... these freakin' crossforce Craftsman wrenches?!

I like my wrenches in nice, neat organizers. For some reason that I cannot now recall, I picked up a set of those Craftsman crossforce wrenches. Maybe I was just short on flaking chrome in my box that month, I don't know. :headscrat

Regardless, they don't seem to fit anywhere due to their design.

Other than a pegboard or just throwing them in a tray, does anyone have a solution for organizing these crazy things?

I let the people over at Sears store them for me ... they can store them there as long as they want. :lol:

What if you went with one of the ernst two peice wrench rails but get one side reverse and one side regular.

Merk, I do believe you are correct. I had come to the same conclusion.

I think you will be that conflicted about using them to!!

Maybe try placing a magnetic strip under the box ends that way the open ends will sit perpendicular?

This is not a bad idea. I think putting the strips under the open end would be better, though, since that is the side with the size markings and I would be better able to read them in the drawer.

However, I think I'm just going to warranty the set due to flaking chrome and then sell the new set while still in the packaging.

Thanks for the input.

Dunno, I just put them in my red wrench holders. They fit the Craftsman and the Ernst ones. They just look a little odd, square at one end, tipped at the other.

Take it easy, guys. He is asking for storage advise, not a review of his wrenches. The Crossforce thing has been discussed to death on this board, with strong feelings on both sides.
