LOL on the Steppenwolf post by Fred. Amusing truth in music. Snap-on...keeping mechanics broke for over a Century..

My Rollaway & 2 chests are the old Craftsman 26" USA made (Waterloo tools?) Ball Bearing Griplatch models. Mostly Craftsman with a smattering of others, including snap-on.

Flare nut wrenches? Craftsman full polish "professional" in SAE...which I've found out were made by SK for Sears. 1/4" to 3/4". Never used 'em much. Metric? Decades ago, I bought a small set of Wright wrenches from Imparts, and old Panorama advertiser. Set of 3, $17.95, if memory serves. 10 to 14mm. Few have heard of Wright tools. A family owned Ohio company, everything very professional grade, comparable to the tool truck brands. No idea what today's price would be. Used them quite a bit, never a problem.

I'd have loved seeing Wright added to this test...but Glen will enjoy watching it. Seems the cost is justified in this case. Snap-on came out on top. I put this guy in the same league as project farm when it comes to testing tools.

Being a tool junkie is a terrible thing...you know you're hooked when you find yourself buying something that "might be handy", but you don't have an immediate use for. I guess there are worse vices, though.
