Is that a tub full of 19/32nd sockets?View attachment 56149View attachment 56150
*New to me tools* got them for my birthday back on the 23rd. This is a 1941 Snap-on socket. View attachment 56151View attachment 56152
Got these at an Estate Sale yesterday. Lots of wartime goodies in here that’s where the Snap-on came from too. There was a few wartime in the pawn shop haul too.
Haha. There is a 9mm a 12mm and 15mm in there. And pretty much every SAE size. I’ll probably never use them because most is wartime stuff. It will go with the collection instead of the daily use tools. I use SAE all the time on dads truck and on old stuff that comes into the shop.Is that a tub full of 19/32nd sockets?
You will love 'em... A great investment!Got a good deal on these lightly used, 1/2 and 1/4”. I love 1/4” drive but never had a flex head ratchet. I don’t know how much I care about the grips. I think personally I prefer bare metal grips, but I’ll see if these grow on me.

I think you will like the Capri one. My go to ratchet these days is Capri mine is just so smooth I love it. I plan to buy more soon.Over the last several months I bought 3 inexpensive 1/4" drive ratchets, all made in Taiwan. Was looking for an update over my old pair of 20-tooth Snap-on ratchets.
The 4.5" long Blackhawk-Proto was the most expensive ratchet, at $26. Has a tiny 72-tooth head, but high backdrag. The ratchet uses an unconventional retention clip on the head that has me wondering how it is released. I saw the same type of retention method in a photo of a Carlyle ratchet. A quick google search did not turn up any rebuild kits for it.
The Husky has a 144-tooth head and low backdrag. No rebuild kits for it, just return to Home Depot for a new one with no questions asked and no receipt required.
The $19 Capri has a 72-tooth flex head with high backdrag. The head is attached to the handle with a torx screw-pin instead of a plain pin. Rebuild kits are readily available.

Capri gives a credit so on the next purchase the credit is deducted. I think in general they are a cut above some others in the class. The wrenches, some of them have open end anti slip features and so on. Everything is free shipping on their website and it seems to have the best prices on their brand.I think you will like the Capri one.

I agree. Yes I got points from the order which I plan to use soon. They really are great tools. I haven’t used the wrenches yet.Capri gives a credit so on the next purchase the credit is deducted.
