Hi,
Ok, so here's the dilly-o. Afaik, the sockets, wrenches and screwdrivers don't matter, cuz regardless of brand name, most are usually strong enough (how the hell are you supposed to break a socket anywho?)..

I guess THE MOST important tool in this set would be the ratchet, and I would be better off buying a Craftsman ratchet, and save my $ and get the Canadian Tire socket/screwdriver/wrench set, rather then the entire Craftsman socket/wrench/screwdriver/ratchet set.

I guess I will buy the Canadian Tire set first, afterall, this will be my first time with a toolkit (sad huh?), and if the ratchet breaks, I will know better next time.

Bye!
