I carry a PocketWrench every day. I’ve found it to be very useful as a pry bar, screwdriver, and wrench. I deal with mainly small stove bolts. Thought it was a gimmick at first but time has showed It’s value.
It’s like a candy store for adult boys. HJE has been my go to store for tools for the last 40 plus years. Be prepared to spend some cash.

It’s not the union but the corporate bigwigs that want large profit with low almost nothing labor cost.
If everyone is paid a low wage then no one can afford to buy products.
After all our whole economy is based on buying more stuff.
Without unions the middle class will disappear.
Organized my wrench drawers.
Trying to figure out how long I’ve owned some of these wrenches. Like these metric Snap On, I think they was purchased in the early 1960s. Trying to figure out how to organize these bette.
It’s a shame Indestro is no longer in business. I always liked their tools. If I remember correctly you could buy them at Kmart in the 60s also at my local mom and pop hardware store. Sadly they are gone as well. Times have changed
The Chinese are investing heavily in Africa. They see it as a way around higher Chinese labor cost.
The new manufacturing hubs will be Vietnam and some of Africa.
