Mike Crawford trapper M Joined: Dec 2011 Posts: 543 Western Oregon	Originally Posted by Eagleye I have a lot of tools and invested a lot in tool organization, a place for everything and everything in its place. When my son was born, he got tools for every Birthday and Christmas- the year he moved out I bought him a matching toolbox to mine, both boxes are labeled and laid out identical- nice when we’re wrenching on stuff at each other’s houses. I did the same for my son-in-law, I keep a rummage list of what they need and enjoy filling in their tool collections- I guess we’re all OCD. In lean manufacturing we’d call that 5S lol. Sort, shine, set in order, standardize, sustain.

It’s like my tool box is magnetized but those two things are opposite magnets. You could take a handful of 12mm or 1/2" sockets out on a rope bridge over a massive chasm. The bottom of your pocket could tear open, spilling them all out and every one would land perfectly on the rope for easy retrieval. You could be in the middle of a vast, empty warehouse with nothing in it and drop a 10mm on the floor and it will disappear into the concrete.

I don’t need em but if I can haggle and get em real cheap I’ll buy em. Usually from the children or wife of a mechanic that doesn’t know the difference between a snap on ratchet and a craftsman ratchet. Just think one day when you pass if you're old lady doesn't know the difference between a duke and a MB
