Another idea is the FACOM Dynapact wrench.  This is like a T-bar, but
has a spring-loaded centre section.  You rotate the handle about 60
degrees, winding up a spring, and then the thing lets go and delivers
an impact similar to an air tool.  Nice, because it's portable.

There are two models - NK.300 (1000 Nm) and NM.300 (2000 Nm).
