i made one of those years ago, but instead of wasteding a socket, i had a peice of steel that i machined 2 lines out of and put a square hole in the end...

i fail at the HMT

Good idea. At least you put a SAE socket to good use!

I'd have used a regular bolt head, but then again I don't have spare tools to throw to the cause. I think I'm going to do this, since my big 3ton jack gets heavy after doing lots of exhaust work, upsidedown.

Excellent idea.
