I've found all of those products to be fidgety and annoying. Once you like where your pegboard bracket is placed, grab the shortest wood screw you have lying around, and run it into one of the holes your pegboard hook is in. Works like a champ, never comes out, is something you probably...

FYI camelcamelcamel has an extension too. Functions just about identically. I didn't even realize folks still went to the camelcamelcamel website for anything :LOL:

FWIW the prices on the items I spot checked were only about $10 off of Amazon prices. Not saying its not a good deal, but that 51% off reference price isn't as big as they make it out to be.

Definitely a great tool for the price, though worth mentioning this is the normal Amazon price and you can pick this up at the same price from Home Depot.

This is what I'm working with, FIP on the left, comp on the right. HF doesn't sell the part anymore, so DIY is my only path.

The difficulty is the different fitting on each end. Couldn't find a local supplier who could take a FIP to a comp without multiple adapters.

In installing an automatic drain valve, I regretfully cut the metal pressure switch line on my compressor. I should be able to just go to a hardware store and replace it, right? Wrong! It looks like a 1/8 FIP on one end and a 1/4 comp on the other side. Finding an easy way to replace this is...

If you scroll a few pages back you'll see I scored a sweet deal on a heater for my garage when it was 100+ out lol.

I had been dragging my feet on an order, looks like its time to knock it off and commit!

Today I learned what a "clutch" bit is. Huh.

I can't believe I just bought a heater after a 100-degree day, but here we are.

I take all of this back. You have to push incredibly hard to get the extension to seat into the handle. Its a friction hold, not a magnet.

This one: https://wurthtool.com/collections/bestsellers/products/zebra-t-handle-ratchet-screwdriver-set-includes-11-bits-1-square-1-flat-2-hexagon-2-phillips-5-torx I just JB-welded a tiny magnet into it.

Bought the zebra t-handle. If you turn the tool so it faces the floor, the bit holder falls out. Because there is no magnet. Really strange.

Definitely not. Roller (and brush) all the way.
