All is well providing the tool is made so that it's flanks like up as they
should with bolt head.  I've put a cheap wrencho on a bolt before and it's
had so much play, I keep checking to make srue I didn't grab a SAE by
mistake when I wanted metric.  oh yeah, and it was the right size. hee hee.
That's a wrench you put aside for when you're working on one of those cars
with both standards, and you can't figure out what the bolt is.  With a
wrench like that, and a little penetrating oil, atleast a couple of flanks
are bound to grab somewhere on the bolt. hee hee.
