McMaster is the easiest solution because some of those are hard to find.

Just joined the bandwagon. Now I need to chase the missing sockets, which are quite a lot actually.
I even have some sockets which do not fit on the tray. Anyone else having this 'problem'?

 

[Chadwilliam1]

my sockets larger than 27mm I just stand up in the drawer, they wont fall over.

if you are saying the sockets is too wide to fit on the pegs with the other sockets. then no I never had that problem. in that case that must be a very thick wall socket.

I was just going to ask where you are picking up all the odd sizes you still needed. My problem is I like all my sets to match in brand as well, I think I should just NEVER buy socket organizers so I can avoid this problem, otherwise I will be in the same position as you.

That's my issue. One brand all the same. It's a real pain in the ***....lol

No its just that I got more socket sizes than there are pegs for.

I get it, but with their purchasing power I am sure that they get them from Hansen at a steep discount in the first place.

I don't have a dog in the race, though.
