Default Do you use 3/4 inch drive sockets for light home use purposes

Just trying to see if anyone ever really needed 3/4 drive sockets
(impact and not), for light home use. Nothing bigger than a pickup or a
15 HP compressor or a small CNC mill like Bridgeport Series II type
stuff.

My feeling is that these sockets are only for serious equipment like
excavators and bulldozers. Am I mistaken?

The reason for my question is kind of obvious.


I have an impact and a regular 3/4" set. Plus the 3/4 impact wrench. I use
these as much as any other wrench set.

And, of course, all my work is for light home hobby use.

looks like a lot of folks here just do micro scale work.
