    Thumb/Palm/Finger ratchets?

    Does anyone use these? For what? What brand/kind/size? I think SK makes one. I've found some Titan ones on ebay. They look like the Gearwrench ones. Thoughts?

    3/8 Gearwrench Flex Stubby came in...84 tooth...

    Nice little surprise. My Gearwrench Flex Stubby came in from Amazon today, and marked on the back near the selector switch it says "84 Tooth". I guess they're rolling them out. Pics to follow. I haven't had a chance to compare it to my 60 tooth stubby to see if there is a difference.

    LED strip light bars.....

    I've narrowed down my under cabinet lighting in the garage to using LED Strip/Bar lights. I need 2 of them 24-30 inches long. What brands or vendors should I be looking at? All the big box stores are $80 or higher for a bar/strip that long. Any online vendors or brands you could suggest for a...

I'm talking...

    Electrical outlet strip behind work bench...

    Any thoughts/ideas? I was thinking of going this route: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00006B81J/?tag=atomicindus08-20 It's got 24 outlets, and I think Tripp Lite is a pretty decent company. Thoughts? EDIT - It's 72 inches long, so that's almost total coverage for my 8 foot work bench.

    3/8 stubby flex ratchet?

    So far I'm thinking of going with the Gearwrench Flex Stubby in 3/8's flavor to match the rest of my ratchets. I like that it's 60 tooth, smooth, and not crazy priced. What other options are there? Who else runs a flex stubby?

    So all I'm lacking is 1/2 drive deep sockets...just go impact?

    Is there any point in getting non-impact 1/2 drive sockets? My entire set of sockets is Craftsman's Easy-To-Read Laser sockets. All I'm lacking are 1/2 drive deep sockets. I'm thinking I should just go impact. I've heard that some brands of impacts are thicker than their non-impact...
