Picks off the truck



Needed an inexpensive 1/4" set for my tool cart at the other shop. Taiwan Williams.


They seem OK. Nothing special.

Misplaced my smaller Blackhawk snap ring pliers. Cheaped out on amazon and bought the Tektons.


Am unimpressed. but will work with them a while. Unfortunately they wouldn't fit the first retainer I came across since there is a big ol burr on the end of the tips that I will have to file off

I LOVE this. I have been keeping my eye out for an offset vise for a decade now and have never seen one for sale.

New 13" planer/molder from jet. Replaces my old 12.5" dewalt. Need to pick up some molding knives and wire it to 220.

Wrenches were an amazon arrival 5/16-7/8 for 63.00 to my door. Oddly the 5/8 is not a wrightgrip style but had the right part number. Can't beat the price though.

I now have a full day of using the Williams set to assemble a 750cc Fiat Abarth motor. I like it.

The universal joint is really bulky compared to my snap on 1/4" one.

For $33 shipped I am pleased.

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 wish I could help but.... As popular as they are, it would be nice if there was a thread for rebuilding one. Pics and all.
Ive been looking for one for a while now and there pretty hard to find.

Dang, the pics didn't come when I did the quote, This is about the block grinder.

New snap on 1/4 long ratchet. 198fe0497eb28b6246175d6adf99d33b.jpg

1/4 my ***!!!
Unless snap on came out with something new. I'm trying to compare it to the other sizes of things on ur bench and it's hard.

Looks like a 1/2" to me but I do see a "f72" which means some type of 1/4"
Interesting. Wondering what someone would need that large of a 1/4 ratchet for

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.

Looks like they still make a version of that now.

I think it's a safe bet to say it's produced overseas though. Glad you got a U.S. made model.

Maybe a 9 inch breaker with a ratchet head on it?

It says *something*LF72 on the handle. The depth perception of that picture is crazy.

The TLL72 is not a flex head and has been out a few years.

Its TLLF72 and new for February. They changed the screw location for strength so people cant blow the guts out of it as easily same as they did on the 1/2" models. Its close to 11" I believe so you'll still just twist the anvil off if you crank on it.

Nice! That's the 9-way right? I just bought that set in November of last year. Pretty nice piece of kit in my opinion.
