Couple of harbor freight pickups on my way home from work. Right angle air drill for an exhaust manifold job I have coming up, and a pair of the new soft jaw pliers.

Picked up my stool from Menards today
Also had two welders show up this week. Nothing too exciting, but it’s fun trying different machines anyways.

Tell us how those beams feel. The part you wrap your fingers around when you're pulling on it.
Good deal and nice wrenches. Blatt"s bargains is selling those smallish full polish blackhawk sets on ebay for $50 with free shipping.New to me ... $50 FB MP buy.
The 1/2” dual 80 on the right came off FB marketplace for $40
The TX72 was a trade from a friend for a couple of craftsman 1/4” ratchets he wanted of mine
The FHLFD80 was a eBay grab for under $120 new, I did swap the green handle for a larger black screwdriver handle tho
The plain 739 was a eBay haggle I ended up paying like $10 for “not working” and SO sent me a repair kit for and it’s good as new ( the swivel head I’ve had since it was new in 08, also got a kit to freshen it up too )
Lastly the FLF80 was snagged cheap on eBay for like $70 and the FCF72 was new for about $90, I drilled out and pressed the green handle on it making a killer little 3/8 flex head.

For being under $20 it's pretty well built.
Picked up the Lisle Quad Spreader 29100, a couple Klein 12" cable benders, and a set of performance tool brass roll pin punch set.
What I'm really happy about is the Wera micro ESD big pack of precision screwdrivers. Picked it up locally for $119 from Amazon in Saudi. Very happy with the fit and finish!

EverRatchet Ratcheting Keychain Multitool
EverRatchet's dynamic ratcheting beam holds the bit in place while turning but flexes to allow the tool to rotate back to its starting position. To tighten a screw, put the bit into the ratchet and turn it back and forth like a normal ratchet. To loosen a screw, just flip the tool over and...

No idea if their prices are "good", but I got my King Tony items through these folks. I am about an hour from one of their stores, but they do online also.

A used Cman 2 drawer tool box for $10 plus tax and buyers premium.
Edit: I just went to pick it up. It's rougher than I thought... I guess it'll be a project box

Thanks Pines. They both came from neighbors, one retired boiler plant operator and the other is doing time for something illegal.

New Milwaukee 1/4 stubby next to Matco to show size.
Contemplating getting the 3/8 and swapping the guts into it.

I’ve had these 2 forever. Tired of the tiny wheels getting caught on every little speck of debris. I’ve tipped over multiple times. And they’re too low. Sold them both together for $40 and grabbed the new one for $90. Not bad.

These were on offer two packs for £20 . It might help my creaky joints by keeping the cold and damp from the concrete off me when under cars
So I picked up this 1/4” TM739 on the cheap, well I found a F749 too (thanks to a family member). I have a thing about having sets of ratchets 
. The F749 is nice other than one spot in the chrome on the handle is buggered up. Took the head out and inspected and lubed it, it’s barely been used.
The neat part, they are both 89 date coded. Now I need a 1/2” round head too….. may have to grab a S872 if I can find a deal on one.

Bought this 40 some years ago for a certain job, may have been a Cat fork lift parking brake ??? It spread straight away.
Put it in the box and found it a few weeks ago, got in touch with SO and a month later replacement turned up.
See pics. That's lifetime warranty.

Now you've done it! How the heck are we supposed to read that? You're measuring an imperial/SAE/standard/whatever people want to call it wrench with a metric dial caliper! That's just wrong! And the calipers don't even have very clear markings either.See pics.....
J/K of course (looks like it spread to 6.73mm?)

Why haven't I known about this thread earlier
Found this old Mac tool box for $20 on marketplace, seller was a sweet old lady said the drawers were stuck. She didn't realize it was the mechanism for the top that releases the drawers but still wouldn't take any more $$$$. She was excited to have the 3' of counter space available haha.
Also found these guys a neighbor was giving away. One is broken but the other works great. These things bring back memories of working on the Big Dig doing the architectural concrete walls. So nice.
