Damn near cried when I read this.

 

[Caparris]

Not a single problem with the screen. I'm coming up on 3 years of use.

The picks with the metal handle are just some craftsman with the grip slid off. The red scribe is hf and the metal colored scribe is matco.

Where did you get yours? I love the wireless idea.. do they have any sort of wireless to an iPhone/ipad type feature as well? I saw where Fluke had something like that now, looks pretty cool

 

[Caparris]

I love free stuff!

Nice. I'm thinking of picking up some M18 tools soon. Let us know how you like it

A vintage screwdrivers balance I found in a hardware store.

A Pair of Stanley # 2 ...

FUnny, i picked up some of those at a garage sale that looked almost brand new!

 

[Jarhead0408]

Was in Harbor Freight last night and picked up this 56" top box display for $70 out the door. it has a few scratches and needs new locks. Guess I'll have to buy the bottom box now.

Damn dude, that's **** of the Year Award eligible right there!

 

[Luis Arturo]

That's some faded Stanley yellow packaging, that must have been on the rack for a very long time.

I really like vintage tools and I can whenever I walk sometimes small hardware stores where you can find these individuals with discolored packaging to show them here.

Cool find. Tool rescue. I hope they were marked down though.

You should do a write up on the Blackhawk ratchet. It seems like you have a bunch of quality ratchets to compare it to.

Brought a new car jack not a bad buy a thought

£100

The mobile app is really nice. Agilent/ Keysight has been refining the app for a few years now so it is pretty much bug free. Although I much prefer having the wireless display. Keeps my phone in my pocket rather than getting subjected to the mechanics goop and grime. The handheld display is also good for around 330 feet, which could be really handy if you ever end up in need of being a long ways away before flipping the power button lol.

Great tool tno

Yeah I'm doing some research on them now.. Good to see someone is trying to be innovative with dmm's. I'm sure I'll end up with one sooner or later

4-7/8" 8 point socket. That's a 2-9/16" 6 point for reference.

 

[Ruger_556]

Use one of those all the time ^^^

 

[JBradley500]

What applications, Ruger?

 

[damienga15de]

My guess is immersion heaters.

Axle nuts on trailers and class 8 trucks.

Got my two 12pc. Gearwrench Driver sets from Bargain Outfitters. Also tracked down two more of the 56pc. sets as well. Already have one 56pc. and a Kobalt set (Kobalt I may sell). I think I'm good on ratcheting drivers for a while, haha.

I snagged a one of the 12 piece sets for $15 a while back. Comes in real handy.

 

[Ruger_556]

1/2" drive hex sockets



10" and 24" breaker bars and also a long handle 3/8 ratchet





Some fab tools

 

[upgrading]

Cool Proto stuff.

 

[traumadoc2b]

Outfitting an additional roller. Some duplicates of stuff I already have, some not.

Channellock.

I really like the way you have your Channellock's laid out in the tool chest drawer. Will try that.

 

[k-os]

Picked up this Rockford VMC1000 tabletop CNC mill. Only cost me $50 from the local High School. Probably won't start looking into firing it up until I close on the new house and move it. Apparently the control software is really old so I'll be looking into updating it to something newer I hope.

 

[aarondost08]

Cleco clamps!

And a deburring tool

Woa, never seen those blue "professional" ones before. Is there any functional difference between that ratcheting handle and the red one in the 56pc kit?

 

[Bigblue&Goldie]

I picked up the Proto 24in breaker bar this week as well. I originally thought I was going to go with a truck brand breaker, but at $36 this bar is one hell of a deal! The chrome is excellent and the knurling is perfect; much better than on my SK ratchets. As much as I like Snappy ratchets, I couldn't justify their breaker bar prices.

 

[NicksRodz]

A little something from the local HF.

They are exactly the same. Tooth count and feel are identical. Only difference is they are labeled "GearDriver" as opposed to "GearWrench". Picked them up as a compliment to the 56pc set as it has more/different shafts and the stubby driver.

[neonlazer]

New wrench rolls! For those who don't know...many Matco wrenches were made by Armstrong so just had to call them to find out which roll I needed!

Can you post a picture up of all the drivers together?

I've got the fluke meter with detachable screen, great for what I use it for, but you are only going 30-40 feet max with it before losing connection.

The agilent/Keysight meter with remote display is going to cost more as well. 460 to 500 for the meter and around 250 to set up yourself with a display. The meter cost is if you go with the model i have. The remote screen can sync up to 4 meters and will display simultaneous readings. Pretty slick if you have a lot to measure and pockets deep enough to buy 4 meters lol

The rest of the Zyklop system comes in tomorrow.

[Hafen_Kafer]

Hex wrench holder. McMasterCarr editon. From the Truck Equivalent thread.

 

[Jarhead0408]
