Looking for a quality whitworth combo wrench set. No asian imports please.

Interested in hearing opinions on ball end vs standard full section in regards to L Hex keys, or what I call Allen wrenches. It would seem that the market for the non-ball ends seems to be fading, but I would think that they would be preferred in the larger sizes where one exerts a bit of...

Anyone have a link to a PB Swiss dealers in the USA that discounts? I seem to find several on-line "distributors" who all seem to sell at the same prices.

Can anyone suggest where to look for a full sized middle or top box to fully cover my rolling Craftsman chest that measures 26 1/4" x 17 7/8"? I'd like to add some 3" drawers to the top, but most everything that I find is 16" or 12" deep. Also, what is the purpose of having the upper boxes...

I see many threads on hex key recommendations but don't see comments on Klein. I know that Klein is popular with electricians but maybe don't make it into automotive tool stores. I like that they are domestic to the USA. Has anyone had experience with their hex keys?

Are there any?

Anyone have one of these? http://www.cpomilwaukee.com/drills_and_hammer_drills/drills/12v_drills/2410-22.html?ref=shopping2410-22 Wondering if it would match my vintage 3/8" Makita 6211D that uses Ni-Cads.

Anyone catch a recent automotive magazine review of ratcheting wrenches? I heard of of but can't seem to find it.

Anyone have them? Are they sensitive to the wrench size ratings (largest) listed by the manufacturer or can I just buy the number of slots I need and assume that my largest wrench a few sizes over the rating will fit without hanging up on the drawer floor? I wasn't sure if the elevation of the...

So right now, two full shelves, 16"x 36", of my storage rack are full of spray cans of lubes, paints, waxes, oils, etc. There is no telling what is in the back, so......... What's everyones' storage solutions for these things? I was thinking maybe some bent sheet metal shelves, one can deep...

Do the tile type floors holdup to motorcycle centerstands and sidestands? For those who don't know, centerstands apply most of the weight to 2 small feet, and it gets there by rocking and prying the bike up on the stand as it rools into place.

I have a few Craftsmen ratcheting combination wrenches and they seem fine, but I need to supplement with metrics. What brands do you like for dependability and functionality?

Not owning any Snap-On wrenches, I seem to be noticing that their standard wrenches are generally longer than Crastfman and SK? Is that a good or bad thing? Please, no "I am a Chevy guy, so Fords ****!" opinions. LOL

Besides Craftsman, does anyone make sockets with sizable size labels? Perhaps stamped before chroming?

Just put in heavy duty Knape & Vogt (K & V) adjustable shelving on 2 walls of the workshop after getting tired of tripping over tools and parts while repairing the bikes in the winter. The brackets are rated for near 500 pounds each so they will never be in danger of overload and being able to...

Anyone try them? Looking for a long term maintenance free solution to rust in polished tools in the garage.

Looking at linesmen side cutters, dykes and needle nose pliars and noticed that Knipex has chromed versions. Seems a good idea for garage resident storage, vs the unfinished versions, but I'm wondering if the extra finish hampers gripping and cutting surface operation. Any opinions?
