Default Tool ****!!

Well my wife buys shoes and i buy tools! I have been wanting a set of sockets for my tool box since i got the new boxes. I already had a decent set of craftsman sockets but they are in my roll around. Sears was having a sale basically half off soooooo i decided to get they. The sets came with little plastic trays but i opted for the stands. The set also came with there new design rachet. They are pretty nice and the distance inbetween clicks is about half the old ones. Anyways all the below was $200. I plan on filling in the gaps in the stands next time i goto sears. Then i will have a FULL set







I also picked up a set of screw drivers a few weeks ago from sears and a couple of sets of torx and nut drivers from harbor freight





Lastly i picked up the biggest set of wrenches at sears during a christmas sale. The organizer i got at northern tools




Here are my new boxes i got at christmas. Crappy thing is that i am almost out of room again.

Ya i kinda nerd out with organizing my stuff. My roll around is a little less organized. That is my next project.

The roll around cart is really nice when your working under the hood. Basically anything i need is in it.












Like i mentioned. I like to buy tools. We all have our sicknesses.
