Remember coin sorters? How much more complicated would it be to sort a couple dozen sockets?
The largest Great Neck socket set at AutoZone has 14 sizes, plus 3 drives, and 2 lengths.
Do larger drives have taller sockets?
That could help differentiate different drives for the same size.
It would be cool if I could work on a big project and dump all of the sockets into a sorter, then slide out the case, and put it away.
If I open my case the wrong way most of the sockets dump out and I have had the case open on accident.
I once coveted a friend's magnetic case.
How easy would it be to add magnets?
Of course, the sockets should snap in, but how would I fix it when they don't snap?
I have seen color-coded sockets, which would help sort them. ChrisFix has a video on etching, which would help if you want larger numbers.
Colors would wear off...
I still think it would be cool to see a sorting robot! I bet Mark Rober could figure it out!
