Since my family has destroyed/lost a lot of my hand tools over the years, I've decided I'm starting fresh. I'm keeping my torque wrench, and a few other goodies, but for the most part, I'm donating most of my tools. I'm wondering if you guys have any advice on buying a toolset. I'm only 23 and will be most likely apartment hopping for the next decade of my life, so size does matter. You also won't see me doing major repairs either because of the apartment situation. I am looking at craftsmen because of the quality and warranty, but I just don't know how to balance getting what I need vs overspending on too much.
Basically, I want something that is complete enough that I don't have to run to the parts store and buy loose singles and repeat the process I had again, but also don't want to have a 500 piece toolset in a 500 sq ft apartment when I'm just changing alternators/slave cylinders.
Any suggestions?
