I recently moved all of my general purpose hand tools from a tupperware type toolbox to a satchel. I already like the satchel better. Pockets on the inside and out allow for an even distribution of tools, and the outer pockets are great for the most common use tools.<\/p>\n

Pliers and screwdrivers are the most commonly used in our house, and my tools don’t always get put back, even though the other tool-owner in the house has her own set. Somehow my needle nose and wire snips have disappeared, and I have been reduced to some very ancient worn out versions. Also, my good pliers given to me by Grandpa Tom way back, have about had it, after serving a couple of well used decades.<\/p>\n

So for Christmas, I arranged for everyone in the family to have a present under the tree *TO* me *FROM* each of them. It was a surprise. They didn’t know they were, collectively, giving me 11 new pliers including some mini-pliers I have sorely needed for electronic work. They have blue handles, so they will stand out as “Dad’s” and should not be leaving my tool satchel.<\/p>\n

Thanks family! Now stay away from my tools!!!!<\/p>\n

One reviewer complained that several of the mini-pliers did not included grip threads in them. I’m not sure when working with small wires, screws, etc, that I would want grip threads. He returned them, but I’m happy to have them.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
