15mm crank wrench
I'm trying to attach my cranks to my BB and I need a crank wrench. It's a 15mm nut.
Does most better quality, thin walled socket wrenches in hardware stores (like home depot) work? I've read that lower quality ones are made with thicker walls and might not fit. What do you guys use that works?

Good, thin-wall sockets will work and be stronger than low-cost thick wall sockets so buy a decent one. Craftsman (Sears) is one source.
