Hex Wrench T-Handle Set

[hunthikecamp]

Looking for recs on any sets that folks have used and they like. I'm getting more into tuning and tweaking at home in the garage and i have a folding set right now that works in the field/at the range but isn't the nicest for at home stuff. (and doesn't have 7/32 for my poundage adjustment...)

Looking through the manual on my bow to pick out the sizes used i've got 3/32", 5/32", 7/32" and 7/64" that are explicitly called out. (Bowtech SS34). I've also used the 5/64" on my sight pins (but will likely upgrade my sight this year).

Looking around and I'm mostly finding the archery specific ones (makes sense) like this one from OMP have these ranges and sizes covered but doing a Harbor Freight or Lowes set might miss some sizes. Curious if anyone has found anything cheaper that works or if i should just bite the bullet and pay the 'archery specific' premium?

Oct Mtn makes a ratcheting set that isn't terribly expensive. Don't over think it, just buy one that covers the majority of what you need. You could probably find similar to the linked below one for less.

The issue with T-handles is that a LOT of the screws do not allow you to use them due to clearance. I have this set from Harbor Freight and it does everything I need but you also need a regular set. Stubby preferably.

I’d say pick up a Fix It Sticks kit, I have one that I use for pretty much everything from assembling firearms, to mounting scopes to assembling my son’s crib. Is it expensive, yes, will it do everything you want it to while still remaining small enough to transport with you where ever it is needed? Also yes.

Pine Ridge set isn’t a T handle but they work great. Never had an issue with stripping screws with them. They’re also long enough to get into tighter spaces.
