Actually... there is a new product by Visegrip that is probably the
ticket. I have seen them at Sears and OSH here in Southern
California... It's a visgrip that comes in 3 sizes... there ends are
shaped sort of like the points of a box-end wrench... so you can clamp
down hard on any sized nut... and without doing any damage... loosen or
tighten it. It's great. I bought a set for my brother for XMAS... I
look forward to buying a set for myself.
