Oh I'm framing this quote it's f@#$ing hilarious. Cline you crack me up. :lol:


Gear wrenches are awesome. I use them almost as much as the ratchet. I've got the gearwrench kit too. Like Bernie I get little mileage out of them. If you'e only getting 1 there is no comparison. There are 2 styles of these wrenches. The ratchet part is either course or fine. Since they come in handy in tight and weird places the fine gearing works best.

I have decided to get a set of the regular gear wrenches but I can't decide which is bestest.

Should I get the gearwrench x beam with the flex head, the x beam sans flex, or the reversable combo wrench with/without flex.

Reversable w/ flex head. Probably the most expensive too... What does the set run?

I just used the 'bone' to swap the creaky end link on the S2k in 15 minutes. That thing rules.

Don't forget old man, slutty girls have their place. you can enjoy abusing them and throw them away when your done, just like HF tools.

So I picked up a set of the Craftsman Max axess kits last week and I officially have a toolrection. These things kick ass. The ratchet clicks have a nice feel and the handles are comfy. I am going to decrease the number of sockets I have by a factor of two.

I have the Kobalt version of these. They look about the same and I've found many a use for them.
