Well, good for you, and maybe you never will need them. My new ones, now about
three years old, are still in the plastic bags they came in, still untouched by
Walt hands. Maybe I'll never need 'em, but if I do, I got 'em. Just like out
in the garage, in one of the big, red tool chests, there are complete 1/4",
3/8" and 1/2" drive hex, Torx, square drive, and crowfoot wrenches. I've
probably never needed 90 percent of them. But, like I said, if I need 'em, I
got 'em. I was a Boy Scout, and we had a motto. :-)
And besides, two sets of filter wrenches, big'uns and little'uns, cost about
$5. The hard part is finding the darn things when you need them.
