Good shout about the Allen sockets too. I'll keep my eye out fr a set of them too.

Well, that is a start. I know that it is going to be expensive, but if you stick to a tools of high quality and look after them, you will never have to buy another set... ever!

I have no issues with good quality allen keys (cheapies are a waste of manufacturing) and for most jobs I use them in preference to allen sockets. It is a matter of choice.

But you can find similar kits cheaper.

What was I saying about turning back time?

On the way - now the other set can live in the car - or migrate to my brother who loses just about anything he's ever lent.

Let us know what you think of the Bahco ones when they arrive. I was beginning to wonder if that price was real.

The bahco sets we used at a place I worked got total abuse and never broke.

Gentlemen, if ever your wife suggests you are spending too much on tools refer her immediately to Mr Viney :cheers:!

I priced my tools up for insurance purposes the other day, it came to 15 grand
