Is any of the Wright stuff going to be on sale, or just the shirt? I'm eying a 3/4" drive impact set.

I give this example because I own exactly one long hex bit socket from Snap-On that I purchased on eBay because the 4mm Harbor Freight one was too flexible, a set of Husky ball end long, and a set of regular hex from Harbor Freight. They are definitely all made from different steels with...

My tool purchases this week include the smallest Wilde pry bar to match the ATD branded set of 5 I already had, 1/4" and 3/8" Koken hex bit holders, and a Snap-On FCF72 3/8" in a 1/4" flex head body. Interesting that I can attach a photo here, but it repeatedly generates an error when I try to...

It wouldn't let me post in any forum until I created this thread here yesterday. The image wouldn't go into the first post, but I was able to reply with the image. After posting that image, I was able to make some comments on other threads, where I hadn't been able to previously. Weird.
