Why is it becoming so increasingly hard to find tools?!?!?
I need a T handle Torx driver in T27. You'd think I was asking people in Pashtu for directions to the nearest nuclear research facility!
If you're tired of Amazon and the rest of the Internet kicking your ass in the market place, maybe you should remove your head from your ass.

Re: Tool rant
We have Tool Zone here in the north end of Denver and they have just about anything. Last summer I was looking for a 15/16 crows foot. Go ahead and try and find one of those. Typical cheap chinese stuff has 7/8 and 1" but not 15/16" Found a set at Tool Zone. Too bad I had to grind the hell out of the crows foot so I could remove my oil pressure sending unit on my Harley Road King.

Re: Tool rant
The trouble is that anyone that actually knows anything about the job needs to be paid accordingly.
So they are replaced by a mouth-breather that will work for minimum wage.
