When I retired I was forced into the handyman game.
Now I want to share and I hope others will do the same.
Today we talk a little about socket wrenches.
Socket wrenches come in big and small.
You should have both.
Extensions of various sizes are also needed.
Now besides your usual 9/16, etc, you have sizes in mm's which will drive the average american learning to be a handy man crazy.
I just figured it out.
Buy a set of each.
Then buy a set of each again.
Learn the most common used sizes and pick them up at yard sales etc...
If you plan to regularly do work around your house, you or someone else will lose your most common sizes,
thus the need for backups.
Thanks for joining us today.
Please do share your knowledge with the rest of us.
