Title: True Utility Handspan
Post by: AlephZero on September 30, 2016, 11:52:02 AM: Got this little thingy couple days ago, True Utility Handspan, a mini adjustable wrench + bit driver.

Here are the required photos: :D

I've probably said this before, but I absolutely LOVE TU's packaging, those hard plastic cases are very handy (and waterproof):

When the wrench tightened to it, the bit holder is locked in place, so it won't fall off:

The bit holder is a bit awkward, unless you use something to push the bits out (I just bashed it against my palm until the bits fell out :P ):

Comes with one Philips and one flat bit (have not yet measured, but I assume they are 4mm):

Edit: Oh and forgot to add that as you can see in the photos, the caliper scales on each side are in metric and imperial units.

Probably will be somewhat handy, of course since there's no handle, the leverage will be minimal.

This maybe somewhat useful information brought to you by "Completely Random Smurf with Aleph"

Yeah, it would only work for smaller screws... better get a Brooks spanner
