    Awesome review! I really like the versatility of it, the configurations are endless. Especially with the accessories. I am still committed to the trays and the terrible metal rails, but the next go around will likely be this system. Looking forward to further updates in the future. Thanks brother!

    Glad UA-cam put your video in my feed. Finally getting serious about organizing my toolbox and haven't been able to find the right solution for my sockets. This is exactly what I've been looking for and it won't break the bank. Thanks for the great review. Subbed and look forward to watching your other vids.

    Those socket boss trays are nice!
    I could use the individual rails too, because they can accommodate more than the standard 10 sockets per rail.

    My OCD tells me you have your 21/32" socket out of order. :) I have the Craftsman master socket set which came with those odd sizes too. I had to buy a 19/32" when I was younger for my 1979 Firebird.

    Hey great video and review. How have the socket clips held up with twisting the sockets on and off. Have they loosened up very much?

    • @chevelle74us
      @chevelle74us  6 років тому +2

      +LDSloan after more than a year now I’d say they held up great. I notice that some of my 1/4” sockets don’t hold on as well as others but I think that more because the sockets themselves are slightly different in size. For me, I find them to be the best solution.

      +Dwayne Denison they are all on 18" rails, except for the impacts, those are on the 13" rails. As far as I know, the impacts are on regular rails. I don't think Ernst makes special rails for impacts, but I could be wrong. Thanks!

    Why does everybody think they need a long ass loud ass intro to every video? Really you need that stupid ass intro that busts out my eardrums ? Why.? You aren't the only one. Seems this trend caught on a few years ago on UA-cam. You are not a professional channel your just some guy with a video. You don't need a theme song especially since you have not figured out volume leveling yet. Everyone with these intro blasts should be banned from UA-cam.

It sounds good on my end, but I don't really have a way of knowing how it sounds on yours. That's where your feedback is welcome. Thanks.
