Title: SAE Hex Drivers
Post by: Crist Rigotti on February 15, 2025, 08:20:22 PM
Guys,
I'm looking for a decent set of SAE hex drivers preferably each size has a different color handle.  I'm looking for a set that each size as its own handle.  I don't want Dubro or Bondus.  I have some metric ones with an aluminum handle that was gifted to me but don't know where they came from.  Any ideas where to get a good set?

   I have these, they are about what you would expect from Craftsman, good enough.

There is this. It may be exactly what you're looking for. With a little persuasion, you may be able to get Sparky to add it to his Amazon store and then order it, thus helping him out a little while still getting exactly what you need.

Those color-coded Craftsmen are what I use.  I only have the #4 & #6 sizes.  All I want for modeling.  Maybe with Sears gone, Craftsmen might be gone too.
