Hi Bernhard

I know them, as BA box spanners.   I got my set from Chronos Engineering here in the UK.

or if that URL doesn't work direct then use

http://www.chronos.ltd.uk

and search for BA box

HTH

Cheers

On Chris "Tankerman"'s recommendation, I bought a five piece BA nutspinner set from www.eileensemporium.com for £26.01 (inc. carriage) and am very pleased with them. They range from 8 to 16 BA. I can't see them currently on their website (called "SPINBASET" - bought 8th October). Might be worth a phone call, if you are interested.

Regards,
