I was doing a bit of tinkering, it is a 1/4" square drive ratchet spanner which was full of rust. I stripped it down and soaked the parts in some rust remover. I reassembled it with some grease and it is now working. The only problem is the little ball bearing in the square drive is seized.

Have you recalibrated it for torque?

Unexpected Aldi trek this afternoon
Needed some fresh draft excluder tape for the inner porch door as the existing had gone brown and in places was falling off. Neither Screwfix or Tool Station had any so it was B&Q, next to Aldi, at a higher than anticipated price. Saw someone in Aldi buying almost £50 worth of their mince pies:eek:

The number of people whose posts I can't like seems to be increasing.

Have you tried refreshing after the Oops message?
