    I'm a plumber and therefore end up using hex keys quite often. Normally for small set screws in fixture handles.

    Thoughts on this folding workbench?

    For $85 after rebates, do you guys think this thing would be worth having? I searched and can't find who actually makes it. Kind of looks like Seville but I don't think so. https://www.menards.com/main/p-1482132103094.htm?

    What do you use pry bars for?

    It seems like everybody here has pry bars and I'm sure they come in handy but just how often do you use them and for what jobs exactly? I am just a diyer changing oil, brakes, rotating tires and the like. I'm sure I could have used a pry bar once or twice over the years but I don't think there...
