    Tools from the old world

    This question has propably been asked many times, but I'm still gonna go for it. I'm about to purchase some NWS pliers (at least long nose + linesman) but found myself wondering if I'd be better of with Cobras than the Quattrogrips. Quattros don't lock am I right? Will I be missing that...

    Taiwan tools question

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FACOM-TOOL-3-8-DRIVE-8MM-22MM-SOCKET-RATCHET-EXTENSION-ACCESSORY-KIT-/131309153629?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item1e92a2ad5d Is this too much of a complete set? I suppose you are located in Europe? Ratchet can be too short to be the only one in box though.

    Old cow barn becomes my workshop...

    Nice makeover! I'm bit surprised seeing your trolley jacks. I'm having hard time to stuff a similar one under my stock s80 and any of your cars looks high.

    Glanced a Hazet 9012m on auto parts store today while waiting. Incredibly small impact wrench, and impressive figures compared to size. Luckily there was no price showing so I can keep dreaming about it. :D

    Tools from the old world

    Victorinox makes great pocket tools, I like to carry huntsman with me. Only drawback is that those are so portable and small that they are too easy to lose.

    Knipex Cobra Pliers - MADE IN GERMANY

    In locking ones usually there is "self-locking" written on a handle, I think I've also seen cobras without that. Thought 18 years of use should wear that kind of prints out.:D

    Wera Metal Ratchet vrs SK Ratchet

    I was choosing between wera and facom (the same round head I suppose?) when buying 3/8 set. Ended up with facom because it has socket for every size and it was cheaper. Still liked more from ratchet design on wera.

    Good european stores for facom, nws, wera

    Must recommend this also, very fast service and affordable prices at least on wera, knipex etc. I'm quite sure that if you would contact some of the online stores listed here some of them would be willing to specially order the screwdriver for you.
