Where can I buy a set of thin open ended spanners to hold the air strut thread end when tightening nut to the thread , as standard spanners are annoyingly too thick.?

If I need a special spanner, ie, bent, funny angle, thin, long, I just modify one, and replace it with a normal spanner, cheaper than finding the weird ones

(y)Thanks everyone I will go down the grind the end of spanner and replace.The correct tool can make a job a little bit less stressful especially when in a confined space and a surface where easy to loose things especially small springs. I have recently bought a magnet tray proving really useful,as was head torch when working up the back of the combine yesterday(y)

Ratchet spanners are useful on belt adjusters.
Battery grease guns make light work too.

if you had just listened to me in the first place it would have saved a lot of electrons getting excited
