A system for marking a set of hand tools marked according to a unified system, the set of hand tools comprising a first subset of the set of hand tools comprising a first plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the first subset having a metric size indicator thereon and a second subset of the set of hand tools comprising a second plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the second subset having a standard size indicator thereon, the system comprising:
- sequential relative size marking for each of the hand tools within the set to identify a size of each of the hand tools from smallest to largest within the set and independent of whether the hand tool has a metric size indicator thereon or a standard size indicator thereon;
- wherein the sequential relative size marking consist of at least one of letters and numbers;
- and
- a chart on a physical medium containing the relative size markings for each of the hand tools and the metric size indicator or the standard size indicator for each of the hand tools.
A system comprising:
- a set of hand tools marked according to a unified system, the set comprising:
- (a) a first subset of the set of hand tools comprising a first plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the first subset having a metric size and a metric size indicator thereon, the metric size indicator indicating the metric size;
- (b) a second subset of the set of hand tools comprising a second plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the second subset having a standard size and a standard size indicator thereon, the standard size indicator indicating the standard size;
- and
- (c) sequential relative size marking on each of the hand tools within the set to identify a size of each of the hand tools from smallest to largest within the set and independent of whether the hand tool has a metric size indicator thereon or a standard size indicator thereon;
- (d) wherein each of the sequential relative size markings is not a metric size indicator;
- (e) wherein each of the sequential relative size markings is not a standard size indicator;
- (f) wherein the sequential relative size marking consists of at least one of letters and numbers;
- and
- a chart on a physical medium containing the relative size markings for each of the hand tools and the metric size indicator or the standard size indicator for each of the hand tools.
A system comprising:
- a set of hand tools marked according to a unified system, the set comprising:
- (a) a first subset of the set of hand tools comprising a first plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the first subset having a metric size indicator thereon;
- (b) a second subset of the set of hand tools comprising a second plurality of the hand tools, each of the hand tools within the second subset having a standard size indicator thereon;
- and
- (c) sequential relative size marking one each of the hand tools within the set to identify a size of each of the hand tools from smallest to largest within the set and independent of whether the hand tool has a metric size indicator thereon or a standard size indicator thereon;
- (d) wherein the sequential relative size marking consist of at least one of letters and numbers;
- a chart on a physical medium containing the relative size markings for each of the hand tools and the metric size indicator or the standard size indicator for each of the hand tools.
