I met a MP seller at his house for a table. His shop was loaded out with an old hardware store inventory. Looked like a Fastenal store. He also had a really nice late 60's Bronco restoration almost done. Saved his info just in case.

They work great on the rolling stools. One little push and you're on the other side of the shop real quick. Still working great almost 2 years later. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BC8C7MBD?tag=atomicindus08-20

I got one off MP a while back for cheap. It doesn't get used much but it does great on the jobs with a lot of fasteners to remove and replace. I definitely wouldn't spend eBay prices for one.

I got a used dcs377 band saw for a $90 in like new condition. Probably don't need it but I'll get no help in justifying not getting it here. My dwm120 has a permanent home in the Hercules band saw stand now that I have it cutting accurately. Not a big fan of reciprocating saws for decent cuts so...

That's the plan.

Thank you I will check in with him.

Anyone know of a source for a Walker logo replacement sticker? I would like to add the logo back after repainting.

I'm looking for some bigger DeWalt batteries since my original drill/impact batteries are getting up there in age. I found the Toolup site and the prices on the battery/tool combos are really good. I was just wondering if they're possibly too good to be true. I found references on Reddit and a...

The few times I've dealt with Snap-on have been great. Sent out some struts for a Blue Point cart, a broken Blue Point T40 Torx bit, and a 3/8 ratchet repair kit. Same experience with Proto for a lock to a top chest. Craftsman has warrantied the same screwdriver twice and pair of needlenose...

I have an old Shakespeare double line head (on the right) that I opened the holes a little to accept 105 line. I got some inexpensive twisted 105 line off Amazon that I'm sharing with the neighbor. Did the whole yard on 2 strings when it took 5 or more pairs of 95 before. We'll be handing this...

I bought a double piston hydraulic jack for the engine hoist. Works great and fast enough for my limited use (air would be overkill for me). Sold the single piston for $50 so net cost for upgrade was about $1. www.amazon.com/dp/B09TW4V89F?ref=ppx_pop_dt_b_product_details&th=1

I did grab it that was a given. With the owners help we had it completely broken down in 15 minutes. It came with a bonus Snap On CJ-951 bearing separator so it was basically free. Since I broke it down I might clean it up and repaint it.

I'm looking at picking up this Walker 93616 15 ton press. Everything is there but the jack. 15 ton jacks are cost prohibitive for a cheap SOB like myself. Would a 20 ton jack be out of line for this press or would it be better to stay with a 12 ton?

The lock shouldn't be required. I moved my 8500 lock to the LJ8900 and both worked fine. I got tired of manually locking the 8500 door and bought another lock.

I have both. The cordless gets used at least several times a week and I honestly can't remember when I used the Makita corded saw. The Makita is a great saw but between the cordless and the table saw it doesn't get much use.
