Condescending maybe. Maybe you should go into your own bathroom and look in a mirror after reading once more your initial post to me.

Did you really think I as so stupid as to not know that Oxalic would not strip paint? I've been working on bikes for many years and turn a wrench for a living. I've never run into a bicycle brake that had the locking nut so thin as to not work with the current wrenches I have. I asked a simple question as to where I could find such a wrench and then immediatly stated that I fabricated my own wrench rather than mess around procuring one as I was moving on with the project.

If your reading comprehension is so throttled that you could not easily infer this from reading my post I really can't help you further here. These are just words on a page. Words mean things. I'm not going to put out an audio version where I read it aloud for you. Just be aware that When you say certain things in certain ways then perhaps some people might respond in a negative manner, and either get over it or think before you post such nonsense to people.
