Does anyone know the sizes of the 2 original box/tube spanners that came in the TR-3 tool kit? Also, does anyone have any that they would like to sell? Thanks.

Believe one was a spark plug spanner 13/16? and the other a 1/2 x 9/16 AF spanner according to Piggott

That's what I found out too. But those little buggers are hard to find.

edit: Original wrenches to complete a tool kit are hard to find. They will probably never get used but I am missing these items from my tool kit.

My original roll was dried and hardened so I purchased the roll from Moss. As far as I could tell it matched the original in size, number of pockets, and constuction.

I thought TRF had a pretty original one, at least for the later 3As. Not a very elegant thing but I guess that's what they used.

Art,
What I had found as I collected my set was the tube or Box Spanners were 1/2 x 9/16 AF and 13/16 spark plug. The former was 7 inches and latter 6 inches. There was a fellow who sold these two with tommy bar on the web ....however the link to his website no longer exists. britishtool.com was the site, hopefully he is just upgrading because I could use a few things.

109319    Spanner Box 1/2 X .56 (7inch)
109320  Spanner Box Spark Plug

He also sold tool rolls as well. Vinyl for TR3A and 3B and vinyl with jute coating for TR2 and 3.
