    Oil Filter Socket Sets, which one?

    I see 3 piece sets up to 7 pieces, usually shallow sockets with a 3/8" drive. On my car, I should be able to get a 1/2" drive 27mm socket on there no problem, but I was wondering how important it is to get these specific "oil filter sockets" and if many cars need the extra low profile for...

    Grey Pneumatic swivel impact sockets...

    Does anybody know if "TOOLTOPIA" is an authorized dealer for Grey Pneumatic? I'm hoping so.

    Finally took my socket set to the next level by adding 1/2" drive after 20 years without 'em. I wanted to go "cheap" on these, 'cause they'll be used less, and large sockets are expensive. I got the 1/2" Roto H.F. Ratchet (along with the 3/8 and 1/4, and I love them) in green and a 24" breaker...

    What's in your bicycle riding carry along tool kit?

    You generally see replaceable derailleur hangers on aluminum frames, but good idea though.

    Whoa. That's what I need. A work of art. Perfect. I just googled for it. Is the Victorinox version the exact same thing and made by PB Swiss??

    What's in your bicycle riding carry along tool kit?

    Yes, but I've found that some tools cross over, like my ("bicycle-specific") folding hex keys - I carry them both on the bicycle and motorbike (since it's also metric). The smaller wrenches, even my bicylce pump if I'm riding the motorcycle far. I've used my park tool bicycle tire levers to...

    Another bit ratchet recommendation thread

    Wow. Thank you, superautobacs, that's a lot of valuable information I did not know. I had not even questioned the origin of the ratchets. I'll be checking out the Wiha.de site from now on. The ones that weren't stamped were actually all the metric (except for the smallest one), all the torx...

    What's in your bicycle riding carry along tool kit?

    What's in your bicycle/motorbike riding carry along tool kit? Trying to configure a good little tool kit to carry on the bike. I was considering a little set of bits with maybe a bit-ratchet and/or some kind of handle. I think the little bits might rattle loose from vibration or maybe easy to...
