    Hmm...have seen them in local makes. Did you check Eastman's website? Send an email or give them a call, they should help.

      Thanks, Ram ji. Zeroed in on the tool kit I wanted. Will call them up for more info. So far no one is picking on all three North, West and South, plus the HO. Damn! Will keep trying.

      Thanks again

      Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
      The girl said, 'NO!'


      And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

          I hate to say this, but you've made me even more happier with these sets. Now it's time for some "SPANNER" hunting. Will keep here posted regarding the decisions. Thanks, again.

          Plus a BIG help needed here.

          I am damn confused as to the imperial to metric conversion. Can you help me out with this. I have gathered a lot of metric to imperial spanner charts, but can you throw in some of our gyaan here, please.

          6 x 7,8 x 9,10 x 11,12 x 13,14 x 15,16 x 17,18 x 19,20 x 22, what are the imperial sizes for these in the correct manner? Also all the tools in SEARS' website are provided in Imperial, big let down!

          And how is this damn thing calculated, as in Imperial in the first place!

          Any gyaan?

          Thanks in advance

          Cheers!

            Remember...they're WAY too expensive...but, bewared...once you hold them, touch them...you'll find an unknown pleasure flowing through your body that craves you to strip down & assemble your vehicle. Don't blame me for it later and...they come with lifetime replacement warranty

                    No, no I got it right. I just want them in mm, because from the pics I see in Sears' webpage, I just see it's in imperial that's why. If that's the case as you mentioned, I'm done for good! Let the hunting begin!

                        +1, I was pondering the same! Will be shipped to Cbe, plus will there have to be any duties associated with this purchase, aargee? Reason being, I read it somewhere in this page, that there is a "duties" part, as posted by rossiter, not so sure though, but any thoughts would be helpful, since you purchased some of Sears' products.

                        Plus, what's a Sears' card? Loyalty card, I guess.

                        Currently I am eyeing on three product groups. Will finalize between them! And start saving!

                        Cheers!

                          BTW, don't tell me I didn't warn you guys earlier...one can buy extremely great set of local tools for the kind of money we spend for Craftsman...but...no work in pleasure guaranteed.

                          Stanley IS ALSO good product, offers better working pleasure than Eastman, Taparia (huh!!!) etc & works out much cheaper OR can buy even more tools for that sum.

                                Hai
                                Since this is a thread related to Torque wrenches. I have a few suggestion. I have been using some for the past 10 years in the company I work for. Here are a few most reliable brands. Norbar - UK make, Britool - UK make. I have been in the calibration field for the past 10 years and believe me these are the best. It maybe little costly than the local ones but it is available in India. Cheers
