Got a couple things. My wallet is worn out

(Not my pic)

That test light is probably the best tool I've bought the last 2 years, I love it. I actually bought 3. One for my brother and 1 replacement for the one I ran over.

157 pounds, yes.

I read that on their site even before I asked here, but that just seems way to lite for that size of box. I have a late 80's 8 drawer about the same outside dimensions and over 2x the weight. Heck even the HF red cart is only ~25lbs less than that.

New to me Black&Decker bench top Workmate for $10 at the Carlisle car show. Its doesn't look like it was used at all.

Now that is cool. It also appears to be able to be bolted to the workbench. Mucho potential for a variety of projects.

Newest addition to my tool collection.
Open end wrenches, Made by Unior (Slovenia)
They may not be the prettiest and strongest wrenches out there, but I like them for their slim profile.

Is that toolbox gunmetal?

It is called "Green Mica"

It's a great saw! I got one a few years ago at my local HD. It was on clearance also for $299.00. It was also the floor model and it didn't have a blade. The manager said I could take a new blade from the selection they had. I already had enough blades so we talked about it and I walked out with it for $260.00 plus tax. I have used a few times and with a good blade it is works very well. The only drawback is it is heavy - but that can also be a positive since the weight gives it stability.

Congratulations on a great buy.

Thanks! This was missing the blade wrench and the manual. And it is massive. My harbor freight 12'' slider I can easily pick up by the handle with one hand. I had to give this one a good hug in order to move it!

Next item will be to either buy or build a good stand for it. I've been pushing my luck with the HF 12'' on a little Ryobi stand, but there is no way that it will support the Ridgid.

What's the rationale for the sizing on the last two wrenches? Why not 25-27 and 28-32?

I bought the earlier version (AC9944) of this portable stand on closeout a few years ago for $79.00. The new version is probably a little lighter but still gets good reviews -

I mounted a piece of plywood on the brackets so I could easily move from the miter saw to the Ridgid benchtop sander. The folding option and wheels make it easy to move around.

Looks like the exact same set I have got mine at HF my set came in a black case. Just used my set on my sons Mazda 6 front brakes.

Where can I get a set of those like that thin design. I only use mine in my garage so they would be fine for me.

How much is this at Harbor Freight?

Do you live in the United States? If so, where'd you buy those wrenches? I've been looking for some thin metric open-ended wrenches.

Facom makes a nice set.....

Just looked it up It is at $44.99 right now you can use 20% coupon on it to drop it even lower. They do put it on sale on ocassion they should be having another 25% coupon coming out soon too.

Thanks Buck I like that Facom set and the Grip set. On the bottom of the page I thought there was a company called V8 that had a set too. Facom If memory seres me correctly is german$.

Also If you are an inside track club member they put it on sale to the IT members also. Think thats when I got mine not sure.

 

[arjun90]

Is the inside club membership really worth it?

I have one and think that it is very worth it. Just my opinion and you will have guys say that it is not worth it. I like the fact I can get into sales early and possibly get the last of an item that might be in a tent sale or sidewalk sale. So to me that is worth it. It is your money so join if you want but it is worth checking out.

 

[arjun90]

Thanks, I was under the impression it removes the coupon limit for single purchases, haha

[dodge610]

Not sure what you mean but if you use a IT coupon you cant stack a 20% coupon on top of it. Or if you mean the free stuff coupons all the HF are cracking down on 1 free item per visit. I think it is due to the guys that come in and wanna get the free stuff but never buy anything. No such thing as a free lunch.

Yep, its only free with any purchase. In stores, it seems you can't stack a free item with a purchase which has a discount coupon applied.

Well so far I know the guys at my HF and havent had that problem yet but they might start cracking down on that also.

 

[ElectroMechTech]

Ullman telescoping magnet and Blackhawk PT-1310 pliers. Both USA.

 

[DodgeMech]

does a new locker for my box count? haha

 

[upgrading]

Looks good.
Is that a flat black ?
Is that a DeWALT on top ?

No clue really. Actually all above 20 mm are a bit mixed.

I live in Mexico, but was recently visiting my parents in Europe and got this set there. http://www.uniortools.com/

 

[Hey_Pontiac]

I'm a big Channellock lover but they dont have something like this. I have the 3 set pliers.

 

[ElectroMechTech]

I wish Channellock made those too.

 

[Dennis Leigh Henry]

Flea market sellers were scarce this weekend, but I found this beauty.. Stanley 816 Made in USA crow bar.. $2.

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

I have one of those and would love a second one! So I will say for $2 you ****!

 

[TheRobotCow]

Well this will be the last tool I'm buying from a tool truck for a while. It's my last day at work tomorrow. Cornwell precision screwdriver set.

I still want a lid but they're priced so high you may as well throw your funnel away and buy a new one.

Yeah.. I think the guy didn't intend on it being in the $2 bucket.. but that's what he sold it to me for... Sometimes I get lucky..

Cheers..
