read closer, it says $399 you save $141

I love homemade tools. Those look great, slappers can be quite expensive keep up the good work!

I dont have an air ratchet yet, but I can imagine they would be nice. After several hours of wrenching my hands and forearms start to cramp. I could see it saving time and hassle especially in cramped spaces. I do alot without one, and dont neccessarily need it but it is on my want list.

I bought these. sockets are of good quality, ratchet feels a little cheap but I broke a few bolts with it removing an old rusted spare tire carrier. Id buy it again.

after buying a HF bottom box and then looking at the Husky boxes I am very glad I got the HF. HF is larger, much deeper, and much better built. No comparison IMO.

:drool:nice compressor

colorado has a make my day law, but they have to be breaking into your house. Some 80 year old man had his trailer stolen by some illegals, he shot em both (one dead) while they were driving off with it. They gave him 3 years unsupervised probation. Im building up my tool arsenal slowly, most...

I looked this box over very closely and compared the two. I must have been in the store for an hour or so, they were starting to look at me like I was going to rob the place, lol. It has a nice gloss finish but it scratches easy, seems to be on par as far as quality goes with the 13 drawer boxes...

found this compressor on clist. how hard would it be to convert to a 1 phase? Just replace the electric motor and wiring? Is it a deal or not? Seems like a badass compressor. http://denver.craigslist.org/tls/2096429655.html

bought their tube notcher-FAIL, rod bent and stripped threads first time I used it. also got a balljoint press-FAIL, bent first time I used it removing a balljoint from a ranger

Yeah, It was pretty sketchy and i wouldn't have done it that way if I didn't have to, but its unloaded and I didn't drop it and damage it:lol_hitti I unpacked it today, I'll have to move some things around and find the right fit in my dinky 10x22 garage. I went from this packed completely full...

mmmm....sierra nevada pale ale.

Well I wandered around HF for about an hour today debating. I saw the new what is it 26" box they have on sale for $349(top and bottom box). Its the one with a gloss red coating. Pretty nice box, and seems solid. I went back and forth between it and the 41" box, checking out drawers, casters...

Yeah I searched and didnt come up with much but a few listings for them on expired auctions. I called the guy this a.m. someone already bought it. Oh well, on with the hunt. Thanks for all of the information and opinions, I sure do love this site!

been shopping around, I found this 30 ton continental shop press advertised here. It doesnt look complete but I was curious if its worth my time or effort. http://fortcollins.craigslist.org/tls/2089845422.html Im trying to get 20 ton or better unit that might be stronger than the HF models.
