    Working on cars- do you need two sets of the same sockets?

    I have extras that I keep in the car just in case. Not all of my cars have been reliable plus sometimes I have been able to help others on the side of the road. Make yourself a traveling kit & keep it in your car.

    Brazing question

    I don't understand; brazing is effectively gluing pieces together whereas welding is making 1 part from 2 or more. Fusion welding is much stronger. The benefit of brazing is the lower temperature. You only need to heat the parts but you don't need them to sweat/melt.

    Which is the Stronger Breaker Bar Design?

    The cross sectional area is smaller on the right hand bar. I believe that would be the fuse so imho the bar on the left is stronger, more meat in the yoke area.
