Applesauce, Please post your impression when you use them. Non/pro bike mech. here.

To Applesauce, There are Unior bike tools listed now on Ebay by a supplier in the Czech republic.

Red Snap-on tool cabinets like the ones to our left enjoyed a bit part in the latest Transformers' sci-fi extravaganza. But unlike most Hollywood product placements, they didn't cost the company a dime. The producers just wanted the movie's secret government repair facility to look realistic...

If you have any more of the Stahlwille 14 32mm wrenches, will you please tell me the thickness along the edge (the widest part of the beam). Thanks

Thanks for your replies.

I've been considering the Wera Zyclops, but then I saw this new ratchet from VIM. I wonder how well the thumbwheel lock works. Anyone seen one yet?

Slipjointed, Thanks. Agree that the Wright is super comfortable, but they are about 10% shorter, and I'd like the extra length of the SC. Lloyd

Williams currently sells a 7-24mm Supercombo combination wrench set in hi-polish, but I'd rather have a satin set, which they no longer produce. I'd prefer like new condition. I want the Supercombo wrenches because of their oval beams. Lloyd

Jay, It looks like they're the same company. Apparently, it's Viking-Norseman. http://www.norsemandrill.com/Contact_Us.html http://vikingdrill.com/Contact_Us.html

Facom; open end, not combo http://www.pro.facom.com/CatalogueGeneral/Catalogue/PAG-CAT-05.aspx

On Shoplet.com's website, they do not list SK's turbosockets, but they do list the shoulder pillow, as their item #833.

Armstrong's are marginally longer fwiw.

Proto combo wrenches are significantly longer than Wright's. Fwiw, Amazon frequently has good deals on Proto sets, if you don't want to buy used on Ebay.
