The stubby flat flat is awesome. I've got the biggest one and took it to work (have big stubby ball pein at home) by far my favorite hammer in my toolbox.

Picked up the New SnapOn T400 Butane Torch Yesterday. I think it was just released @ the SO Franchisee trade show a week or so ago but my driver had 6 or 8 of them when he showed up yesterday morning so i snagged one up.

02Xterra · Sep 7, 2016

Also my pliers rack arrived today, lots more room now

New Blue Point under hood service tray off the Snappy truck today. I thought $165 wasn't too bad. Plan to use it for keeping all the stuff I use for between rounds organized at the drag strip. So far seems pretty solid.

I have wanted one of those for some time. Snappy man had a used one on the truck for sixty bucks !!!!!!! Zing !!!!!
It was well beat and missing all the rubber stuff. I got it powder coated to match my box. Replaced the rubber part that goes around the outside and I have been loving it ever since. It is WAY useful. It is way better than setting tools and fasteners on top of the engine and watching them fall.

lightning02 · Sep 7, 2016

are those legs wide enough to fit a tire in between? if so whats the biggest tire they can fit over?

I just had mine on a Jag with 17's ( ? :dunno:

)
But yeah that is the intent of the design. I have yet to have the legs not fit anything, but I don't use it a lot.

24" between the legs.

Not a big deal for my application but it also extends out to 48" tall.

Nice!! My deal is that I'm always setting down my DVM, Dzus tool, LiPo pal's and such on the dragster and having them fall off. One of my techs bought one a month or so ago and I immediately knew that it would be perfect for all that stuff at the race track. Finally broke down and got it. Think it's gonna be just the ticket.

cliftonbros89 · Sep 7, 2016

Finally picked up some things I've been meaning to get

SK 3/8 drive metric impact swivels

General digital caliper. Wasn't too sure with it being a cheaper brand. But it seems pretty nice.

Picked up from Menards. Knipex mini bolt cutters, awesome. And Vaughn mini pry bar. Got it for a few bucks.

TC dead blow for the work truck and a flat-flat stubby for the shop box. Already love it!

Univer-Co grease gun coupler. Seems to work pretty good. Made in Canada. But it is a little pricey for just a coupler. Haven't picked up the relief valve to go with it yet. For just in case.

Jarhead0408 · Sep 7, 2016

I have that Blue Point cart. I bought it for $85 used. I like it a lot. Used it about 20 minutes ago tonight.

48548 · Sep 7, 2016

My favorite grease coupler.... Works awesome.

Weren't those branded CRAFTSMAN for a short time?

That reminds me....that may be the one picture thread GJ lacks "Show us Your under hood service tray!"

there was a Craftsman under hood service tray but, it was shaped slightly different and only listed for $79.99.

Yes but discontinued. I think was the same thing. Blue Point put a little different rubber stuff on the top and sells it for way more. Go figure. :lol:

Get to try them out yet? That seems like a good deal. I was looking at a set of Steelmans but the reviews said that they were too big and the wheel wouldn't actually fit over them.

I've used them a couple times now. They work great. On everything from an '87 Benz to a '15 Benz so far.

I have both of those, and in all their drive sizes. The Protos look ****, but the 45 tooth design ***** for the ratcheting arc. Wish I'd not bought them

HCNDM · Sep 9, 2016

Chrome and finish are mediocre. Fit is reasonable.

Cheap beater extensions (made in Taiwain I think).

Happy to have a backup set in 1/4 3/8 and 1/2 that I can abuse.

bought one of these, finishing 1/4 of my basement... i don't know how i sanded drywall without one. NO dust. i literally sanded all the vertical joints on the walls and the joints on the ceiling, and when i was done i went to dinner with the wife. didn't have to clean up. 5 out of 5 stars. made by Hyde (sorry no pic)

^ what's the outside diameter on the end of the hose?

I've got a gig scheduled where that thing would come in real handy.

Sh40674 · Sep 9, 2016

not sure but it comes with an adapter or 2. i have a rigid brand shop vac... i want to say 16 gallon. works just like a screen sander and most of the screens you buy fit right on it

Jarhead0408 · Sep 9, 2016

Looks nice. The sanders with a collection bag still let out too much dust for me.

Sh40674 · Sep 9, 2016

i use a washable filter on my vacuum... a pleated style, don't use a foam or a bag or anything. was expensive for the filter (30 bucks) but should last a long time as you can wash it. does not let drywall dust through

Is the washable filter compatible with ridgid vac? Have a link or brand name of this washable filter?

KMdef9 · Sep 9, 2016

Trusty blem hammers came with no blem!

Love the skinny profile of the Armstrong. For $20 it's a fantastic ratchet.

TC threw in a flashlight too, possibly unintentionally.
