Probably just going to buy a 3 ton harbor freight. Will only be used a few times a year. Currently have a big steel craftsman. Would like to free up floor space and get something I can put on a gorilla rack shelf instead of stepping over the jack constantly even though it's rarely used... Any...

If the car is always dead at work could she have a cheap jumper plugged in at work? Maybe pass the hat at work and buy a charger to leave there for everybody to use. Or cables...

I bought it brand new. Just don't really use it much. The warranty is 2 years and I am trying to track down when I bought it to see if I am in that window, but I don't think I am. It looks brand new, and I don't think it has an hour of actual use on it.

Yeah it's the 6 inch version of what you saw. They do have it at Northern. Just annoying because I felt like I went out of my way to actually buy something decent. It does get going if I get it spinning. Can't spin and then start, have to start it and spin it a few times. I am going to search...

Common fixes for near new, broken bench grinder Bought a new Jet JB6A bench grinder. It is out of warranty and it might have 1 hour of actual use on it. Now when I turn it on it just hums. I can spin the wheels by hand when it is off, they spin freely. Any really common things that can go on...

Does it shut off an outlet somewhere in the bedroom?

It isn't that hard to do yourself. Lowe's and Home Depot have the blowers. Sometimes you rent, sometimes they are free if you buy enough insulation. Home Depot sells a paper cover all with a hood for $8. That, a mask and eye protection and it isn't that bad of a job. Erampu, shouldn't it be...

Are the more budget line wiltons made in america, and decent quality?

I'm pushing 40 so I guess I'm not included in the demo, but I can't go to garage sales. Most of my weekends are busy, and I'm not going to waste my time going to some sale if I don't know for a fact what I want is there. I've been trying to watch craigslist for tool and shop stuff I want, and...

Those are nice sets to have even if you upgrade down the road. Work great to grab and throw in the car to fix something away from home.

Re: Armstrong MAXX (88 tooth) ratchets - $32.16 (1/4") $41.01 (3/8") @ Amazon If you're getting free shipping it's decent. But it really isn't much different than Epstein's. http://store.harryepstein.com/cp/Ratchets/10-992.html http://store.harryepstein.com/cp/Ratchets/11-992.html...

Having just received the knipex-made craftsman set...I don't want tongue and groove anymore. Decent deal though.
