There was a Craftsman ratchet in the bathroom there... so what do you think it was used for?

That is not a raised panel ratchet.Finally found a use for their standard raised panel ratchets.
That is a long 3/8" drive full polished ratchet.

I think I am referring to a possible use as a paper towel dispenser which using a bigger diameter cardboard center roll might also use a bigger ratchet; i.e. a 3/4" ratchet.
I could be wrong.

Had a Great Uncle who went to the harbor freight experience. He did not enjoy it much however. It took place at Inchon in 1950. True story

What is the craftsman experience !, apparently i did not get the memo delivered to the rock i live under regarding this craftsman experience. Did you have to fly to China for this experience?

Craftsman was raited as the most trusted brand in America. They have a showroom that expands upon this. The Craftsman experience is basicly the Craftsman showpeice of a store. Its their main showroom. I have been there...its sweet. Anyone who apeciates a quality tool or a job well done would apreciate it...even the brand snobs.

I hope you washed your hands.
It's not a store at all, it's more of a studio.
I originally thought it would be half showroom, half demo space, but it looked to be 90% demo space. It is open to the public during set hours, but I believe they're now mostly focused on producing web-based content. They have live-streams, project videos, and cool things like the even I just came back from.
While I originally had my doubts, I think that what they did with the Craftsman Experience is more productive than just having a large showroom in that one city.
Here's what I wrote about it on ToolGuyd back when it was first coming out. But, some of my assumptions turned out to be inaccurate (see the above explanation).
You can check out some of what they do here: http://www.facebook.com/craftsman?sk=app_150642951629284
There are also YouTube videos and videos and projects on the Craftsman website.
Yep! I think they did have an "Innovation Station" also that shows off the latest and greatest.
They had a very large lawn and garden tools showroom, complete with astroturf to complete the theme.
I was extremely busy while there so I didn't have much time for photos or to ask for more details about what the individual stations are used for during public visits.
If you go back there, just don't ask for 1/2" shank router bits - that'll frustrate everyone!
lol. I went in to wash my hands before lunch, spotted a Craftsman wall cabinet, and when I went back to take photos later I spotted the working ratchet paper holder.
