    Your good tools, your less good tools, what do you reach for?

    Best tools at work. I don't really keep tools at home, because I have a couple hundred pounds of tools in my truck box and in the backseat that are always with me. Those are a mix of all the older 'junk' I've replaced over the years with fancy Snap On stuff, mostly Craftsman, Carlyle and some...

    Help with Sockets

    I'll second Sunex. I've got the complete 3/8s set SAE and metric, longs and shorts. Affordable, and not a single problem in ~5 years. I've even adapted them onto my MG725 1/2" and beat the snot out of them. No problems.

    borrowing tools in the shop

    Haha, love those guys.. I picked up a new set of Instinct screwdrivers a few months ago, and the first day, not an hour after Mr. SnapOn drove away, I caught one of our tire guys hitting one of my new screwdrivers with a hammer, to punch a chrysler lug out of a flip socket. Jeez

    borrowing tools in the shop

    Exactly. For some reason, one of our apprentices keeps losing one of the other guy's tools. He stays away from my box. Caught a new tire guy, 18, the other day just walk up and start opening drawers. Scared the **** outta him haha. Me, and my other mechanic are the only two 'mechanics' at the...
