    Costco Kirkland tool box

    I did. They told me they don't normally do more than thirty days, but I let them know my box was clean and still had the stickers on it (not that it matters). I verbally contemplated returning it but stated that would be a hassle for everyone and then the manager offered me either cash or store...

    Costco Kirkland tool box

    I really like this box. I bought it seven months ago when it was on sale for 499, and after doing some homework I decided it fit my needs the best for my work box as I have metal dust all throughout my bay daily, and it blends in real nice. I went into Costco today to pick up a rotisserie...

    Trusty-Cook, Black Friday Meets Cyber Monday Discounts

    I have Snapp's 24 and 32 and find myself, and other guys in the shop using the 32 most often. I am currently debating picking up a TC 43, but I don't know how often I will need it, and am wondering if a model 7 would be a better purchase for now. Question for hammersmadeinUSA, does the 10%...

    Mechanix Gloves: BF sale

    I'm not much help as I usually wear Tillman 1414 leather drivers drivers gloves, MaxiFlex® Endurance™ Flat-Dip Micro-Foam Nitrile Coated Seamless Knit Gloves, or disposable latex. If I were to pick up a pair I would definitely like to try their m-pact as I have a coworker who loves them, but I...

    (Seeking) Made in US or Germany Wire Welding Pliers

    Monte those pliers look like something else! Can you give me a make and model? Thanks BD1. Welpers brand is manufactured in Japan, which I'm not particularly opposed to, but I find doing research and finding the best tool to fit my needs results in never having to buy twice.

    (Seeking) Made in US or Germany Wire Welding Pliers

    Woah, I didn'the know or expect channelocks to still be us made. I may well go that route though I wish knipex or klien made some. Some comfort grips would be great for use with thick fcaw gloves.

    (Seeking) Made in US or Germany Wire Welding Pliers

    All the ones I have found thus far are made in Asia and rebrand. Right now I am leaning towards the classic welpers, but are there any others that you guys could point me towards?

    (Seeking) Advice on large wrench set

    Thanks guys! There's a proto set on cl I found that runs from 1" to 1 7/8ths for 225. I may go that route and pick up some Pittsburghs to fill in the gaps for now. I really appreciate the advice.

    (Seeking) Advice on large wrench set

    I have a set of Cat wrenches that goes up to 1 1/2" but now I am looking to up it to 2". Cat tools are high and I picked them up used, and can't drop a grand+ to fill out the set. I see many sets that start at 1 1/4 but don't really need the duplicates. Are any of the eBay setsin the sub 300...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Drives, thanks for the welcome. The base started at this shop long before me, and unfortunately does not swivel. It is made out of two pieces of channel welded to plate. As it is outdoors these days I tacked the nuts for theft protection. I have another Wilton bullet in my bay, but it is...
