Background of how I picked the head spanner manufacturer !

First of all I asked my contacts in aerospace / F1,where they had small run bespoke spanners / tools made -- They HAD to be British ! ( near Blackpool )

And then I noticed the picture of the owner and thought , yes, perfect for Bristols !! :-))

Deltec Impact Sockets - Deltec Industries

Obviously they are more expensive than a Far East stack 'em high shop but it will be around forever and is absolutely top quality ! I think they were amazed that I rejected the first two or three attempts for being too pretty ! All that shiny chrome look just didn't look right. -- and yes, they work perfectly.

P.S. They only sell these through me as they need a batch quantity to make it worthwhile -- although if the new alternative available is better received I will cease production.
