    None! When I need them, I can never find them. I have to go buy some more. Then when I don't need them, they're always cropping up.

    Maybe the sock fairy is dabbling in them.

        True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

        Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!

          I've got a few more.


          My collection of Ikea furniture must be a bit larger than yours

          Seriously though... Define "sets"
          I have between the gun toolbox and the rest of the toolboxes at least 4 each SAE and Metric in the "Swiss Army" style folding... but they tend to be missing some of the odd sizes.

          I probably have another 4 or 6 each SAE and Metric in the type that come in the flat holders, maybe a couple in zip-lock pouches.

          Add another 4 or 5 sets that my wife bought at the 99c store (that have really never been used except as a punch or nail-set), and the various Ikea leftovers....

          I've probably got enough to melt down and make a 1911.

                One, a long 5mm if I recall correctly for removing the stock on my o/u shotgun.
                Long ago I hand a different size for adjusting the rear sight on a Webely Tempest air pistol, but both pistol and it's Allen wrench are long one.

                  More than I need or want.

                    if i was a rich man i'd buy me a train just so i'd have reason to buy me a big set.

                      Well, as an automotive technician I have multiple sets of metric and standard. Not really because I am a gun owner though.
                      Same here. Plenty of matco and snap on sets in different types, sockets, ball heads, stubby, long, T-handle, sets just for brake calipers..

                      probably could sell them and buy an FN scar.

                          That's the good stuff right there. No Dollar Store Allen wrenches around here...

                              Haha, I was just going through my tool chests last night and was thinking I have a lot of damn Allen wrenches, multiples.

                                So I was going to actually look but then couple things occurred to me
                                Do I count the ones that are stripped on one side, or the ones that are twisted or even the ones that got broke in 2 (I always feel that I can always still use them)
