Again I totally with George.  For the longest time I had 1 snap-on combo
wrench.  I totally loved using it, it fit the nuts and bolts better and just
felt better in my hand.  I have had craftsman for years but a couple of
years ago I replace all my 3/8 inch sockets and all my double ended wrenches
with Snap-on bought off of eBay. I was carefull on the prices ( used a
current snap-on catalog for reference ) and ended up getting new or like new
tools for half price.  Now the Craftsman tools are my trunk tools used for
performing miracles at the side of the road.

I ended up with box wrenches, offset box and s wrenches and have had places
where they made the job easier and more pleasant.

In order of preference brands would be

Snap-on
Mac or Matco
Facom - their ratchets are the best
Kobalt
Husky
Craftsman
