$ Park Tool Socket and Bit Set



I just received this in the mail. While I haven't used it yet, I wanted to point something out for other people - it does *not* come with a case, which tools socket sets usually do.



The way you see it - with the bits just sitting there open - is the way it is. So if you're thinking you'll throw it in your backpack or something, be aware that all the bits will fall out everywhere.



I'm not saying it's deceptive - it didn't *say* it would come with a case. But I had thought it would, so I wanted to let other people know.



P.S. In my case I was ordering this so I could change seats but set them up like my bike fitter did. At the same time, I needed to buy an electronic level. I purchased a Husky 9" Electronic Level for $40 from Home Depot, Model #THD9403 Store SKU #934631. It came with a fabric case that zippered up for the level - but what do I need a case a level for?? But - the case fits *exactly* around the Park Tool Socket and Bit set, almost like it was designed for it. With it zippered, I can throw it around and it's tight enough that the bits even stay in their place in plastic holder they came in - no rattling, no loose bits when I open it up. Just an fyi in case this might be helpful for someone doing the same thing.
