-drivers I have ever seen are 6 point.
5 mm works well for 3/16 inch nuts
6.5 or 7 mm works for the 1/4 inch size - there is a slight mismatch here, use a 6 point if you must use the 7 mm size.
13 mm works with the 1/2 inch size.

So if you have only metric tools available, these sizes will work fine - I just checked for a good fit with my set of metric sockets, and the sizes shown above are quite workable.

Ah-hah, I've only ever seen one K2 - Peter PH1PH brought his here in 2004.

The imperial socket wrenches could be a problem - maybe we could buy 1/4" and 3/16" from Elecraft? I think I have an old bicycle spanner with 1/2" for the bigger nuts.

We include these with the kit. In fact they're the same as we supply with the K2.
