This arvo i twisted off a 3/8 short extension. Just loaded up on a
really tight sucker of a bolt and BAM the extension let go!!!! Maybe i'm
getting too fat and putting my body weight onto the drive bar didn't
help, but it's kinda sad really. This is part of my tools set that has
been with me since my trainee days when i bought it all back in the late
70s (when i 1st started work). I look back at how far that piece of
steel and me have traveled since then. Silly really but it even has may
name engraved on it in a young kids hand writting too as i did to my
tools back those years. 

Wow... how stupid, some ageing git talking about a piece of socket set. 

(Weird but you have to admit you can get attached to something after
it's gone...)
