Furniture chest assembly

Just returned from 8 years in the Philippines with only 2 suitcases. I rented an apartment and had to start from scratch with the furnishing. Some of the tables and chairs I assembled had hex head screws instead of Phillips head screws. Sure, they give you a small 4mm allen wrench to tighten them, but good luck tightening the bolts that hold the legs tight enough to hold securely. I actually found the solution by reading another review here on Revain. I bought for a long time so as not to suffer from attempts to slide the ratchet into the corner of the table. For that purpose and also for things like motorcycle headlights etc. Here is my story of why I bought these allen wheels. I like the case where the different sizes are separated which makes it easy to find the right size. Overall a great purchase. Advice for those of you on getting your legs to sit up straight. It means putting weight on it. What is the weight you ask? A gallon of water weighs 10 pounds. Store your milk bottles and use them as compression weights.

Pros
  • GREAT VISIBILITY: Hex heads are laser engraved markers for easier and quicker bit selection
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
