    My wife and I will be moving into our first house with an attached 2 car garage in a few months! I'm pretty excited and have set aside a few thousand to put it together(including some tools I haven't been able to buy being an apartment dweller). I'll be using the garage for general use and...

    20V Tool Platform for a DIYer

    1/2 Socket Set Recommendations: Koken, GearWrench, Tekton, or something else

    I'm a home gamer, fixing mostly Japanese cars in my immediate household. I've had the privilege of working with someone else's tools in someone else's garage, so my own collection is quite lacking. Mostly used Craftsman USA pieces, with other nicer pieces here and there.
