I like the Sunex set. I've had it for 30yrs or more...

I like all my Starrett tools. Another option is the Koken tools. You'll need two sizes to handle most taps used, so it will be $100+, but what's nice about these is you can use your own T-handle and whatever length extension you want. These work great. You'll probably need two Starrett tools...

I have both the Noco5 and Noco10. They both work great and can be hooked to a completely dead battery, but you do have to hold a button for 5 seconds to start the charge on a really dead battery which is no problem, but you have to remember to do it. I like the 10 for the fact it has the power...

Topdon Ultradiag Moto motorcycle scanner. They worked hard on this tool. Comes with tons of adapter cables.

I have a lot of Asahi. They are top quality as most Japanese tools are. Some of the ratchets are Taiwan made, but all or most of the other tools are Japan made. For the price they are excellent.

It's simple. The entire Noco charger is simple to use. I have all four, the 1-2-5-10 and they all work fabulous and easy. The great thing the 10 has is the power supply mode.

The Noco10 works fine. It's not difficult to enter force mode, just hold the mode button for 5 seconds.

The surface drive Kokens I have always seem to weld themselves to a tight bolt when using them. I like the sockets, but on a relatively tight nut with a 27mm head, the Koken always does this, where I can use a regular socket, an old Craftsman, new Tekton or koken regular sockets and the sockets...

I needed something that would work on a new 1997 Ford Powerstroke diesel. Can't remember who made the scanner, but it was used with one of the Palm hand held little computer things that were popular at the time. It worked OK mostly, but some errors in readings made it useless as you couldn't...

Harbor Freight 1000A carbon pile load tester. This thing works great. Highly recommended, however first one I got was defective. Second one is a good one. $199

Pinball machines, slot machines, anything that uses sae bolts will use sae tools of course. #10, 1/4, 5/16, 3/8, 1/2 bolts are common with a hex drive head. I'll never use a hex key though. Those things are dumbest tool ever, unless used on tiny screw sizes. For anything else ditch the keys and...

Any solder works good on copper. It's probably the easiest metal to solder to.

I got the cheap Harbor Freight gun about 13yrs back and can say for the $10 or whatever it was, one of my best purchases ever. Cord doesn't bother me. I made my own stand for it so it can idle happily when hot.

Tape has always leaked for me, 100% failure. Most equipment I bought where they used tape, such as air compressors. Motorcycle lift, pressure washers, you can all but bet on every fitting they used tape on will leak. I will never use it again. For me if I don't care if I need to ever disassemble...

I have a small Hotsy electric powered hot water pressure washer I bought 25yrs ago. Hot water works much better than cold. Unfortunately prices have risen beyond reasonable levels for a personal use machine. When I got mine the price was decent enough to justify...

I like the Grey Pnuematic set. I have gobs of Grey sets of all sizes and shapes and they have worked fabulous for me. I don't care $0.02 about warranty and never break tools. On 1/4" of course you must use some common sense. https://www.gpsocket.com/products/product.phtml/9298HC/

I've bought and used about 15 of those 1/4" xcelite drivers over the years. They had one that was about 2ft long. TV sets used 1/4" screws that we worked on. The long ones were great for getting way in where you needed to get. The metal is soft, the magnet eventually gets pressed in too far to...

Koken USA is great. You'll get the tools soon. No worries.

I have the surface drive Kokens, and also a master set of 1/4" surface drive Grey Pnuematic impacts. I like them. They fit real loose, so that turns away a lot of guys before they even give them a try. Give them a chance. I'll bet you'll like them.
