    A Light Duty Deep Socket

    I needed a deep socket but had none. Rather than run out to the store for something I’d probably never use again, I slapped one together from scrap and available regular sockets.

    Instead of the hose clamp, one could use a shaft collar with the screw close to the slit. It should hold almost as well without the protruding screw. They are admittedly less common and have a narrower range than hose clamps, though.
