    As small as possible really, could probably do it with 4.5"
    Its to remove the heads off a couple of security screws on my old ignition barrel.

    I've got a 110v 4-1/2" and transformer. If your going to grind them off you would have better control with a dremmel. Oh I'm in Northwich by the way.

    If you come over wigan I can let you have a black and decker version with a few bits an pieces. If you want it it's good and usable but surplus to my requirements got a couple of dreamless and a lot of air powered stuff so don't need it
