I need it for automotive use. I have a nice UK made foot/pound torque wrench that I have had for a while but I find that I need an inch one more and more. Right now I just do it by "feel" which is not a very good long-term plan. I want a high quality set that will last a long time. So US, UK, German, French. I have some Facom hand tools that I have had for a while and they have been very good. But I bought those a while ago when then dollar was even stronger against the Franc. Anyway, inch/pounds is what I need now.
