How many tools do I actually need?

Keep th one on the bottom: best condition, longest (most leverage/torque), double ended... sell the rest and put the money in your new 'tools/repairs only account'

 

You know, money was invented 'cause people got tired of hauling clay jugs, baskets of rice, cannonballs, beaver pelts, etc. everywhere they went...

 

I would keep them all. Sometimes a stubby wrench comes in handy.

 

"That's what." - She

 

There is an unbelievable amount of truth in that statement.

 

No such thing as too many tools!

 

You can use all of those tools when you come to help me restore my farmhouse. JK

 

Dude, I would love that! I'm a total off grid type, always building something, I can honestly do ANYTHING from the foundation to the solar install!

 

Just the top drawer. They all have their purpose

 

You can never have too many tools! I won't ever get rid of mine...I probably have 5-6 full SAE and Metric socket sets randomly scattered between my garage, my taco, my jeep, my tool bag, and my tool box. Just remember: you never need it, till you need it. I know many times needing a tool and I have to stop what I'm doing to run to Lowes to get the tool. Luckily(and hard on the wallet) for me I live 2 minutes from Lowe's. But I wouldn't part with any tool I own just because you never know.

 

Looks like you are missing the 1/166th bit. Standard, not metric.

 

Next drawer down

 

What I hate is when you need a certain size socket and ALL of them are there except the size you need. You look everywhere and of coarse you find multiples of all the other sizes except the size you need. Finally you give up and use a crescent wrench. After you round off the bolt head, you finish it off with vicegrips.

And then there's the torx. You can never have too many torx bits.
