Not garden related but I know someone will know what this part is for. Found in a cheap socket set we use for light duty around the house. There's nothing like it in our heavier Craftsman set. What is it and what is it used for?
Life is short, Break the rules, Forgive quickly, Kiss slowly, Love Truly, Laugh
uncontrollably, And never regret anything that made you Smile.
I think it is called something like a speed adapter ring. You put it on the ratchet under the socket and turn it with your thumb to speed up tightening or removing a bolt once it is loose enough.
