Monte, great photos as ever :) I'm sure I have some of those Stanley screwdrivers under another branding, but I can't remember who! I have to point out my great appreciation to NWS. After I snapped the tip off my pliers pulling an r-clip out I bought another set, but thought I'd drop an email...

Really cool, great garage space too!

Thanks for the link dave26, I'll have a look! I have my current metric set for the very small and very large sizes, so a Stahlwille set covering the core sizes would be ideal

Function, that looks great! I wish mine was laid out so neatly inside!

Where's that from? :D £80 is more in the region of what I paid for my AF set. I've never seen a Metric set, or set made from individuals, that low.

Thank you. That is the place I bought my AF set from, but I haven't checked back there in ages. I think come pay day I'll have a matching metric set :D

That's a really good comparison photo. I have inch sizes in 14 series and absolutely love them. I have looked for a matching metric set but can only find 13. Those photos make me definitely want to hold out for a 14 set, even if I get them individually. I've not really found a situation...

I use a cat litter tray too. I only have a single garage, so while the the car is on there on stands, I have to refurb the subframes out on the drive. Wandering around the shops at the weekend, found big litter trays for a pound each, so grabbed too, one for tools, and one for parts as I strip...

I think I need some new needle nose pliers. Pulling a pin and suddenly it let go, and something flew past my head. Tip of my lovely NWS pliers! Snapped tip by bcjamesmini, on Flickr

Their pro stuff is rebranded Gearwrench level stuff for the most part. I have some of it I keep in a mobile box for on the road. It's not bad, well priced, and comes with a lifetime warranty. I was given a set of their screwdrivers for free when I bought some oil last week, marked made in...

That's real neat, I like that!

Love the bus, love the garage :D

That's awesome, I'd love to find a Whitworth set like that!

My main hammers are a 32oz ball pein and a No.2 Copper. I really don't use my deadblows much.

It's good to see people treating tools as, well, tools!

That's a nice garage for over here! Some good plans, looking forward to seeing this come together. At the moment I can only dream of getting out of this single garage!

I have a fair few sleepless nights as a side-effect of other things :( If I really can't sleep, sometimes I'll stick the laptop on, do something semi-productive. Being in the UK, this is a good site to go on, since when I should be asleep, you lot are awake!

Mine doesn't get too mucky, so I just use an AG or Megs detailing spray as per the cars.

Some of my Minis left the factory with Imperial, Metric and Whitworth on them. Throw in a few threads in Whitworth special form and it's great fun! The moggy I had used several systems pre metric.

18" Snap-on 24" Halfords Pro (that's a UK shop). I can get a lot more torque down on the longer bar, but it does flex a bit, so I think an SO 24" is on the cards!
