Let’s talk about Allen wrenches.
You can’t really have an RC anything with out Allen wrenches. Except Tamiya with there special slot shape Phillips head. And we can talk about that too.
So there are questions that I have had or have. So I thought I would start a thread.
What do you like?
What don’t you like ?
Who makes the best sets? Can they provide replacement blades?
Can you use a grinder and reshape the tip so they can be used after there damaged?
When do you replace the tips?
And then there is the Allen bolts themselves.
Where do you get them?
How do you sort and store them?
Are stainless better than black steel.
Is titanium worth the price?
This is what I have and use. The lone bit on the right is a worn down 1.5 mm driver. It’s sharpened to a point and heat treated. Makes a perfect tool for marking scratching or lining up holes.
