Whats the price on tha master set?

And what exactly would a master set include?

Edit: Nevermind, you answered while I was typing.

 

[Nix]

It looks like the impact sockets only come in metric. Is that right?

 

[wrenhandtools]

for now yes

 

[amishman]

It is set GCAT1807 - $71.95 before the 20% off.
10,11,12,13,14,15,16,17,18,19,21,22,23,24,27,30,32mm flank sockets with one 5" extension in the tray to keep stuff organized in your box.

Do you have a link to a picture of this set Mike?

I can't find it on the web site. With so many tools, it is hard to find.

This sounds like a nice set for me.

Just plastic!!

 

[wrenhandtools]

amish...these should be a pic under the Master Tool sets Tab. Also if you search the impact socket tab at the left after you click MAster Sets, it is the 10 pcs in the green metal box, but this set doesn't come with the box...just the black plastic tray.
Thanks for asking by the way!

I bought a 10inch 1/2 drive extention and like it, the ball is firm and it fits tight on both ends.

What is the wait time on tools?

What is the wait time on tools?

If Mike has it in stock he will get it to you in 3-4 days.

He doesn't have everything in stock though, he is still building his inventory.

 

[wrenhandtools]

It is true, I don't have everything that they make yet. But towards the end of next year I should be well and truly on my way to having quite a large inventory. "things are happening!" Also, important I won't string someone along. If I don't have what they've inquired about, I am honest about the time delay involved.

As I have often found on this site, when someone "calls someone out" at the beginning of a thread, many other posters find it distastful and come to the defense of the target, making everone feel bad for him and turning it into a tide of sysmpathy and support - often times the target comes out smelling like a rose - even if they don't even reply!!!

Goes to show most people don't like harsh words or actions directed at people who haven't done anything to deserve it!! Brings a tear to your eye!

 

[jlenander]

I too received a set of Ratcheting Crimpers from Mike. They are nice...and a great value. Fast shipping and packaged well. I see more tools from Mike in my future!

Thanks Mike!

Well, since this thread is so short, I'll add to it.

Here's what I found

- "Today, all TOPTUL professional tools are manufactured by TOPTUL production chain based on TOPTUL Design & Quality Specifications under ISO-9001:2000 Edition Quality Management."

But it doesn't say ISO 9000 certified.

- I checked out the web site: There is a page which has some testing data. Their web site doesn't display page URLs so I can't give a reference.

- Their tools meet or exceed ANSI and DIN standards. Their new line of super torque wrenches exceed ANSI standards by 60%.

They don't say which standards.

- They have a lifetime guarantee and liability coverage.

I believe it's correct that you can meet a standard without being certified by the governing body that sets that standard. At least it stands to reason, doesn't it? But I think you're suggesting (or I'm inferring ) that TopTul's promo copy means to be ambiguous

We manufactured a product once, and it was certified by TUV, the German version of Underwriters Laboratory. We made another to the same standard, but didn't go through the "certification" process. I wasn't involved with it, so I don't know what the costs were, but it was necessary for us to sell to the German market we wanted to sell to, which was their version of Wal-Mart, which was, in typical German fashion, a very high-quality place

 

[rcleaver]

My understanding is that quality procedures and standards compliance need to be verified or audited before certification. Otherwise, anyone could claim compliance.

I'm not suggesting anything -- just making observations. If you look at the testing data, it seems reasonable to conclude they are making quality tools.

The following comes directly from their web site, without editing. I don't know if it was there when the thread was started, but I'm surprised no one seems to have checked it before.

"Torque Test" Set Value - Comparison between International DIN/ANSI Standard & TOPTUL Standard

Damage Test
The breaking point of TOPTUL Wrench Torque testing result is 3 times higher than DIN standard.

The maximum bending angle for TOPTUL wrench is over 60°, and that guarantees operation safety.

Yup, all that information was there on their website before this thread was started.
