DR99 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I picked up the Dewalt Twin Tex Adjustable Ratchet a HD for 9 bucks you can't go wrong at that price. I will say I am shocked at how heavy the tool is It's got some serious heft to it. I haven't really had a chance to try it on anything yet either the problem is it's too large and bulky unless your working in the open, and how often is that?http://www.homedepot.com/p/t/204465076?cm_mmc=CJ-_-4485850-_-10368321&catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051&N=5yc1v&R=204465076&AID=10368321&PID=4485850&SID=_A5ZCHphEeOtos7YjoC7kw0_Uazu3_0_0_0&cj=true# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicholasShetley Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 That is why I have never bought one. I rarely have a nut or bolt in the open besides drain plugs but for everything else it is just too big.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted January 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 It was a total impulse purchase if I never use it for actual work I could reuse it for personal protection they would never expect to be knocked out by it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NicholasShetley Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 Guess that would work. I certainly wouldn't expect it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 You'll find it handy to have. Is it going in a road kit or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DR99 Posted January 11, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I haven't really though about it really yet. I would have never paid full retail for one It's in my tool bag at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moze Posted January 11, 2014 Report Share Posted January 11, 2014 I saw those when they were $30 and couldn't think of enough uses for it. I saw them when they were $20 and couldn't think of enough uses for it. For $9 it might be worth getting for those odd occasions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moze Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 Got two...one for me for who knows what, and one for someone else......for who knows what. But for $9, who cares! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
