    1/4" square drive to 1/4" hex(Apex) adapter recommendations

    Oh, my bad. I misunderstood the kind of the adapter you were looking for. Looks like I have Zephyr and a Wiha in my bit socket collection. The zephyr has a retaining ring and the Wiha uses a set screw.

    Show off your old exposed thread bench vises

    Just picked up these two cuties today. Both made in USA for under $50 total. They’ll be more than adequate for my home shop needs, just need that third hand sometimes. Exactly what I was looking for.

    Nut Drivers (new or old) show them here

    Picked up this set of Xcelite nut drivers today. I’ve been hunting for the smaller sizes. Someone munched on the 5/16” too hard, and it doesn’t have a handle any more. But I have a spare for that. Also picked up this Brookstone branded set made by Moody

    Did you look thru the Apex, Zephyr and Vega catalogues ? If you can’t find one there it probably doesn’t exist.
