Toptul sockets?
They call it a wedge but there's no taper, and yeah, it feels like Delrin to me.

That's a freaky swivel-headed Wera, too!

In the bag yes, not from Harry's. Getting ready to service my wifes 8hp70 Thursday. Never have touched it before. I added icon extensions and a bunch of their tools recently (icon) with the discounts a few weeks ago.

Great picks on the contest winners and great choice carrying Toyo toolboxes now too! I got one from a hardware store in San Francisco Japantown that stocks them. Really nice for putting together a small but well organized purpose specific tool kit.

Shoot! I was hoping to win the box art but honorable mention is still awesome!
Toyo toolboxes are really simple but really nice. We get them with every new Mazak mill we purchase for the shop — at least the ones that are manufactured in Japan, not the ones made in Kentucky. We have some in the shop there are twenty years old or more and they still look brand new. They can get really heavy real quick which is about the only real negative I have of them.

I'd say they would be used to affix the handles when used w/Jorgenson clamps.
That would make sense.
D'oh!
Finally got my order yesterday!
One question: the Jorgenson file handles came with pins with a domed head (rivets?). Anybody know what they're for?
Ah, so that's what my loose rivet was for!

Small order arrived this week. Got it inside just before the rain hit. Stellar job with the box art in memory of our beloved chow we lost 2 years ago. My wife got teary eyed when see saw “coco” written with pink flowers (Her color). I should have made a larger order! Lol.

Well alright, UPS bumped my order forward a day and my ship done come in! Little Monohue is enamored of all manner of space shuttles and satellites and so on, so this was for him. She's a beauty!
Took me a minute to go through it all, but here it is all spread out across the surplus jacket. This is going to be just right for separating me from the dirty tasks I don't want to expose my goin' to town jacket to. Looks and feels double tough, unlike its new owner.
Granted, this looks like a pretty random assortment. It is. I tend to put off any purchase I can live without until the need gets way past due, and that's what this is intended to rectify. No ragrets.
The only errors were in my favor. I got two of the Zircon metal-circuit detectors rather than the one I paid for, a couple of extra 6" rules, and a koozie I didn't even order. Quality control on this unit is top notch, by the way. I've conducted a brief but comprehensive analysis on suitability for purpose, and this thing passes with flying colors.
10/10, will Epstein's again.

Late in posting but here’s what I got this year. Epstein’s paying for shipping but getting box art > free shipping any day for me.
Especially excited to try the Wera Lasertip screwdrivers. I’ve heard good things about them and I’m curious to see how they compare to Vessel Jawsfit for dealing with stuck fasteners.

My order come in last week, forgot to post it.
Got my order Thursday. This was my second Epstein’s day order. Best Epstein’s day yet. And first time successfully getting box art. Wasn’t sure what kind of artistic interpretation I was going to get for an Alabama yellowhammer. I think it’s pretty good.

Those are 1/4” metric and SAE shallows by Wright.
I've moved this to the General Tool section as I believe more that know and understand HJE will see it.
For what HJE does for this community, I believe the most respectful thing I can do is make it a Sticky.

I have spoken to Steve many times over the years and had the honor to meet Jori last year. Father and son are both great people who know their tools!
My thoughts are with their family during this time!
