Have had a set of the og(pre mip reproduction) Thorp's for 11 years still good as new. Also have a set of the Mip/Thorp's, seems to be just as good. Also the Losi nut drivers are top notch

Nothing against any of the manufacturers on here, but I always go with Bhondus for hex drivers.. I use mine every day all day long at work, and have yet to have a problem out of them..

Check out Bondhus drivers. They're higher quality than r/c specific tools and anybody I ever talked to liked them. They can be hard to find at a local store, however.

Maybe they broke because most screws seem to be that size...

Buy Sears Craftsman. Lifetime warranty on hand tools, good tools, good prices. Can't go wrong
