    lawson vs fastenal

    Our fastenal salesman is a new colledge kid every 3 months. I have a better bolt bin selection than the closest store. I go up to 2" they only go to 1 1/2. **** asses

    Test Light / Circuit Tester Recommendation needed.

    I got a power probe, and it's very nice. It can do alot, sometimes too much. Otc makes a nice test light. It goes up to 36 volt which is nice if you work on military or caterpillar equipment. Both are 24 volt and will eat a 12 volt model

    posi lok 104 for 66.00 at sears

    The sears link is it but it's showing 99.00 online. It was cheaper in tuscaloosa. I don't know if this was just one store or nation wide. It had a red tag on it

    posi lok 104 for 66.00 at sears

    I just bought a posi lok 104 which is a 5 ton puller at sears in tuscaloosa for $66. That's almost half off what amazon has it listed for. It's made in the USA too. I didn't need it right now but for that price I jumped on it

    Is this the ultimate portable toolbox?

    The pelican 0450 tool chest. It seems awsome. If I'm not mistaken it's the same one the military uses that's filled with sk tools. Only problems it's 500 dollars and up. If anybody knows how to attach a pic of it please do I can't get it to work

    milwaukee fuel nail gun

    Why hasn't milwaukee came out with an framing nailer. They have every other tool imaginable. Even ryobi has a finish and a framing nailer. What's up with that

    KNIPEX crimping pliers

    They look promising. I got a set of ratcheting wire crimping pliars, they have interchange jaws. I use them with a 3m brand heat shrink terminal. Take a mini torch or heat gun and shrink the terminal after crimping it. Never had one loose connection. Takes a little longer but worth the effort
