How 'bout that Pocketwrench II eh? Teeth on the wrench could be better but overall I like it. :tu:

I've been thinking about this. Could it be due to the fact that those teeth are supposed to be made for both metric and US sizes? If that's true, would it be possible to grind away one or the other and be left with just a metric/US-only PW-II with better grip? I reckon the steel is hardened so how would one go about that?

Sounds like a lot of hard work that.

Considering the work involved, and finished product, you'd be better off just buying a Funnybones.   :hu:  (<- testing out the newbies)

Why not just leave the sae sizes there?  :think:  I'm sure not going to grind off the metric ones on mine.  :D  It's just a matter of time before the US joins the rest of the world and goes 100% metric. Probably not in my lifetime though.  ::)
Sometimes change is a good thing, other times not so much!

Probably for the best, would be a waste to through out hundreds dollar worth of SAE sized tools.  :-X

A lot of S.A.E. wrenches are interchangeable metric wrenches for the smaller sized sets i just add a 10mm and 12mm.

I think Alcohol, Tabacco and Firearms should be a convenience store, not a government agency.
