Ah....once you knows it's it's obvious. The 20p for size confused me.......I thought it was two bits of metal lying on top of one another.Errrmmm, a square?
Feel like a dummy now. Lol

It's tiny! Thinking of getting a tiny toolbox for tiny tools to go in my normal sized toolbox so my tiny tools have something to aspire to... Sad, I know

Fab!
Was speaking to a former engineer guy last night, my boss so to speak, he told me of a time a company in the US sent a drill over, to Dormer I think, they claimed it was the smallest drill in the world... It got sent back with a hole drilled through the middle of it

Similar to one of the midlands tube companies (Accles & Pollock?) got sent a sample of the smallest tube in the world, they sent it back with one inside it

I heard a similar story with a tube manufacturer, Accles & Pollock. The story is donkeys years old, returned it with another tube inside. Be interesting to find out if either is true.Fab!

I've got ten of those, for free. I've had them all my life.
