For anyone else who wanted to pick one up, use the zip code 43302.

I think they have figured out the discrepancy - that zip came up as invalid on their site.

Picked up some Nicholson files from Lowes.

I got the last two 8" USA made files from my Lowes.

Hi...I'm a new member

Hi guys, I'm a new member in this forum. After read a lot of yours comments, I decided to add some foreign tools to my personal collection. I have checked different comments about screwdrivers, and I decided to try this Felo Ergonic screwdrivers. I have just ordered one Phillips to see how it is. I'm going to take it to work and after a few days probable I will decide to order the complete set, or maybe try others, like Wera or Wiha.

 

[Bjkearns]

For my birthday I sent the parentals that I wanted the Gearwrench 84tooth 3pc set
They seem really nice

 

[TheMonge23]

Special thanks to GJ Member diggerrick for the zip code that had it listed at 3.99. After a little persuading, my Lowes decided to price match "just this one time." Probably because they thought I was ripping them off or something.

For anyone else who wanted to pick one up, use the zip code 43302.

That's a really nice sledge, especially for that price. I've had one for a couple years now. Although, I guess it could be hard to mess up a hammer.

 

[rickhigginshtbr]

Grabbed two of the Nicholson plastic file handles myself... have a dozen or three files, but only like 3 handles, lol.

 

[ianguilly]

[Travisnd]

[Travisnd]

[Red_Bull]

got some new things over the last month or so
metric and standard thread checkers...these are awesome


didnt need these but i wanted them lol




i got these from napa when they were on sale...i now have metric/standard in flex and straight head

and i got this

to match this which ive had for awhile

 

[csmitty]

Damn hot deals thread. Finally got to me. Might go back for mini bolt cutters.

 

[jakemac]

Red Bull -
I got those same thread checkers a few months ago off ebay. They're a little pricey ($35ea when I bought them IIR), but worth the expense not to have to fumble with a handful of misc. nuts/bolts and guess what the size is. I keep mine hanging near my nut/bolt bins so I don't have to hunt for them when needed. Now all I have to do is sort the bins, they're a mess.

 

[Red_Bull]

jakemac i bought them to finally sort out my massive collection of random nuts and bolts but ive only used them a couple times...still got that pile of bolts

 

[ChunkyLover53]

I finally received my set of Proto wrenches. I have never had a set of what I consider "quality" wrenches, and this is my first Proto tool ever. They are metric anti slip design from 7mm - 22mm and a 24mm. I hope I like them.

 

[Gotmayhem]

Awesome looking wrenches. I haven't had the pleasure of seeing/using one of those yet.

 

[Heavy Metal Doctor]

Got a box with some very interesting old screwdrivers from Chipmunk yesterday.
Thanks again!!
Also got my free set of hex keys from Carbide Processors. Thanks to Stuey/ToolGuyD!

 

[csmitty]

Made a local lowes tour. The knipex electricians pliers for $20 was hard to pass up but found these 7"s for $14. Also found this 4lb for $3.99.

 

[rickhigginshtbr]

*snip*

Nice screwdrivers but what can you tell about that hammer?

 

[jeffmoss26]

The hammer has several flathead screwdrivers inside of it.

 

[havinnoj]

Picked up a new Snap On 236efset master set for less than half price

 

[Chadwilliam1]

lol I watched a YouTube video about that same set the other night.
edit: here it is, it made me lol.

 

[krc328ic]

I have one, or should say HAD one, just like it and mine too had the screwdrivers in it. I just went looking for it and it is not in the tool box for some reason. The search is on to recover it! It is a really cool little hammer!

 

[f1blue]

Just picked up four US Tool model 500 12" pedestal grinders and a Cincinatti 10" from an industrial auction. They were supposed to have been running when removed from service but they have been sitting outside for the past 8 months. Currently changing them over to 240v 3 phase and have a phase converter ordered to check them out. One looks like its going to be parts only but the rest look pretty good...we will see. If anyone is working on one of these and need some parts, let me know..
