    What have I done?

    Awhile ago someone walked off with my toolbox and everything in it when I was under the car. Ive got my backup socket set but besides that have been without most hand tools for about 4 months now. Well I just broke down and bought about $350 worth (including the box). When you lay $350 in tools out on the ground it's surprisingly barren.



    But I am a man again. Kinda stoked to try the open ended ratcheting wrenches.

        Sad fact is that tools are hella expensive.

        if some one stole my tools, i would've been kicken ass and taken a few initial, cause if some one stole my tool, i wouldn't have time for names.

          I just spent $350 on a new impact gun yesterday. I hate tool prices.

            wheelhop, if you lost and need to replace any standard wrenches (i'll be damned if i can find something to use my set for), i have extras that you can have for nothing. shoot me a PM if you do.

              Stealing a man's tools is the lowest thing you can do to another man. The law of karma tells me his nuts will be in some industrial accident.

                I know the feeling when someone steals your tools. I had an employee steal about $1200 worth of tools from me 5 years ago over a 3-4 week period. Thieves are the scum of the Earth.

                    this is why I buy cheap tools that have lifetime warranties. about the only thing I dont plan on skimping on is my tap and die and gearwrenches that i'm planning on buying.

                      Yes you can! I have found some great deals on tools at those places.

                        I was working out on the street like so:



                        Here it is all set up... wish I had a wrench organizer.



                        I really mainly got it because I need to install this
