Hand Remer

Post by Ratsima »

I'm looking for a hand reamer something like this:

I found online, but only shipping from overseas for delivery in July. Home Pro here in Korat didn't know what it was.

I'm sure they must be available locally.

Any ideas?

Aside: I thought the same thing about a basin wrenches as well, but ended up ordering from China. No wonder the faucets are loose at almost every PTT station.

Thank you. I'd seen those, they seem quite expensive. But, in pinch I might go for that.

The similar one on Lazada from China is 70 baht plus 38 baht shipping:

The only useful part of that one will be the shipping!

No hand reamer at Mr DIY but they did have some very small rattail files with handles that I think will do the trick.

Thanks again for the suggestion.

Trouble is, once I get in to that place I could spend many hours (and lots of money). Fortunately, this time I got out for 109 baht and in less than 20 minutes.

Thank you. I think I'm set. The small rattail file worked fine.
