Good mechanics tool set for the FB?
For the past 8 years I've been using one of those kits that has a little bit of everything, ya know, wrenches, sockets, a pair of pliers, screwdrivers, etc. Not the best quality, but has served my needs most of the time.
Problem is it skips over some of the metric sizes, etc. I'd like to get a new set. A good one with all the metric sizes for sockets and wrenches.
What do you guys have?
Right on.

Costco had this set of Crescent tools, I think it was a 200 piece, but Im not sure. I should know, I have one. But anyways, it 200 bucks, and has a shitload of tools. 9mm sockets in 1/2 drive and crap. Very extensive. If they still have them, its an awesome deal.

I have a Craftsman Metric Open/Closed set. A Metric Combo Set, and then a 3/8 1/2 Socket Set, Deep and Shallow with 6 and 12 pt. Added an 18 inch 1/2 pull handle for the 1/2 stuff for the really stuck bolts.
