They don't seem to have any 6 point.

The 12 point stuff you can find anywhere and it's cheap.

The Gearwrench 6 point stuff I bought has tolerances that aren't very confidence inspiring...to the point that I crawled out from under the Buick and fetched a Craftsman out of the truck to remove the oil drain plug.
 
Because I have pretty much all of the tools that I'm going to need for what I do, I really don't look for them too much. Every once in a while, a Kent-Moore specialty tool is needed and I have to really go digging for that one. Otherwise, I just make what I need.

Lowe's has Cobalt and Craftsman.

At least in Salt Lake City.

For some reason when I hit the permission thing for their website to access my location, it decided I'm in Utah. :dunno:

Their main brand is Kobalt though. They also have Craftsman at Blains Farm and Fleet.

I haven't been in a Home Depot in years because they don't have one around here.

ACE Hardware also carries Craftsman.
 
It may be the franchisee that locks up early. My local Ace is a great store. Yes, about 20% higher than the big box stores, but they're only 1 mile away for me. HD & Lowe's at 8 miles one way. Plus they have whatever materials the houses in that circa use that are in that particular neighborhood. IE: plumbing valves, doors, plus whatever updates to the building codes as far as materials are concerned.

And most of the time, you are helping to0 support a neighbor that might own that store.

I call them ASS Hardware because they close early, they bug the hell outta me whenever I go in there as if I've never been there and can't read the f*ing signs hanging from the ceiling that tells me where everything is, and their prices on everything is higher than anywhere else.

the Ace hardware store near me, is also a franchise store, and it has been in business since 1930. yes, a bit higher on many things, but then too, they have a lot of the old stuff that new chain stores simply do not have.

still has the original creaking wooden floors too. the owner for decades always wore a bow tie.

That's why I go to the Home De-pot. No one ever bothers you and even if you ever did need any kind of assistance, they are nowhere to be found.

How's Sarah?

Sleeping a lot.
Temp 102 because she has pneumonia now too. They've got her on antibiotics.

She did her physical therapy today though.


Her brother has been missing for 6 days. Nobody knows where he is. He borrowed her mom's car last Tuesday just to run some errands and then he just dissappeared. They couldn't trace his phone and the car has no tracking on it and nobody has heard from him since.

Sarah doesn't know, but I told the hospital social worker that we have to brace for it in case she gains the finger dexterity necessary to log into her Facebook on her phone, or if someone in her family is stupid and mentions it to her.

Hopefully the family keeps quiet about that for now.
