    Bonney tools are almost collectable now. Tappet wrenches are also thin.

    I kind of agree with GH41 on the adjustable wrenches and I hate the cut outs on the armorers wrenches.

    I largely have Craftsman wrenches and sockets. I've had a set of Craftsman tappet wrenches for several years, I bought them when our local Sears store closed. I checked and Sears apparently doesn't carry them anymore.

    This looks like the same set: https://www.amazon.com/Polished-Craf...=tappet+wrench

    Mine are nice, no raised panels on the handle, nicely polished.

    That is some funny shit right there, and clandestine's response is epic.

    Talking

    All together now...

    Let's learn now how to use an adjustable wrench.
    1, Identify the nut or bolt you want to tighten.
    2. Open the adjustable wrench by turning the screw mechanism. ...
    3. Slip the open jaw over the nut and hold it in place. ...
    4. Turn the wrench in a clockwise direction to tighten it, or counter-clockwise to loosen it.

    You guys are great

    FWIW, I use much of the non AR Specific Tools around the house and on the vehicles too. Wife and Kids use them too and know to wipe them down and put them back in the proper place.

    Thanks

    I just ordered the wrenches. I can always use them if they won't work for the AR's.

    Yeah, and kudos to clandestine for not asking GH41 how many AR's he's worked on.

    Nice setup clandestine. Thanks for posting the pics. I think your type of setup is much better than having tools in drawers and boxes. But it takes a lot of time and thought to get a good setup like yours.

    Looking at your set up reminds me of my high school auto shop.

    You just need to draw an outline around each tool on the peg board and you’ll be set :-)
