Today was a busy day. I'll go off the top of my head of what I did use just today. 7, 8, 10, 13, 15 and 24 mm. 1/2, 9/16 and 3/4 " in standard. A few 6mm allen headed bolts. The lifetime achievement awards should go out to 3/4 and 9/16ths as they are common to 1/2 and 3/8 bolts with 1/2 and 7/16ths wrenches following close behind!

Seems 11/16ths and 5/8ths get the nod here when changing hose fittings on oxy-acetylene rigs.

1/2" most at home, 1 1/16" most at work. Least at home 1", same at work.


JOC was right. The 270 Winchester on a Model 70 is a great combination as is the 30/06 and 375 H&H

Most used 9/16, least used 1" . Heard a story one time about a feller who was tired of always looking for a 9/16 so he went to several farm auctions till he had a beer box full of them and then liberally spread them through out his shop so one was never too far away.

9/16 is most common.

I don't remember ever having to use a 13/16.

On the farm we use 15/16 for everything.
least common might be anything under 10mm.
