Cleaned up my garage yesterday. Found about 15 of them, I guess

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 6 points 3 days ago

I bet these could be turned into wind chimes.

Currently working to cut them off so I can use them in my drill

[–] Akasazh@feddit.nl 1 points 3 days ago

Usually the steel on those aren't very good. Why don't you have a simple bit set they includes Allen sockets?

[–] NigelFrobisher@aussie.zone 4 points 3 days ago

I have a toolbox compartment for these.

After doing a bunch of carpentry this year, now I have metric and imperial sets of nice long hex bits for my high torque impact driver.

Something is gonna move, one way or another!

[–] shalafi@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

Found one on the trail yesterday and stuffed it in my pocket. Long story, but I was packing 20lbs., scared, in a hurry, threw it back down. "Oh FFS I don't need another one."

Yep, on top of the dedicated tools I've bought standalone.

One benefit of having bunch of them is providing them to friends/family when they help u assemble furniture.

Faster than having just one person doing all the jex wrench related tasks because the tasks are now parallelized.

During the future apocalypse a survivor might stumble upon this treasure trove of Allen wrenches. They could melt them down and forge a blade of some sort!

[–] Opisek@piefed.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 days ago

It's just that I'm confused whether it goes in with the aluminum or unsorted trash, so I never throw it out.

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I also get hex wrenches from buying guitars!

Those are completely different, built much better and only meant to make tiny adjustments... Cherish those keys....

[–] Tigeroovy@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 days ago

Just add it to the drawer!
