Re: [AMC-list] [AKO Warning - Message fails DKIM verification] wacky wrench needed -- BOX END 12 point crow's foot 1/2" drive

["Daigle, Marcus P SSG MIL USA FORSCOM" <drcool.daigle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

The 1/2 12 pt crowfoot wrench do exist..  they are line wrneches. I've used some in the military, can't remeber if they were K&N or snapon or some other tool brand. Check out each tool mfg website, there should be listings for line wrenches..  I think craftsman might have the line wrenches in the "proffesional" series.
