HFC install

in my experience, something this long will likely not apply rotational force perpendicular to the bolt axis, stripping the bolt head. in other words, I don't think it will work

in my experience, something this long will likely not apply rotational force perpendicular to the bolt axis, stripping the bolt head.

in other words, I don't think it will work because it's harder to keep a longer, angled wrench square with the bolt head. because of that, it will probably slip and strip the head.
