NEW PRODUCT FROM MERCER
As most of you know I have been developing a line of valves. Starter valves and check valves for now with more to come in the next year.
With that in mind I have often thought why some of the other suppliers have never made special wrenches to fit some of their special fittings. I have observed fellows at meent trying to tighten up spanner nuts using a set of slip joint(Channel Lock) pliers.
I have made a wrench to fit the spanner nuts on the starter valve.
There are made form die cast metal to keep the cost down to a reasonable level. Powder coated they will help in keeping the nut looking great and not all nicked up from the pliers.
For more information on price refer to the Live Steam Market Place on this forum.
They are $10.00 each postage paid in the USA Foreign shipping extra.

Re: NEW PRODUCT FROM MERCER
I should have mentioned this but My wrench will only fit Mercer spanner nuts. They might fit others but I can't guarantee that it will.

Hi Dave,
I received the two spanner wrenches yesterday/Friday. They look great!
See you in a few days at Cabin Fever.
Thanks,
Dan

Are you ever going to make narrow gauge couplers?
