David, Not sure if they will do the job for you but I find the GearWrench 85035 35 piece MicroDriver Set very useful when working on boats. I also find the GearWrench ratcheting wrenches useful. They ratchet with as little as 5 degrees swing. Very nice when working in tight spaces. Dennis C.

Hi David, If it hasn't been mentioned for max torque with less chance of stripping make sure you go with a 12 point closed wrench instead of 6. Ratcheting closed wrenches are a pleasure to work with but for high torque the ratchet can possibly get damaged.. I'd go with a plain ol' forged one

Yes, as a matter of fact the Alden wrenches are sized like normal wrenches. The ones that we made with the grad students were fixed jaw. The pivoting clamp lower jaw is an improvement to the concept. I don't have any in my tool box. Neil Schiller 1970 Redwing 35, Hull #7 (CC 35, Mark I)
