Detaching sewer hose fitting
As my hands become more impacted by arthritis i have a greater struggle with the sewer hose fitting. I note a wrench is sold by rhino but i saw one very bad review. My solution has been to use a screw...

I understand your problem with hand strength and suspect that many of us will encounter the same thing at some point.
The wrench you suggested is nothing sophisticated and simply a plastic spanner wrench. I found them at several places for $5.75 and up. For that kind of money I'd buy two. One to use and one to use as a pattern for a machinist to make me one out of aluminum if I was afraid of breaking the first one. If I was going to have one made I'd probably extend the handle a little depending on my space available when using it. Not because I think the extra leverage would be needed, just because it may be and it wouldn't add to the cost significantly.
The bad side of that thinking is you would probably have $100 invested in a wrench that you could replace 15-20 times for the same money in the plastic ones.
