    Auto Repair: Do I need multiple socket wrench drive sizes?

    I am in the camp that everyone needs more than one set of every drive size. I just threw away all my plastic cases that I've been hoarding and there was 20 of them. But I've got more than that. Shallow, deep, semi deep in both SAE and Metric in all 3 drive sizes. Plus a couple sets of 12 point...

    Only 5volts at my Disconnect outdoor unit won't turn on

    Okay sorry guys I didn't get any notifications that anyone else posted in here. I wasn't getting 24v at the contactor. I was tracing the wire and it goes into my little furnace closet and it was getting dark and I was frustrated. There is a light switch in the closet. But no bulb in the...

    Only 5volts at my Disconnect outdoor unit won't turn on

    So I can push in the contact and the unit comes on and operates normally until I release the contact Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Only 5volts at my Disconnect outdoor unit won't turn on

    Sorry. You guys can call me all sorts of names now. My meter I thought was supposed to auto detect AC or DC voltage doesn't. I had to hit a button. I have 240v everywhere. Going into the contactor. But nothing coming out. So now I'm trying to see where I need to go Sent from my iPhone using...

    Only 5volts at my Disconnect outdoor unit won't turn on

    Hey everyone. I need some help. My breaker inside isn't tripped, my inside fan works and blows air. But I only have 5volts at my disconnect outside and the AC won't kick on. I've checked my filter, breaker etc... It's a non fused disconnect box. Any ideas on what I'm missing or where to look...

    You pretty much made my point right there!! You can buy junk on any of the three trucks. I also know where you're coming from with the Quality declining on Mac. There's a noticeable difference between what they're putting out now and what they used to sell. But that's true of everyone to a...

    All of Mac's hard line is made in USA as well as their boxes. They have a brand called expert that is basically like blue point, and you can get dewalt stuff on the truck. I prefer Mac to Matco because Mac still does make their own tools. All 3 companies have stuff made in Asian countries just...

    Pretty much. It's only because I don't really have a tool bill though is why I got it. And it'll only take about 3 months to pay off the small amount I owe on it. Which is good. Because in five months I'll be back to buying lots of diapers and baby stuff. Our second daughter is due in May. I...

    So I haven't been buying tools as much lately. Just because works been a little iffy and I've got pretty much all I need. I've been buying consumables and that's it. I got on the Snap-On truck a couple weeks ago to buy a set of screwdrivers for a Christmas present for my dad. Which is really...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    The sockets, ratchets, smaller wrenches and most of my basic tool set are all in my cart. My work area is so big and I'm flat rate. So I have as much stuff in my cart as I can push, organized according to how much it gets used. I can honestly go all day and only get into my main box once or...

    So I totally underestimated how much room this would have compared to my other old box. I've got everything in it now. Here are some drawer pics. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Yeah like was said above. You'll tell they're loaded but very smooth. They feel better to me when they have some weight in them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Thanks she's my world. And my only child for 5 more months. My wife is due with our second daughter in May. She's pretty stout. Lol. But shoot I don't even weigh enough to test the slides. Haha. But until I get some tools to put in that drawer. I'm thinking about throwing a pillow in there so...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Well I traded in my KRL722/791 combo today. Snap-On man gave me $1500 more for it than I bought it from him for 3 years ago. I got a 95th Anniversary KRL1163 to replace it with. I wanted a bigger roll cab with no top box. Now I thought this box would have the same storage room as my old box...
