Sig,
Cool boxes. I have the same set, but with a middle box, and one side box. The top, bottom, and side were bought used. The wife bought the middle new for my B-day. My dealer showed up on tool day and took it off the truck. Abuddy of mine helped me paint them to all match. We put flames on the sides of the top and metal tears on the side of the side box. Love that style box.
I had my wife borrow my SO carbon scraper set and use them to pry baseboards off the wall. Came home and she had hammered the shanks through the handles. She didn't understand either. To her they were just tools. That is until I showed the invoice to replace them with new tools and replace the handles on the other set. I locked my box after that.

Hey Sig, sorry about your dog,,,,,,,and your wrench also. Nice looking garage! Don't worry about not having what others have. We all just love tools. You have to start somewhere and if desire to build a bigger better set over time, do it. Very few if any buy everything at once.
If bil can't afford to replace with SO, can you get some medical treatment sometime to compensate? Nothing wrong with a little bartering.
Welcome, the water is warm,,,,,,,but watch out for the strong currents,,,you may get swept away!!!!!!!!!!

Welcome, Sig.
If your wife doesn't understand, then ask her how she would feel if you went poking around in the doctor's wife's "toolbox".

He probably doesn't realize that Snap On wrenches are better and more expensive. Probably has heard of Craftsman and thinks they are the best. If it were me, I'd just be honest and tell him I prefer Snap On to Craftsman and not invent some big internal family drama.

i vote for MAKING him replace SO for SO. you let your BIL get away with it once and hell try to get away with it again.
