In photo #26, there appears to be some tape on your sockets. Is this for quick identification or is there some trick you are doing (like using the tape to help keep the bolts in the sockets or something)?

I used electrical tape to identify my metric vs. SAE tools. I have a complete set of both and it helps in the long run. But after a while the tape does peal off so I'm no longer following that procedure. I'm also not using the SAE as much so I find it's no longer necessary.
