Benn; Try COSTCO; I have a set with open-end on one end and a ratcheting box
on the other-- works great but they forgot to label the sides "ON" and "OFF".

ratchet wrenches Looking to get a set of ratchet box-end wrenches. It would
seem that besides a fine-tooth ratchet, one would want the smallest possible
head diameter (the thinnest I've seen are about 3/16" total wall thickness
including the moving socket and stationary outer wall). Some of the cheaper
sheetmetal-sandwich types have horrendously large heads. I also want units
that are reversible, so that they can have the fixed angled offset. I'm not
hot on flex-head types, which always seem to move when you don't want them to.
And just to make it tougher, I probably can't rationalize a $100+ Snap-On set.
