EBAY had a 8% EBAY BUCKS promo last week and I picked up a few items that were on my wishlist.

C.S. Osborne No. 223 - Revolving Punch for 14.90 shipped and the C.S. Osborne No. K-157 Mini-Punch Set for 30.90 shipped. Both made in USA

My first Astro Pneumatic product the Model 3018 digital tire inflator for 57.91 shipped. I really like it so far, the only downside is that it is made in China.

Keep forgetting to post this. My parents went on vacation to Alaska a couple months ago and got me this. Ulu knife with moose antler handle and display stand. Made by Eagle River Knife Co. of Alaska. Razor sharp. I'm torn whether to use or display.

Use it. They are perfect pizza cutters. Also work very well for cutting up salad. I have a few from the same place. Definitely worth the trip to see the facility and listen to the stories.

But then again, Alaska in general is worth the trip for the views!

Fowler electronic brake drum gauge. Assumed it would be made in the USA but assumed wrong. Still a nice piece.

I've been curious about this style of wire stripper for a while. How are they working for you?

I like mine. As long as you use the right size hole for the wire you are cutting, it works really well.

I was jealous, Alaska is definitely on my bucket list. Also interesting to note the Eagle River Knife Co. is a mother-daughter pair.

I already have a Pizza Rocker (iirc) as well as traditional wheeled cutters. I'm a fan of the Rocker. I might be able to find a kitchen use though, as I don't really have any decent kitchen knives aside from a couple old Victorinox.

That mirror finish blade is just so pretty. What a visually appealing tool.

Got me a bi-directional scan tool!

I spent a half hour in the driveway screwing around, popping the trunk, turning the lights on, sweeping the dash. This thing is a piece of ****, super slow, crashes, but is also awesome. Now I can swap the CKP sensor and get this stupid Aurora running well again.

Also using it really made me appreciate CAT ET, and on Monday when I hear someone ***** about how slow it is I'm going to set them straight.

 

[Sam'sAutoParts]

Been looking at getting a new set of strippers. On sale and getting love on this thread, so I finally pulled the trigger today.

 

[rharman]

Always wanted a Metric Adjustable...

All of mine are auto-detect. They figure out if the fastener is metric or usa and handle the conversion automatically.

They work fantastic. It's a ripoff of the Snap On version, which I am referring to.

I was going thru new tool withdrawal, so I picked up some locking extensions!!

1/4 6" tmxkl60a

3/8 set 204fxkla

How much did you pay for the 3/8" set? I have a brand new sealed set I've been trying to sell.

What are you supposed to cut with it?

 

[Mohawk Dave]

What are you supposed to cut with it?

Originally meant for fish, whales, seals etc. Native Alaskan people tool. Works great for all kind of stuff

 

[M_George]

You use it to skin your caribou and trimming ice blocks for your igloo.

Are you serious about it being a Piece of ****! I was seriously going to pull the trigger on that model. Any other suggestions with a comparable scan tool with same or better functions for that price range?

It's on the north side of the Bangna Highway right at about km 25.6 (+/- 200meters).

I paid 180 bucks, I think retail is around 260, that's Canadian funds...

Wow! That's a nice collection of Knipex, must of cost a fortune, enjoy

Used them today and I am really happy with them. I have always used a pair of Klein crimpers, which are pretty good sized but these are smaller and more handy. Even being smaller they provide to me plenty of leverage. Also like that on the end they have teeth instead of the cutter being there, I have accidentally cut wires in two with the Klein pair while crimping.

Now I really want to try a pair. Thanks for the info!

Great! I haven't been in a few weeks. In Canada for a couple weeks now. Will snoop around here for tools a bit

Just picked this up off the bay to go in my drill/impact box for the occasional screw that needs hand turned. Seems really solid, almost no slop in the chuck...but Klein's website says it is discontinued?

 

[Cummins_Tech]

$500 off the truck.

$500 for a socket set? Are those flex head wrenches locking flex head? Look identical to Gear Wrench except Gear Wrench are locking.

That looks like a deal to me....

 

[Cummins_Tech]

Kinda what I thought too... guess I should have just ordered a gear wrench set instead and thrown it away bit by bit as I tore it up because there isn't anyone in a 100miles who distributes GW so the warranty is worthless to me, and then buy another kit, and end up spending more money than I would on the snap on kit where the truck comes to me twice a week...

Foolish foolish me...

GW ratchets **** anyways lol.

[97nismo]

I'd pay 500 for that and part out what I didn't need...like those flex ratchets

Figure that those socket sets go for a little more than 100 each on ebay

 

[zktk01]

Got these today, Wife doesn't know

 

[atikovi]

Can't reply to that as I only had mine a year, but can say once I tried the locking flex head, I haven't used my non-locking style since.

 

[Cummins_Tech]

I have no comment to their durability, just that the 120 design is **** in the ratchets. Great on the wrenches tho. I'll buy GW ratchet wrenches all day long.

[Cummins_Tech]

To this day, the SO dual 80 design is still the most popular ratchet. Only ones I'll spend money on.

Edit: besides the new SKs...
