    This is what I bought for the organizers. I got the rails and bases separately so I could match it to my needs. There are teeth on the rails so they don't slide around, and the sockets twist and lock into place. You can get a sheet of stickers with it too so it's nice and labeled. And the holders remove so you can avoid having open ones without sockets. Overall I am really happy with them.

    no you won't.

    Those are in another dimension, they won't appear back in this reality for another 13,450 or so years.

    Oh yeah, that's what I need. I saw there were even trays too. Looks like I will be Christmas shopping for myself this year. I could easily make a list for the wife and say "get this" and it would be exactly what I want. Thanks for the info.

    I swear I have bought twenty 10mm x 3/8" drive sockets. One time I found one laying on top of my lower control arm. It had been missing for 2 years. How in the world that sucker did not fall off on to the road, I will never understand.

    that socket didn't stay there. It reappeared there through a wormhole the instant before you laid eyes on it.

    He's about as loud as an air tool, that's for sure.

    Tekton rails are really nice. I have a twist lock rail from them that came with a socket set.

    I looked around at a lot of different organizers before I finally settled on these. They're well worth the money. I like tekton tools in general as they seem like a good value.

    Agree, I only have the one set of their sockets but will be adding more. I find the broaching, chrome and fitment better than my US Craftsman stuff. For the price and the product they’re hard to beat IMO. I think you get more than what you pay for with the sockets. A friend has the wrenches from Tekton (and sockets) and only thing negative he’s said is the wrenches open up with overly heavy torque, which is typical, and not a problem for most people.

    One thing I like about them is how you can buy various sized sets and individual things if needed. I wanted a nice complete wrench set so I bought a 6mm-32mm set and it comes with every single one. I'm set for awhile. And this is on top of the wrenches I already have, not pictured. That’s why I want those vertical organizers to I can use my space more efficiently. :anonymous:

    I thought it was a doll for reference. Knowing now that it's your child, that's a good reason to get another toolbox for in the house as a changing table. :D
