In Metric. I know it should be 9/16 but I can't find mine. Is it a 14?
 
9/16. damnit man, is it fractional or metric? When in doubt just start trying till you find the tightest fit ese

You need to organize your stuff man, makes it so much easier. I used to help my cousin in his shop he’s say to get a wrench out of the wrench drawer. Inside that drawer looked like a bomb went of in there, I’d spend 5 minutes looking for a particular tool. I’m more accustomed to having mine in wrench racks/socket organizers etc by size and metric/fractional.
 
14mm is basically the equivalent to 9/16. Wrench tolerances can vary, so it's not a bad idea to have both to try and see what fits better whether or not the fastener is technically standard or metric.
 
I have adjustable wrenches of various size for this exact reason.

A drawer full of fractional and metric wrenches that looks like a bomb went off inside?

Fuck looking through that mess, grab one of the adjustables.

I keep all my sockets together.
