very nice tools !!!! Do you have a larger pic of the Wera VSM tips ?
The Felo´s come with a sliding magnet inside the socket ?

Per your request! Hope these illustrate the VSM tips well enough for you.

Also here is what the magnet looks like inside the 13 mm nutdriver. There is a spring mechanism that obviously withdraws the magnet back up inside.

Last order from Cripe, man I can't help myself I keep buying stuff that I can't even tell you what I will use it for because its so cheap.

Case in point this last order. Wanted an 11 and a 16mm gear wrench to finish off my set from 10-19mm and then happened to stumble onto the Napa digital 1/2" torque wrench for $110. Little while later another $400 order happens:

Big wrench is a KD 1-5/8" that was stupid cheap, the big gearwrench is 34mm, and the two medium combo wrenches are 25mm and 29mm.

A few more toys delivered, some more on their merry way :lol_hitti It's pathetic I know, but buy we keep on buying....

Body file holders, DHC2000 Oxy kit and a gas saver with pilot light, no need to put down a burning torch and it cuts the gas flow with just the pilot burning, allowing easy re-light.

Rgrds

Here's mine. LXT407 - and just submitted for the MIR free 6 1/2" Cordless circular saw. Replaces my old Dewalt 14.4 XRP screwgun. The batteries took a dump a while back and $150 for new and $115 for refurbished just didn't seem worth it, plus with this I gained Lithium Ion batteries and the rest of the tools.

I just purchased these off the MAC truck. I think I did o.k. price wise, $200 for the 9 piece Metric and the 7 piece SAE

I've had the 9pc metric set going on 3 years now, i use them daily. Comfortable, stong and color coded. Only downfall is within time, you'll cut open the nice colored shrink wrap on your commonly used ones. My 7,8,10mm dont have any color left. Thats why they make colored electrical tape :lol:

Dime, what brand is the radiator pressure tester?

its astro pneumatic im not sure who the oem is but everything works well. it was the most complete kit i could find from anybody. I used it on a few different vehicles yesterday and it works great and the vacuum style purge/fill setup is pretty cool and works well also.

Inspired by the forum, I've been upgrading my tools. I'm slowly trying to get rid of my PRC stuff, and move on to better quality tools. These are today's arrivals.

Blackhawk 3/8 and 1/4 ratchets (USA of global components)
DSC04542.jpg


Wera Kraftform Kompakt 40 (Czech Republic)
DSC04533.jpg

DSC04525.jpg



Grip-On curved jaw pliers, 7" (Spain)
DSC04516.jpg

DSC04520.jpg


Channellock Griplock pliers, 9.5" and 6.5" (USA)
DSC04515.jpg


Crescent adjustable, 8" (USA)
DSC04513.jpg


Something funny going on with the Blackhawks, though. They don't seem to have as short an arc as billed (I counted 41 clicks for the 3/8 and 45 for the 1/4, which certainly doesn't work out to the sub 5 degree arc they advertise. They also don't have the tri-wing selector that's pictured in every Blackhawk catalog. Almost seems like these are single pawl, and not the double pawl it's supposed to have. If anyone has insight, let me know. I plan to contact Stanley about it and see if I can get some answers).

I bought a Streamlight Knucklehead setup. Got the light, the piggyback charger, 12vdc power cord, 120vac power cord, extra battery, and the akaline battery adapter. It has a damn good magnet and a hook plus the head swivels and rotates. Yeah it was damn spendy but I have to admit it's great.

Here is my latest garage sale finds from today. A Porter Cable model 363 belt sander. The front knob was broke but I ordered one for about $10. Only paid $5 for the sander.
The Jorgensen clamps, 2 #3718 and 2 #3724 paid $5.
Really needed all of these finds.
Noggin is pretty happy about that,
Cheers!

I've had that makita set for a while now. LOVE it. You took off the belt hook on yours? or do they not come with them anymore?
