Need Better Tools
I need better allen and torx sockets. I've had the same set of cheap sockets for a good 10 years now. When it comes to smaller size bolts I seem to be pretty good at stripping the heads on the bolts (yes I'm using the right size). I'm always cautious to try to avoid doing so and turn slowly. Yesterday I noticed my torx 40 was actually twisted and a couple of the others were off a bit too. Any recommendations?
Thank you in advance.

Making sure the bolt heads are clean and your sockets are firmly seated will go a long way to preserving them as well.
ETA: T15 and T20 are small and common, therefore more likely to break. Get one good set, and keep a few cheapies of those two sizes on hand. I haven't broken or twisted a T40 in years, but my main set is SnapOn.
