What are some Good, Quality tools that won't break the bank?

Looking for both standard and metric Hex drivers and Nut Drivers

PB Swiss is a great brand. The handle feels great. Price isn't too bad I think. $40 for 7 drivers I think? Ball and straight.

I started out with this set:



It is pretty decent quality and priced reasonable ($24 for the set). I did have some trouble with the tool tips wearing and ended up stripping a pinion set screw. Also, it seemed I always needed a nut size that wasn't included in the set. The tool "bit" sliding out of the holder gets a bit annoying sometimes. I'd recommend it for occasional use. I still have these and still use them for simple maintenance.

I am now using this:



Though it is roughly 4 times the cost, the quality is worth it. I eventually bought all 4 sets (SAE and Metic, hex and nut drivers). I've been able to remove partially stripped set screws with no problem. Though pricey, the quality is worth the cost if you're into racing.

The duratrax ultimate hex driver sets work very well. Tons of torque as well. When my hudy drivers can't get something loose i turn to my duratrax drivers.

I would go with eds. You can get a whole set of hexes cheap and there one of the best on the market. But my first choice would be MIP but there on the pricey side

I use the tools from Jammin Products. I'm not sure who makes them for Jammin but I haven't had a problem with them yet.

Like the other guy with the cheap dynamite set and the tips wear out pretty quick.

The Dynamite machined sets are very nice and at an affordable price...

I just got the Dynamite set. I think it's 7 pcs. They store in the handle and have a machined tip. Nice and compact. They were $40. All of the tips can be used in a power driver, too. Nut drivers, I got a set of Craftsman around christmas for $10. Can't really beat that.

I use MIP hex drivers and Xcelite nut drivers. Not super cheap, but super good. In my book, if I only have to buy tools once, then it's not breaking the bank.

Buy MIP Thorp drivers and never have to worry about buying tools again.

I have Losi and Thunder Tiger. Both are excellent, but i think I like the Thunder Tiger tools better. After about 6 years I cut a little metal off of the end with a belt sander. They are as good as new again. If you do this, don't let them get hot. Dip in water often.

Don't cheap out on tools in the long run you'll end up spending more. Nothing beats a good set of "Mip Thorp" allen drivers but be warned you'll spend around $15 a wrench for the 100% made in the usa quality product.
