Red face I bought a new spanner...

...and here it is;



And you can fit this in it;



Yup, that's an actual egg!



I bought it for a fiver at a vintage gathering, the guy look puzzled when I said it was going on display in the house some where!

You say its a 'new' spanner, I think you have been misled, a nice spanner non the less.



If you are into big tools this one should sink your boat..
