- An adjustable spanner or adjustable wrench is a spanner (wrench) with a "jaw" of adjustable width, allowing it to be used with different sizes of fastener head (nut, bolt, etc.). Compare to an ordinary spanner, which is of fixed size, and requires a different spanner for each fastener size.

Stone Knives, Bear Skins, Tricorder Damage
I believe this to be a close up of the tricorder used by Spock to review history and the changes that have occurred since McCoy's time travel from the TOS episode City on the Edge of Forever. I frankly am not sure whether the damaged appearance here was a poor prop or meant to show the effects of the use of 1930 tools. Clearly one problem is the lack of a good crescent wrench or socket set...this kind of looks like what happens when I try to tighten a nut.
