Axle
I bought one at the local markets!, !5 in. Twenty Bucks!!.
Why am i carrying on nuts about such a trivial thing your thinking ?
Because its made in china and unlike a lot of other chinese wonders ive purchased from time to time, i haven't actually chucked it over my shoulder ten minutes after using it...lol. Its actually very good , heavy duty, very tight, and smooth to adjust, (not like some). Very impressed. Now just maybe some quality might start to emerge in the next few years out of the millions of tools
landing on our shores from this country...lol....MAYBE!.
Cheers Axle.

15" ... ????
At least when the worm drive falls out of that smooth action ....
You will be able to use it for a hammer for a while .... LOL
Good score if it lasts .... You can be lucky sometimes I have a few bits of "flying yellow turtle" or whatever brand gear, I dont expect too much from - and they are quite satisfactory for the use given.

I've found over the years that "imperial" shifters always work better that the metric ones.

Yeh Axle, being doing that for years, American English and Europe .
The biggest problem is the 'WHERE THE BLOODY HELL DID I LEAVE THAT" syndrome
