[C320-list] Stuffing Box Wrench

[Pat Ireland]

Picked up a set of open end wrenches from Harbor Freight and an adjustable
plumbing spanner.  The open end fits well.  The spanner is hit and miss.
The open end wrench set is designed for pump maintenance.  It has a straight
slott open end on one end and a side entry slott open end on the other end
so you can access nuts that are slightly rotated.  You could get two
wrenches of the same size by cutting the handle in middle.  Have not had
the guts to make the mod.  Don't want to destroy the set, this application
is why I purchased it.  Note the set is about $50, so a pair of plumbing
spanners is the cost effective fix.   Fix it guy in the marina has a well
worn set of pipe wrenches that he proudly carries from one emergency to the
next.  Scrateches on the nuts beats too much water in the bildge every time.
