Tenex The xcelite cutters are nice I've had mine for 8 year now they cut at least 3500+ zip ties and there still nice and sharp

I paid $6 for them on Amazon and got free shipping with my Prime membership. The Knipex pliers were a "Warehouse Deals" item for $8.

Obviously it's worth it for $5, assuming that's where the biding ends, the standard Weras, which are pictures are sold at Tooltopia for about $25 for 7, they are good quality, probably a small step up from Klein. I like the ratcheting bit holder from Wera quite a bit, not as much as my SnapOn, but pretty close

From what i have heard and read wera are pretty nice drivers. For that bunch i would go as high as $20.00 loos to be some pretty decent drivers in that ms matched set.

$5 is a good price, even for a Dutchman like me lol. Just didn't want to bid $40 on something worth $2.50[emoji14]Appreciate the Tooltopia info, cheers!

I will give you $5 for that blue AT&G screwdriver if the tip is in good condition!
PM me if you get these and want to sell that one.

Got in the new TrustyCook hammers I won in the contest here. Fortunately TC was cool with letting me choose green color ones to match the ones I already had.

Here's the fam... The 3 green with labels are the "new" ones. The non labeled green is their mechanics 3 pack that I bought a couple months back. The blue one is a bossing mallet I picked up from the Hot Deals section here as a blem. They claim it is a "blem" but it looks great to me. I am positive it is nicer than what you'd find on the shelf at imports-r-us :lol_hitti

Thinking about getting one of those 12v bosch drivers you got there. Haven't decided if I want the impact or not though. Let me know what you think of the two.


I bought the combo kit on amazon for under 150, one of my best tool buys so far. Those little suckers have a ton of power and the battery's last forever. The impact driver has led's surrounding the bit which is awesome. And they are a decent amount smaller overall than the Mikita's and Milwaukee's.

Hopefully my snap on dealer can get dug out and back on the road this week so I can get some new things.
We had record setting snow fall here in south central PA.
30+ inches of snow on Saturday!

Got a great deal on these and couldn't pass them up. The needle nose make the craftsman ones I have feel like plastic.

Need to do the all 4 struts on the wife's Honda CRV and saw this MAC Tool MS456, the cost was $89.45 shipped. It was the price between one of the cheap ones and an OTC at about $165.00. Just like some of the guys here I like some of the older US made equipment.

Man those Gedore precision screwdrivers look really good!

I am trying to keep my eyes open for some good deals

Sears online and use the points system, with slickdeals helping you out for tips. I've picked up about six Knipex pliers from Sears and spend less than $50 out of pocket, closer to $40.

I was at Menard's tonight and this was on the clearance rack for $19.97. Then it rang up for $14.97 at the register. Score :rocker:



After that I stopped and picked up this 80s era Waterloo (?) box. This damn thing weighs 85 lbs empty :willy_nil

Picked this 1/2HP up today for $50 ;)

It doesn't spin long, however, after turning off. Any idea what I can do to fix?

I had to cut an old stuck parking brake cable on a Mercedes I'm stripping down to get some work done. Way back whenever, I'd be hacking away at those cables for ages to get through - with these long handle knipex job was done in 5 seconds. Tool wasn't even fazed. I'm a huge fan now haha
