I wear Stihl wrap chaps. There's a handy zippered pocket on the left thigh just right for a scrench. It's nice not having to walk back to the truck to tighten my chain a bit.
That's a great idea.
I'd rather be water boarded than view a Wranglerstar video....
I always carried it in muh rear jeans pocket. Don't want anything to hang up on brush and slash.
An interesting factoid--the socket on a regular bar wrench, will tighten some kind of bolt on an Eagle carriage, much to the dismay of the rigging crew who were hoping to go fishing.

That’s where we would usually find missing screnches when cleaning up shared, group equipment.

I like that idea ( above),,,,, fact is I quit carrying it.. I use a milk crate with a cut off gallon jug in nat. fuel, lube oil and grease gun n stuff . few extra steps to get it, but I don't lose it anymore.. A piece of line on the crate makes a nice handle,, over the shoulder even.. I'm sure you feel better with my two cents...
There have been a number of threads about how many, and which tools to carry while cutting. Some guys walk long distances into the woods. Some are never far from their truck (tractor, skidder, etc.).
I like it when I can set up a little area (tree, log, tarp, etc.) where I can leave my fuel, larger tools, water, coat, etc.; maybe set up a sharpening spot. A milk crate works great for that.

So I am going to try this when it warms up. I took a Poulan Scrench, which does not have a spark plug sized wrench only a bar nut wrench and drilled two holes through the sides of it large enough to receive the carabiner.
Simply click that scratch to the carabiner by passing the carabiner through the two holes. In one side out the other.

When you need one for all the dang different saws.
Not even all of them in pic either.

Just over there somewhere.

Grabbed a few from the ‘xtra scrench box’: saving up to buy the saws that go with them.
I pick up any I see at garage sales: usually in the ‘unknown junk box’. I have some flat ones attached to their respective saws.

Nothing wrong with collecting…until one day your kid calls you a hoarder….and you realize it’s because you got $hit all over the place.
I’m downsizing my number of saws and sending misc screnches with them on their way out. I’d like to keep one Scrench in the case of each saw I keep, one on my person clipped to my chaps when I cut (subject of this post), one in my tool bucket with bag of spare parts that accompanies my gas can and maybe one on my bench.
So that’s # of saws owned + 3 max.
What are the odds I accomplish that goal?

I haven't been stabbed in about 10 years since I switched to
L wrenches
I carry a small tuning screwdriver in my shirt pocket for the chain adjuster.
I run Husqvarna so I don't know if the Stihl sized l wrenches would be practical.

Here's just one source
https://www.ebay.com/itm/1853694485...Su9dwNAN5kZnjiWQBcsZTomg2Q328tmxoCiaoQAvD_BwE I first found them in the 80s they were made in Britain and came with a british dirt bike I worked on
No idea where they were introduced.
