I've just watched it it works good but I've never needed one, In that situation i use a spanner and a pair of stillies and if that wont get um, " sorry love you need new taps anyway" there's no profit in changing tap washers, I do it for mates and family but mostly I've not got time for changing washers,  |

Its a bit of a ball to set up but it does crack open stubborn valves.

yea to be honest its a gismo, you'd have to change a lot of tap washers to get that back, but on the plus side whenever your struggling with something and you've got an extra tool that will help, it will get you out of the shit, A plumber never has enough tools, I'm always buying stuff that i think will come in handy, Its what we do, A plumber always gets the job done some way or another, and that's why, we have the tools, |

That kit looks good pb. I used to be on aids and adaptations at work and have to swap taps over to lever taps some times could be a right pain in the ass to get to. That kit would have been ideal mate...
