I hate that...

When what you are working on requires two, or even three wrenches of the same size to loosen. ARGH!

Good thing its cheaper to buy a new set of wrenches/sockets on sale than it is to replace 2-3 of them when lost or needing a duplicate. Don't feel half as bad about firing up a torch and bending it into a pretzel, or whacking it in half with an angle grinder to make a stubbie either!

Murphys law extends to needing an oddball tool, when everything is out of stock, the store is closed... or its 2am and you need it fixed by morning.
