- First off, I want to thank everyone on their input for the tools. Looks like everyone is seeing the "Craftsman" name going down hill. I don't think I'll get her CM stuff. Then I started getting confu

- I would like to hear any comments about these also. I have been thinking of getting a set for my Lotus 7 replica and the wife's Wrangler, a small universal set would be nice in these space constrain

- I have a set, and they seem reasonably well made. I don't reach for them first, though. They sort of feel looser on the nut/bolt and this "play" reduces the amount of useful motion of the nut/bolt pe

- They grip the sides of the hex head instead of the edges, like some other high end tools. The reality is that a lot of metric sizes are close to other SAE sizes, so (at least in the larger sizes) yo

- I've had 'regular' craftsman stuf rust, pretty quick even. especially the pliers, which aren't chromed, so what would you expect? the chromed stuff rusted, but it wasn't overnight. I figure even when
