I buy mainly Gedore and Stahlwille.. but i buy second hand only and i am based in RSA.. so my choices are either China or German.. we do have Snap On stockists but.. big BUT.. the prices are hefty my pal.. I like Gedore.. bit that is just my choice.. not one that i force others to follow..

I would go for black even if the red one was cheaper.. more drawers? Could only mean more tools..

When you guys speak ofa pass through ratchet, do you mean ratchets like the Gedore 1993Z?

Thanks guys.. for a moment i was a bit nervous there.. but none of my tools are stamped INDIA, so i am at ease now..

Well, as you all know, i am replacing my Stahlwille tools, which got taken from me with second hand Gedore tools.. i was entirely certain that this was a clever move on my side until i was made aware of the fact that India had a Gedore plant too.. my first thought upon learning that was, ''OH...

Can anyone give a ''you **** award'', or is that one persons duty only?

I had a Leatherman tool.. real old school.. was always on my belt until i managed to break the blade.. my brother (who happens to be a multi tool fanatic) had given it to me some years ago as a gift.. i often used to spray it with some windolene, give it a good wipe, one ''tool'' at a time and...

I am not greedy.. i just like having allot! Please sir, may i have some more?

Maybe it has something to do with overcrowded workshops and garages.. a red box is easier to spot than a ''beige'' box?

I have 3 x Gedore 1993Z ratchets which are 1/2''.. then a Gedore 1993 U 2 in 1/2''.. also a Gedore 1993 U 10 T also 1/2''.. and a no name brand 1/4''.. thats 6 which are all purchased 2nd hand.. i am loosing myself to an addiction of all things ''ratchetty''!.. i said enough is enough but then...

Does anyone here know what ''Copper Slip'' is? I am not sure who thr manufacturer is anymore, but that is what i use.. but i must admit, i haven't checked on it for a few months now.. thats what i will do this coming Sunday then..

I did not even know that something like that exists.. i must look for it and buy one.. if not, i must source one and make it mine..

May i ask what a "gearles ratchet''?

My eldest son is 5 & my youngest is 1.. my daughter is 2.5 years old and they have a ****** ball of a time when i open my toolbox.. they each have certain tools which i see they tend to look for and when i am done working i allow them to rummage through the box at will.. my reason is because of...

If you steer a kid in a direction then they tend to follow.. not force but steer and guide.. buying a child a set of tools will make him realise that using his hands to fix things is better than to use his hands for destructive purposes.. Buying him second hand tools will also teach him to spot...

If its a,Snap On set then i doubt i will be able to afford it.. but how much would it go for if it was Toptul?

You guys are seriously causing me to miss my old tools.. i had boxes of Stahlwille tools and i have no way of replacing them now.. old nad newer tools but mainly Stahlwille.. is there a crying emoticon here somewhere?

Dude! No way! I have that same Gedore ratchet.. i am afraid to take it to Gedore to have it serviced because i think they might swap me out for a later model.. i like my old old U more tha\the later model..

I wouldnt even think twice if i was close there.. it woulda bee mine already..

Blast em.. see what happens afterwards.. if you dont wanna use them cos they're pretty then put em in a cabinet and get another set to use..
