5mm hex for drill?


+1 on using power/air tools to put stuff together (and take apart). Driving lag bolts into a deck, or taking off lug nuts is one thing - but I use hand tools for almost everything I do on cars and motorcycles. It takes longer, but you can feel what the bolt and parts are doing.

As for hex drives - get sets of both straight cut, and ball end. The ball ends are great if you need to work at a little bit of an angle, the straights get the best contact patch on the heads.
