On 1/12/2005 2:53 PM US(ET), took fingers to keys, and
typed the following:

If a person was gonna buy a small socket set for home
use.... would it be wise to get only deep well sockets
instead of standard depth as deep well might be more
useful?

Advice?


If you have anything with a long bolt sticking out of the nut, the deep
ones are better, otherwise you'll be using a wrench on the nut to break
it loose, and then a nut driver to finish screwing it off.
I have a set of both, and in both metric and SAE. Sometimes I wish I had
more deep sockets (and pockets).
