Likwid Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 My buddy just bought a rolling toolbox and the guy who sold it said to keep the tools in it...Well for some idiotic reason the guys had 10+ of each socket... he's gonna take 2 of each, give me 1 of each and pitch the rest...So if you want one you have to let me know ASAP. I don't know the quality, brand or anything else, I just know they are free, and go all the way from 1" down to tiny...let me know asap, I doubt he's going to throw anything away tonight but you never know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likwid Posted July 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Are they all SAE?I think the majority are, if there are any metrics it's going to be sparse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuikAccord Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I could use some free sockets however you are on the other side of ohio from me. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey1 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Not worth the trouble lol, even for $10 Hence why I'm seeing any interest to even give them awayI can see that. I have at least 10 of every size in 1/4" mostly sae. I took one of my old 6 drawer top boxes and put on a shelf for my kids. They now get all of my old tools and it keeps them occupied while I am wrenching and outta my boxes. I am a tool whore. (wow that doesnt sound good?) I can't get rid of anything.

Whitey1 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 LOL, tool whore.You also answered my question of "What jackass has 10 sockets in one size!" lol sorryYour fine. I used to frequent garbage sales and would buy up any boxes that had tools and would get alot of undesireable sockets and wrenches with it. When I worked on boats I made sure to use those tools and not the good ones. In the wise words of a coworker from a marina.."I will buy snap-on when they design tools that float!"

Dweezel Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 10 is a bit over kill, but I bet I have at least 4 of each. in fact I know i have at least 4 of each, min 2 sets at home, min 2 sets at work, and I've usually got an extra 'junk' set stashed in the lower drawers for unfortunate events of one breaking or becoming lost in the middle of a job. So I'd say I've got at least 6 sets between the two, sockets and wrenches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likwid Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Are they magnetic sockets or non magnetic sockets?assume cheapest, so non-magnetic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevysoldier Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 assume cheapest, so non-magneticThe battery is a tight fit and i'm having a difficult time getting it back out. The terminals are not connected.Also the socket is not magnetic, so no magnet will work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Likwid Posted July 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 k, well my buddy is going to just give me the whole lot of them instead of pitching them. I'll post pictures and what's available as soon as I get the stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
