interesting thought. not a bad idea either.
i do see that most of them have a hex end like a spark plug socket for driving with a wrench as well. i suppose i could buy singles and modify them but if one buys more than a few then cost and time are a factor. a set of 11 sae drom 3/8-1 or 15 pc from 10-24 can be had from sunex or astro for something in that 40-50 dollar per set range. one can hardly by a set from hf and cut them down for that.
i do see the value in the do it yourself, pride of ownership like you speak of as well.
uncle buck called me a collector............
