Socket Contact Points: Preliminary Thread

[DavidB]

start swimming...

most are clean but some of them are going to be dirty (i'm sorry). I was only home for the weekend (in yet another state this week) so I didn't have time to drop them in the parts washer and give them a scrub.

and, of course, it wasn't until i was about 3 hours from home when i realized i left a few old crappy taiwan/japan sockets on the workbench and that I had forgotten to include the gearwrench sockets (and handle).

No problem. I'll toss them in the ultrasonic cleaner. I'm just happy to have them.

All of Beelsr's sockets arrived in the mail yesterday. My current plan is to try to get everything done by this weekend and get it posted. I hope the Metrinch sockets make it in before the weekend. If they don't then I'll add them to the post later.

Thanks!

I'd like to suggest that a new thread be started....

I believe that David said he would start a new thread.

It will be a new thread. I'm writing it currently so keep an eye out!

I have mostly snap on tools as i am a mechanic by trade, my father in law bought the Metwrench set (black case wrenches and sockets from sears) and i looked at it and said to myself that's a gimmick, he passed away years later and my mother in law gave me this set and i used it and all i have to say is WOW it works and is like snap on quality.
