Great tool for tools and equipment

Very useful tool. I use them all the time when I'm working on my chain or when I'm working on timing and for many other reasons.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • I will add later

Worked great as a shower drain wrench

These tools worked as intended in place of the Oatey shower drain wrench. The hooks and handles are strong enough to withstand the force required to pull the drain.

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • New Competitors

Ideal for lockout kit

Locking yourself in the bathroom? The damn office emergency panel is stuck again. Fear not, these bad boys will save the day. I use them more now than my favorite sparrows, which cost 20x more than them.

Pros
  • Easy to install
Cons
  • Not as thick as other picks

Handy pick set

Handy pick set. They're small, which is handy for working in tight spaces. The only complaint is that the handles are molded plastic and the stitching isn't smoothed out. It was a little uncomfortable until I brought them a Dremel.

Pros
  • Satisfied so far
Cons
  • Reliability

A must have in your tool box

Love this set. Nice set, I use it often. I thought they were bigger than her, but they're pretty strong. Bought to remove clutch springs from my 50cc scooter but have used them on other projects. Definitely a must for every tool box.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • Useless features

Tricky lock pick set

I couldn't get them to work with my lock. I felt they were too fragile for that and too thick to get to the place. However, I've since found other uses for them and therefore rated them a 2, whereas I used to think they were a negative 1 and that it was a bad investment.

Pros
  • High test scores for hold and durability
Cons
  • boring packaging

Did exactly what I bought them for.

I have a 1948 Chevrolet and had to remove the door panel to fix the latch mechanism. To remove the door panel, you must first disconnect the inside door handle and power window handles. There is a special clamp release tool that holds them. Unfortunately, the special tool will not work on a '48 Chevy. That's where this handy little kit comes in. I used a hook to grab the clip that holds the doorknob and window handles and it worked great where the expensive special tool didn't work. I'm sure…

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Good but not great
