I've never worked on a game that was manufactured outside of the USA. I wonder if they will be using metric.

Quoted from Haymaker:While we're on the topic of nut drivers. I have been thinking about grabbing this one for my toolbox. I have just a little portable toolbox that I use if I have to help out a friend on site, but I use it with my own games too because I don't have a dedicated big toolbox for pinball down in my basement yet. Quite a bit more expensive, but seems like a great tool if being compact is a good thing for you!

I have the 1/4"-5/16" version of this tool. Just like the other magnetic Klein's I have, the well is very shallow. The magnet is so strong you either need to leave a thread or 2 on and remove the nut by hand or just have the correct threaded post or bolt loose to remove it from the magnet. I'll give it another shot, but so far it's a little awkward.

There are at least 1 or 2 more sets with my electrical tools. The Vaco on the left I inherited somehow, it's the only one I have. The tip is ground down, it's great for hard to reach tight spots. It has the largest well of any of these. I like the feel of the Kleins and they are great tools. It's what I'm used to using in the field (electrical), I like the rubber grip. Craftsman and Husky are essentially the same tool and are what I end up using most of the time. Perfectly adequate.

I was not aware of this. I already have a Lowes Business Amex. I'll have to check this out, thanks.
Quoted from joetechbob:Registered on lowesforpros.com, but can only find the metric set. Can anyone still find the standard set?
Not sure if this is the same set, shows up as $15 for me.

It does show clearance for the metric set which I'm tempted to get just to have.
