When you say 'big' do you mean the box size or the number of pieces? Box size, no idea; pieces, 120 I think.

It's not on offer just now (on their website anyway), so at the full price of £169, which is still very good value.

Hi mate,

I have loads of metric & AF shiney sockets 1/2" & 3/8" drive
but I tend to use these Ebay360190944900 and my trusty
old ratchets. You won't break these sockets!!

Gman.

[POPEYE]

If those ever need a new home, I accept lodgers.

Your welcome to em Matt, there are open ender and rings in there too, i'll have to sort em out and see if we can arrange a surf train or summat,
haveing said the surf is all metric tho i did ues the ring spanner in the pic to get a very stubborn main shaft nut off, (think it was a 3/4 af) the socket i try'd first just split wide open, managed to get this ring on haveing cut it in half in order to get a long sq lenght of box tube on it, as ya can see it bent quite a bit before the nut gave, quality (like breeding) will out

Cheers. Other than the Surf, everything else I work on is good old Imperial, as a rule. Whitworths on rare occasions.

Christ, that must have been one stubborn nut, judging by that spanner.

certainly was matt, i had a 3ft lenght of tube on that spanner and it took all my strenght, tried "shocking" it free wth sharp blows but no good, when it finally gave it sounded like a rifel shot, thought the bolt had sheared, $hit meself!! but it was ok

[Apache]

Nothng?

Not that I've ever found. I dare say you could bodge an imperial spanner onto some sizes if you were that way inclined...
