I just got this little moody set in.

Definitely nicer than the Craftsman version I have, though it's plastic holder is much more convenient than this vinyl pouch that's kind of fiddly to deal with.
I like that!

Only tools I bought over the last month were gifts. I did buy some consumables as I got the sawzall blades at HD and the Lenox blades at TSC. I bought the Lenox blades on clearance and the 2 pack ended up the about the price of one blade.

I was so impressed with the driver set that I wanted to try some of their other stuff so I ordered this cool Moody mini max set off Ebay earlier this week, it's been shipped but hasn't arrived yet.



It's a shame they don't seem to offer a set like this anymore,  you can either get specific individual sets or the big $150 sets which I don't need.

A knife is one of man's oldest tools after all.

Payed $15 with one of the $5 ace rewards I got in the mail the other day, I'll buy the metrics when the other becomes valid on the 16th.
No sense paying full price when I can just wait a little and save $5.

If you chuck those tee handles up in a drill they make a really good paint stirrer.  :lol_hitting: Might discolor the handle a bit.  :93:

At least they also stamp them unlike Bondhus does these days, so even if I did that I'd still know what size they are.  ;)

ordered a Wright 9180 from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Wright-Tool-9180-Four-Way-Screwdriver/dp/B0042SY0P2 . Both the catalog and the Amazon listing, show a translucent dark red handle similar to the old Upson drivers. This is what arrived. I called Wright and they said they make 2 different styles of handles. Not sure if I am going to return it or not.

Pratt-Read manufacturers the screwdrivers for WRIGHT,  but like WRIGHT it seems you can only buy their stuff through distributors or under various brands that the contract for.

I've had a Similar issue with a spinner handle, WRIGHT offers one with the female drive in the handle and one without but many sellers don't notice the difference in the stock photos and  often use the wrong one.

Eww nice. 👍🏼  :bravo_2: I need some new ones. I bet those don’t bend like Horrible Frights.  :08:

If you can’t fix it with a hammer, it must be electrical.

I actually don't have a set of picks like that yet , but there have been times where they might have come in handy.
I think I'll probably just get a Pratt-Read  set at some point,  I've been pretty happy with their stuff for the money.
