    Is Harbor Freight getting too big for its britches?

    HF is in business, not a charity. What they have been doing is smart for them, ***** for some. But I appreciate that high end tools and welder offerings. But shul they have the base line for those who want the cheapest.

    Best ratcheting wrenches (midrange in price?)

    Offset reversible with anti slip grip on the open end are pretty much the best in most circumstances. The flex heads are secondary imho.

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Yes I was being sarcastic about my harbor freight comment. I like the company. I just thought it would be neat/ funny to rename the boxes for cosmetic purposes. It's like owning a fake rolex, to each his own.

    Let's see your toolbox.

    I have two separate socket trays. One is a lock a socket, the other is a Craftsman tray. Both work fantastic. Each have their own benefit, thelock a socket tray is much better quality and heavier but the Craftsman tray is more economical and slightly more compact and efficient
