just some little cheapo stuff off of Amazon, I am really liking Tekton for the heft and price.

yup US made and they are awesome. the finish is excellent. great price too.
You won't find them on the snap on site. These are strictly promotional made by Crown Premiums and given to dealers who are in on the promo stuff which they have to sign up for an pay for.
I am not sure if I am selling these just yet. Too fugN cool!
I have no doubt, but production has moved from france to italy on the ratchets.
I would still try them. I have MAC tools used to be made in Taiwan and now made in Italy. Also have some France ones too. As long as it works it is good

Taiwan, Harbor Freight has the same exact ones. I have the pickle forks, they are surprisingly nice.

You got a freaking STEAL on those Snap-Ring pliers!
I've got the same set, just sold by Snap0On. Think I paid $120 for them. And I thought that was a steal!

Got this stand from a member here. Lost my cheapy apparently, this will be a good replacement.
Then some Proto linesman pliers. As if I need more, but for $8 hard to pass up.
Where'd you get the Proto linesman pliers??
Ya i ask to be sure on the price bc i was amazed, when the lady told me yes i bought them and got outa there b4 they changed there mind lol.
There Free from your Snap on guy...If you want want I will get you one...I have three that I use for ash trays in the shop....they also have the matching clock with temp and humd. on it....snap on always comes up with some give away everymonth for hmmm..let me think..the last 30 years that I know of..
Snap-On makes their own snap ring pliers, and they're forged instead of stamped like the Proto (stride rebrands).

Got this Craftsman but took it back. It loooked nice, but I'll try not to support Sears efforts to sacrifice quality for money. Now I just hope somebody answers my WTB ad here.
I have that snap on ratchet at work. I don't like it much. it doesn't lock or have ball detents like the craftsman. its all over the place.

To a lot of people on GJ, it's the best ratchet in existence. I bought it from
Recommendations here. It's handy sometimes, but if I don't need the flex, I'll probably just grab a fixed head.
They are not free around here. If you buy a lot you do get a break once in awhile and occasionally you can get a freeby but here not on the promo stuff. 5 drivers here only 2 are in the promo stuff.
If you can get them free start handing them out then. I am sure many will want one as it is the new gimmick of the week!

Type in 10G651. I think they're out though. Unless they only pull regional. I ordered two and got one. Placed another order today to try and they called and said they were out. The alternate is the same pliers though which is weird. Same mfg # and UNSPSC #

I found this a few years ago in a thrift shop for $12. 1959/60 Milwaukee circular saw. It appears to be new old stock, except for saw dust and the used blades that came with it. It also has all the manuals, flyers, and a catalog. I've used it a few times, and it runs like a new saw. It weighs 16 pounds and cost $90 originally.

Just got an IR 2135qtimax, and a 118maxk in the mail today. Waiting on a 2015 3/8 Hammerhead and a 2115qtimax.
Also got the Craftsman 28 piece specialty wrench set (USA). I only bought these for the deep offsets, but I guess i will keep the rest (SAE/Metric Flare nut, Tappet, Half-moon). Thanks to Pipster, I wouldn't have even looked for this set.
Not pictured, as they are at work, are Punches/Chisels. I was going to see if there were any USA Craftsman left, but all the Sears around me had only China sets available.
?SHLF80A? Don't remember the actual part number. It's the Quick-Release version of this ratchet. For 99$, I couldn't pass it up.
In the second picture, can anyone tell me what the hell this is? The little booklet says it's a swivel adapter. But it doesn't screw out or anything. So how do I put a Milton fitting in it? I'm stumped

I didn't try to pry on it yet. The little blow-out parts list said it was a swivel adapter. The 2135 didn't have one, but the air hammer does?
Either way, I guess I'll try to pop it out.
