Finally getting around to posting the order. Nothing too special or crazy but the Wilde prybars are nice.

Second to Independence Day is The Festival of San Fermin in Spain - the premiere running with the bulls; hence my box art suggestion. Of course, it's going on the wall.

That is a seriously bizarre thing to think of. Anything you want to share with the class?

That said I love my new Armstrong ratchets even more now that I've had some time to use them.
This is a Porsche box

They're Pratt Read screwdrivers . You can view them here. http://store.harryepstein.com/search?q=pratt+read

They're similar to my older Klein screwdrivers.

So as things are winding down, I'd just like to thank all you guys again for the great show of support that you showed. Not only did "Epstein's Day" make a significant impact on our business but the residual effects of this thread brought in a lot of people over the past few weeks. Thanks Bull and thank you everyone for supporting us.

The best part of the thread is looking at the box art, and looking at some of the tools people have purchased. Epstein's has such a wide range of tools that it is pretty cool to look at the pics of some of them. I have ordered from them in the past and will continue to do so.
