Cool nineball..............looks like a very useful set there.
I gotta know though............you grunted all the way home?
Was that a REAL Tim Allen Home Improvement grunt............man style.................or just a couple of half hearted quite grunts when you were on your own?................lol

Ha, that's the exact same set that my wife bought me for our anniversary! Nice, clean, and shiny set! lifetime replacement makes it the best in the world, after snapons!

i gotta say, while it is a nice set, they certainly pushed the numbers up with a lot of un-needed sockets. should have included more wrenches or at least one set of pliers.


boxes are at the new upholstery place being covered this week, along with some metal fabrication at another place for something else i have in mind.

btw.. until the 19th, if you buy online (can pick up at a local store) and pick up $50 more worth of tools to hit the $500 mark the set will cost you $360 after the current discount promotion.

I agree with you there Aquill! Snap on is only worth it if you do mechanics for a living!

Yeah and your shop is the one paying for it! I've found that craftsman is more than enough for me they look good work good and the cost of them is also good!

Now if they'd only fit a gps chip in each piece so you could track em!

LOL! I would consider doing something like that on a snap on, considering the price of them! This set here is 2600 bucks!

Not really aquill! You'd be surprised how sweet they are to work with. They fit so comfortably in the hand and they've thought of every detail. They're just overly expensive!
