    Local, independently owned old-timey tool stores

    For my fellow South Floridians: All American Tool Company 241 SW 31st St, Fort Lauderdale, FL 33315 They have all kinds of stuff in a small warehouse you can walk around, tools like SK, Gearwrench, VIM, Lisle, and more. Picked up a couple of Vampliers last time i was there, same price as Amazon.

    Gearwrench Warranty, does it exist??

    What a coincidence, I was moving my sockets to a new set of socket rails this past weekend, and I noticed my 13mm deep Gearwrench is also cracked. I don't remember how it happened, last thing I can think I used is on was a Corolla oil drain bolt with a HF ratchet. Hopefully I can get it...

    Yeah I noticed both of those. It looks like it's only brazed on the sides, the top and bottom aren't so I'm not sure if or where it was cracked. It was very cheap so I'm not too worried, and I'll keep using it but probably not as hard as the previous owner Sent from my BND-L34 using Tapatalk

    Hey guys, does anybody have info on this vise? It's a Sawyer Tool Co. Oswego 13. I found a couple others searching around online but no number 13. I took pictures of all the markings except the one on the inside which is hard to see but it says 1823. It came with cool square head hardware...

    https://offerup.co/V8NJQwHuFO Here's the link to the C3. I know $250 is a steal, but just outta my budget at the moment (in college). Hopefully one of you guys can grab it! Sent from my SM-G930P using Tapatalk

    Thanks guys, this thing is quite the beast. They're asking $250 for it. Edit: messaged the seller and they are firm on price. Bit too high for me plus I don't really have the space for that monster!

    Yes that is true, just trying to see if anybody could from those pics from the seller's post.

    Are you guys able to estimate the weight and jaw size of this Wilton? It's for sale by me but has no information other than it's a Wilton.

    Found tools on the road

    I was driving and had to brake suddenly at a red light, and I heard something fall off my roof and onto the road. Hopped out and saw it was my pocket knife. So not exactly found, but i was surprised it made several commutes down i95 before finally falling off! And I'm glad I found my knife!

    i'm impressed with walmart's tool selection!

    If anybody here is located in Broward County in South Florida, there's a Walmart like this on Powerline Road and Atlantic Boulevard. I was genuinely shocked when I went in. They had a couple different toolboxes/generators/air compressors and two big aisles of tools. I was really surprised...

    Show your new tool arrivals

    Advanced auto had a 30% off code (TRT30) so I got the Gearwrench standard and deep 3/8 metrics, total was $40 before tax. Pretty good price for a full set of metric standard and deeps. Gonna go pick them up in the morning!

    Show off your "Custom Handled Ratchet"

    After looking through this thread, I had to try it out. Just used a cheap 99 cent screwdriver from Lowes on one of my 1/4 Gearwrench ratchets. I really like it!
