/diy/ - Do It Yourself

>>2773008
okay after watching a few more youtube videos I understand. $70 for a set of metric and sae was more than I wanted to spend on wrenches but it looks like everything cheaper than that is just dogshit. I wouldn't be using them often enough to justify buying the gucci design, but, for example, today my neighbor asked me for help changing the battery on his riding lawnmower and one of the brackets that held the battery down is on a threaded rod that was too long for my little 1/4" socket set so i needed a wrench. I said I didn't have any wrenches and the neighbor dug around his garage for an hour until he found an old set I could use, made me think it would be worth having an inexpensive set of my own laying around. I know I could PROBABLY get away with buying the cheapest no-name chinesium given my infrequent use, but I just hate owning things that are dogshit and being let down by it when I actually need it for something important
