got a $200 gift car for x-mas. went to sears to see what they had. my problem is I HAVE LOTS of wrenches, plenty of screw drivers, and all the allens i would ever need but i have NO sockets, ratches, extensions. so i wanted a kit that had a majority of sockets. and i wanted everything from 1/4 drive to 1/2 from 7/32 to 1" deep, shallow, 12pt, 6pt, metric and standard. most kits come with the cheap wrenches but this kit came with full polished ratchet wrenches too! so looks like ill add those to the collection i already have.
the kit i bought. normally $400, paid $200
Craftsman 309-Piece Mechanic's Tool Set: Love Your Job at Sears
now my problem is storing them. since there are so many (3 driver sizes PLUS 12pt/6pt and metric/strandard) i need a shit load of storage for them.
i WANT these...
Amazon.com: Lisle 40900 Red 1/2" Magnetic Socket Holder: Home Improvement
but my buddy gave me one set of these
Grip 6 pc Socket Organizer Tray Set - Amazon.com
i still need to buy a SECOND set of those^ just to have enough space... so i would need 6 sets of the one i like to make them all work. that would be $150 for storage of $200 worth of sockets HAHAH
what does everyone else use for socket storage?
