I just picked up a DeWalt DWMT45226H for $130.00. It is a used set, but from looking at it, I only found 1 socket and one ratchet that looked like it have ever been touched. No, It is not everything I wanted, but It is a nice upgrade to my go-box.

Or these fun ones. US-UK Fries -- Chips Chips -- Crisps Cookies -- Biscuits Biscuits -- Scones Jello -- Jelly (I Once told a guy from England that I was having a Peanut butter and Jelly Sandwich for lunch. His reaction was priceless.) Sidewalk -- Pavement Underwear -- Pants Pants -- Trousers

He-He, Ha-Ha, Ho-Ho It means 236.5ml About 30ml in an ounce and 8 ounces in a cup. This is a rough estimation, of course. I am pretty sure that is not going anywhere in the US. Cups, Pounds, Ounces, Teaspoon, Tablespoon are still used in everything here. SAE hardware is still everywhere, but...

My 3-Car garage has walkways now. I need to free up some space, so I can actually use it. Or sell and get a bigger house. Which will not happen. I am too old to start over on house payments. Ideally, I would love to just compress everything into a cart. I just don't see that happening. But...

I thought about 3d Printing a slug for the empty slots.

How can I delete one of my posts.

I am just being nitpicky about open slots in my socket drawer.

The local shop tells me that the stuff made in Taiwan art the better budget sockets, But from what I have been seeing the latest Craftsman in chinesium.
