You people have corrupted me. I can remember a time when the the only ratchets I owned were a 3 piece craftsman, course-tooth ratchet set that usually comes with most of their tool sets. Here is what my ratchet drawer looks like now:

Don't blame us for screwing up your life!!! We are in the same boat as you are; your among a whole group of tool addicts here! LOL!! Nice set of tools there! We warned you about the signs of being a tool addict; didn't you pay heed to our warning? Honestly, compared to some of the other collections of ratchets; I think you are doing ok, you are no where near as obsessive/compulsive as some others on this board!

I must say that I find it disturbing to see Snap-on ratchets in the same drawer as the Pittsburgh's. I should probably go medicate myself now. :eyecrazy:

Good grief! Have you not learned anything on this board?

You need more boxes silly! Then you can start to get a real collection going. ;)

That drawers not full yet, when you have ratchets stacked on ratchets and your extensions are piled like cordword then you might be able to say something about full.

You don't need an intervention, you need a pat on the back. That's a hell of a nice collection you got going there, this is what we're all about! :)

*pats back*


Like i've said a few times, i got 40-something ratchets and no plan to stop anytime soon! :lol:

HA!!! You lightweights!! Once you surpass 200 ratchets (spanning around 75+ different brandings), give me a holler - THEN we can talk obsession and the need for some professional help! :spit::bounce:

The scary thing is, I don't doubt there's at least a few folks out there with well more than I have - they're just in hiding (or locked away from the general public...). :eyecrazy:

Finding GJ really didn't help with the therapy - gonna have to go electro-shock now :shocking::shocking::shocking:....

Ahhhhh.... I'm feeling MUCH better now.....

Nice start. The best thing about our collections is that we can actually acomplish somthing with them. Another point is that tools are always worth somthing if the times get tough, LIKE NOW. Hope I dont have to sell any of mine.

I've purchased tools based on your recommendations and high-quality, up-close picts, so I would say you're just as guilty of enabling all of us too:bounce:

Remember all that gearwrench stuff you were pushing? Now almost everybody is hooked..........

I'm glad that I was able to make such a positive impact on the community with my obsessive reviews and videos. :)

I just feel obligated to share the wealth when it comes to such a fine product, and outstanding value that GearWrench typically offers up.
