deepblue Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Hey lads... Im looking for a wrench that loosens/tightens the ring around the toggle switch. I know Stewmac sells them but they dont accept Paypal. Does anyone know where else I can find one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deepblue Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 naw' date=' torque the crap out of it, dig into the ring and finally scratch the wood. I mean loads of people do that intentionally and call it "Relic" lol[/quote'] Very true. I dont get it, but hey...too each his own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually make a wrench for that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoConMan Posted September 17, 2009 Share Posted September 17, 2009 Yeah, but the ones I've seen were cheapies and didn't fit very well. I suppose they work, but I use pliers as well. Shouldn't matter, toggle shouldn't be torqued. DON'T scratch the top!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best way to cut yourself, bust your knuckles, harm bystanders and scratch whatever it is you are working on is to use an cheap, ill fitting tool. I wonder if those big nuts that come with ceiling fan switches fit toggle switches? Those are big enough to tighten with your thumb and fingers, even the polish sausages I have for fingers.
