    I need a list of my tools

    oh well, its always nice to have torx screwdrivers as a torx bit socket is not usually long enough for the interior screws. as far as the tool list goes, its good to have for insurance /replacement purposes, also have pictures of the tools

    thanks for the input the only time I used a spiral extractor, it broke... so I am more hesitant to buy that set than the others as far as the Proto set goes, how does it compare to the SR40K set? it looks of similar design, I can find it for around $120...
