Got one. :) You know.... i like this thread anyways. More suggestions of nice things in the $40 range? Could go on christmas list or something. :)

I've got nice NOS KD snap ring pliers similar to that that i picked up from a hole in the wall hardware store a few months back, but good thought! These: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B002XMYD0Q/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I figured something out. :)

Oh... well.... ****. I guess i'll just have to justify this as wanting some swanky handles or something. :spit:

Alright screw it, ordered the Craftsman Pro pry bar set and this for $77 shipped after tax. http://www.sears.com/shc/s/p_10153_12605_00948292000P Not bad. :) Thanks for letting me ramble.

Are the Craftsman Pro prybars just rebadged Mayhew Dominators? http://www.sears.com/craftsman-professional-3-piece-curved-blade-pry-bar/p-00943288000P?prdNo=1&blockNo=1&blockType=G1 I don't find the price terribly exciting, but for $36 shipped, it doesn't seem too bad.

Like title says.... I've been looking on the Sears site for the last hour, can't find anything that REALLY interests me. The closest thing i've found was a set of 6 Craftsman Professional vice grips for $50, but i'm not sure i want them bad enough to pay $41 for them. Seems like a dumb thing...

YAY!!!!! :rocker: And i have an order for some hardware coming in to the store for me today, too! Guess i'm picking one up!

It also seems to suspiciously be missing pushrods as well. And the motor isn't made in America AHHHHHH!!!!!!! :spit: It's an SCCA Solo SMF-class car that i'm trying to wrap up. Big power isn't the name of the game here. (Though the final iteration of this little 2.5 litre motor should...

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Mocked up my fuel system.

I built the vast majority of this car using a bunch of Carlyle tools. (The rest mostly Gearwrench.) Good enough for me!

I'm still using the hell out of all of it without a single failure to date. Just been busy working at my day job and then using the hell out of my tools in the evenings. Annnnddd.... i needed a break from the COO arguments to clear my head.

Re: what did you do in your garage today? Worked on a thing. Sandblasted a bunch of stuff. (And painted, but didn't take pics of finished products, oops.)

Weird mix of brands there. Better than Craftsman or Husky. Probably at least 90% of the quality of SnapOn. At maybe 10% the price.

I'm not re-upping. The "special members only" discounts are always found online anyways, and the only good coupons are in magazines. I'm probably only buying boxes from there in the future anyways, and the good coupons are in magazines.

You're right. At least we have Channellock who outsources their ****** screwdrivers. :D
