just did the design for my flow bench ...so I'll start on it in a week or so...just gotta buy some materials

I just bought this set for 29 bucks , they work real good at home but their a bit flimsy for at work , I don't think they would stand up to daily abuse but they are good for at home repairs
no ratchet for the sockets but I have a few good ratchets so thats no biggie

Very nice Bert! Can't wait for the details.

Hey Stevo, those "T" handled allens with the ball ends are so frickin' nice. I never gave 'em much thought for my home DIY stuff until I started in my current job. I was given the task of outfitting our toolbox and bought both the SAE and metric sets of those. Four years later I am so spoiled. They can't fit into everything but man they are handy. Of course you already know this, I just found it amazing that such a subtle difference in a tool makes such a huge difference in usage.

Most of the money I've saved in dealer labor costs for my mods has been spent on tools...

Icurrently have about $$20,000 in tools..... but i'm always looking for more!!!! Kinda like chrome!!!!!!

Ah nice. I could actually use these. Somehow after the divorce, my tools just seemed to disappear. :(

Funny, my ex tried to claim that half of my tools were hers (like most other things "we" acquired). I told her attorney "She can have half the tools, when I get half of her (famous name manufacturer) basket collection".

The judge said "each party will keep their own small item possessions". Then she tried to claim half of my SUV. The judge looked at me, I said "Well, she'll have to discuss that with GMAC, I leased it". That was the ONLY time I saw her :censor ing attorney show any emotion.. and she wasn't happy.
I was :clap

I have no idea what the question is, but the answer is;
"Girls just want to have fun".
Ask Kath, MissyD and Xena. I know that's right, so I'll be sitting on the curb waiting for my tools. :tour

Contest will be postponed until I get back from Prague on Friday.
