Those Tekton boxes look nice. I was originally thinking I would go with a 36" box that is all drawers. Now I am wondering if I would like a cart with a smaller amount of drawers. On the Vidmar site there is a Lista cart that looks like it would hold all of the tools I would need, but I can't...

Thank you for suggestion and link, Ill check it out.

That's your back door!? It is beautiful and will make for a great inspiration for your kitchen. The adjustable shelves with the door mounted spice rack would be perfect for the kitchen I am bidding on. Thank you for sharing it. Those shelf stays are much better than your typical 32mm littering...

Thank you for the wrench suggestions, I will check them out. Can you think of an instants where you would prefer to use a combination wrench over a ratcheting wrench? I think I would either combo or ratcheting right now and wait for a second set if I needed.

When you say "sets from a single maker" do you mean you prefer to buy individual wrenches over wrench sets, or you don't buy a complete set of tools? My assumption on buying a set of wrenches is that it would be less expensive over buying them individually. It does make sense that if I buy a...

I will start searching around here to see what people have to say about tool storage. I love DeVol's work! The "moody" kitchen style is right up my alley. I actually have a bid out right now were the client requested I use DeVol as my inspiration. You are lucky that you got to go to their...

Do you know if the Williams wrenches have "teeth"? it looks like some of their wrenches do, but I am not sure.

Now you have me searching for Williams wrenches. Do you have a site you use to order Williams wrenches?

It sounds like you are already doing what I am aspiring to do, its great to have your input. I have been thinking of getting a Lista box for the shaper and one for mechanics tools and other miscellaneous items. Like everything else I have been asking about I have little knowledge of tool...

Your enthusiasm has me excited! I will continue to look at the Williams catalogue and consider your suggestion. How do Kennedy cabinets compare to Lista? I was planning on getting a Lista cabinet for my shaper tooling so was going to get an extra one for my mechanics tools and other...

Thank you for the reply. I will continue looking for a set of wrenches. Is there a set you recommend?

I like that you can get KoKen in foam sets. I am hoping to be able to store most of these tools in foam some how. For whatever reason I am drawn to ratchets with bare steel handles. That's probably not the best way to choose a tool.

I am still on the fence with the Nepros. As many on here have mentioned they are quite overkill for a woodworker. I may switch it out for the Williams if I get cold feet. Or maybe look at another brand that lands between the two in pricing. I put the Halder dead blow on my list because I...

I think you could say I am fishing for ideas. So far, through this thread I have learned a lot more about what is available in this category of tools than I could have imaged. This new knowledge has helped refine my list quite a bit. The woodworking shop I am putting together is for a former...

That is one thing I noticed about these pincers. Can you recommend a set with a single bevel?

Here is my revised list based on what I have learned here: Wera Tools 12pc Kraftform Big Pack 300 Lasertip Screwdriver Set WERA 05117682001 368 # 1 X 80 MM S/DRIVER FOR SQUARE SOCKET HEAD WERA 05117684001 368 # 2 X 100 MM S/DRIVER FOR SQUARE SOCKET HEAD Wright Tool 9UPSP4 Mini Pick Hook Set 4...

Thank you for your thorough response. I tried to keep my thread question restricted to wrenches, ratchets and pliers. With some of the helpful responses I have had here I may have to post a new question on calibration equipment. I was looking at Nogas and starrett tools, but am open to other...

This set on Tooltopia does look intriguing. Thank you for the suggestion. I have only been considering combination spanners.

Although I have appreciated all of your suggestions, I think I am going to have to stick with Wera for my screw drivers. They have sentimental value since my mentor has a set. However there are two areas in the new shop where I can see having a set, so I will not rule out the Vessel brand quite yet.

I like that the Wera goofy style makes you smile, it does the same for me. I am leaning toward the Wright wrenches until someone schools me otherwise.
