Which emperial size spanners fit on regular dies?
The US forums mention 7/16, 1/2, and 1⅛ or 1³/16.
I know that one can use standard metric sizes, but I have a chance to buy the right goodies.

They differ. Lee use one set of nut sizes, but Hornady may or may not use the same.

For those in the Cape, go to Milnerton flea market on a Sunday morning. There are two stalls there that usually have most of whatever spanners you want.

The rounders work well, but this round it is simply my sense of correctness kicking in. It is far easier and more thorough to have the correct tool for the job at hand.
Adjusting and readjusting something which never fits properly - I think that is how adultery must feel 😉

Was a new one for me too ;-). I think it will need to be for the spanner. The bobbejaan would be more of a Cullinan Nut Crusher.

I have known that thing as a Free State Micrometer...
Also know as the spanner that can be adjusted to make any size bolt or nut round.
