I just checked my 'stock' (range of tools). Between them (all) they do FIT everything ever made.
A.F. 1/4" to 2"
Metric 8mm to 60mm
BSF(!) 1/8 to 1"
Whitworth(!) 3/16 to 1"...obviously 'some' of the tools and sockets are more than...a "Week old!"

Consider it done.
It's a small thing when compared to someone who has come all the way from the Czech Republic just to visit with us simple folk. My hobby before MVs was tools. Believe me....there's plenty to spare.
Whitworth....yeah, not much room for talking about American fractional sizes when you throw that one out there, lol.

First Central European SteelSoldier meet was a great success.
The first Central European Steelsoldier Meet was a great success according all participants. Gifts were exchanged, making everybody very happy.
Mike (SCSG-G4) as he looks outside the MKT at the rally. You can see the grass in the original Zubrowska Bison Grass Vodka. At right, the US standard impact socket set. Also a little Christmas-decorated gingerbread as we make them at our visitor centers.
I am very happy I took the time to drive to Vienna to meet in person again (GA rally 2014 was the first time) as opposed to just exchange by post. The socket set will see action in the coming days and I will report on that.

I don't have pics of the new M18 Fuel impact wrench and the US impact sockets in action but boy oh boy.
When trying the sound and spin of the M18 Fuel impact wrench (on 2nd level) when I just got it, without load, it did not sounded or felt so impressive. When taking of the 25 year old rusted bolts connecting the winch to the frame, I felt the same for the the first few secs ... until I realized that the bolt was free already!
Soldier A and B spent close to wo hours getting the 12 bumper bolts free with only simple hand tools. It took me about 15 minutes for the 12 bolts from the winch, and most of that time was spent on trying to get the contra-wrench in position and solid without being smashed out of my hands by the impact wrench.
I actually went looking for other bolts I could undo so I could continue playing with the wrench. Next big thing will be taking down the dented overhead part of the dump bed from the bed so we can straighten it out.
Kenny, Mike, and Mark, thanks for helping me to get the right tools for the job.
