Default Need Tools ?

I just read in the Sears paper starting tomorrow...or online today, sale on Craftsman inch pound and ft pound, get the 3/8 drive, click type torque wrench's....$40 each. That's half their normal price. While your there pick up a Craftsman multi circuit meter...$10. Then head straight for the HD dealer and get a Manual to use your new tools.

They also have these new wrenches I told my wife to get me.
Metric and Standard.
Each wrench has 4 different sizes on each end so that's 8 total different sizes on one wrench!
I thought they were worth having for sure.
Check em out! $19.99/each

Just found them! Dog Bone wrenches! haha They do look like dog bones!

I had a set of those dog bone wrenchs back in the 70's. Can't remember who made them back them. They never really caught on, guess Craftsman is trying to resurrect them from the dead.

I am not one to buy any tool that has multiple size fits all...sounds like a fast way to be aquainted with a nut cracker or stud extractor, jmo.

Guy's that want to work on their own bike or car can buy a complete blow molded cased socket set, std and metric, 1/4, 3/8 and 1/2" for $100 from Craftsman too. I have one just to take on trips and it works great. That way I can leave the good stuff at home in the chest.

Yeh I was never one to buy them either but this just looks like it might come in handy.
Shoot, looks like 4 sockets on each end almost! lol

too bulky to get into typically tight spaces on a motorcycle. Guaranteed to work their way to the bottom of your tool box only to be found 40 years from now in an estate sale.
