    Chinese Made Craftsman Professional Wrenches

    Was at Sears in Colorado Springs today and bought the SAE Cman Pro set which is marked "made in USA" on the packaging and each wrench has USA on it. Same set up for the metric set. Did not see any China Professional wrenches. The tool salesman, who is frankly a complete idiot, said he doesn't...

    Snap-On KRL vs. Craftsman Pro Toolbox

    I forgot to mention that I checked out the CM Pro line before commiting to the Montezuma chest. Now in retrospect (since I hadn't seen the Montezuma box beforehand and made the call based on Nissan Crawler's review and other posts here - THANKS), it's no comparison. For roughly the same price...

    Snap-On KRL vs. Craftsman Pro Toolbox

    The resurrection of this thread is also interesting b/c one of the early posters, Nissan Crawler, like me, both have new boxes from strictlytoolboxes.com. I received a 72" Montezuma box from Shannon two weeks ago and can't imagine any box being of better quality, or better suited to my needs...

    Who is rating all of the threads 1 star?

    That's weird. I gave this thread 5 stars and the total number dropped from 3 1/2 to 3.

    HF Socket Organizers :(

    jeepnut, thx for the idea. I was actually looking at a label maker at the office with white background tape. I don't think clear will cover up the old number well enough. It does sound pretty **** but i'd like to make it look nice for the new box, plus my writing *****.

    HF Socket Organizers :(

    I also use the Hansen trays and like them. But I couldn't use them for the hex and torx drivers b/c the peg is too long and there's no through hole in those sockets.

    HF Socket Organizers :(

    In reply to the above posts, I also just put tiny labels over the numbers and wrote my own numbers. Still not my first choice as stated above. The socket sets did very conveniently come with their own black stickers, also missing the same numbers as for each of the three sizes of metrics. So...

    HF Socket Organizers :(

    My new Montezuma 72" chest recently arrived from Strictly tool boxes and I needed to reorganize (or perhaps organize) my socket drawer. I have a mixture of Hansens and some magnetic strip socket organzers, but needed some new ones for my hex and torx socket drivers and for some new 1/2"...

    Best snap on tool?

    Any long handled flank drive combo wrench. No tool IMHO is more beautiful or feels better in my hand.

    Tool chest organization

    Looked over the links. Most are about how to organize sockets and wrenches which I'm set with. This link about how to organize drawers way particularly helpful: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3616

    bmwpower's garage build

    A question about your cabinet layout. Having now been installed and using them for a while, do you have any thoughts about your peninsula cabinet, the 60" x 30" DW one b/w the two garage bays? I'm wondering with my layout if I would rather keep the cabinet wall flush all the way across the...
