Got mine at Sears. From what I have heard these are the best. Make sure you study the tips before purchasing for a nice tight fit. Some fit flush while others will show gaps and even a slight gap can change the ability to tweak....like I know anything...

GREAT thing is, that once you break 'em - you should at least once - you can take 'em back and get another pair!!! And another, and another, and another. Can't beat a LIFETIME GUARANTEE!!!!

I ordred 2 sets of them and they are pricey, but when factored in with the amount of money I have put into this hobby they are a deal if they work.
So give me a few weeks and I will be known as the TWEAK MASTER to all

Default Forgot to mention

I only bought model # 46.052 sofar, and they work beautifully, model # 46.512 looks to be extremly strong, I bust atleast 1 pair a week of the sears and home depot kind, thats why I put that model # down, I will buy a pair of those also.
