^^^ maybe the 76 is loud but my new fast feed is super quiet. I just bought myself an Oster fast feed with Andis guards. So far so good. I used a cheap wahl for 10 years it was Loud and obnoxious, I should have upgraded it years ago...

I just texted someone a pic of mine and said you need to get one of these.. Earlier he handed me an absolute piece of **** Screw driver. Obviously more like a paint can opener. Luckily I got exposed young, My father had them when I was growing up in the late 80-90s I now have quite a few more...

It’s not meant to be serviceable... I did a write up on them years back.

I have one I bought new in 2012 at the time they were 1300-1400 out the door depending on the bar... the price is not terrible if indeed its in good shape... Do a compression test and if you can pull the muffler and look at the piston, look at the Air filter, The fuel filter, Fuel/oil caps...

I used them to sharpen all my chainsaws I do them by hand... the last time I didn’t wear em, I ended up with 6 stitches on the back side of my hand. Good enough reason for me...

Dogdog The impact gun trick has absolutely worked for me in the past, but it’s sometimes to risky... so I’ll use an air hammer to just induce some vibration. Great tip... I call totally bs on these claims that little torches don’t work. I use a ts8000 running on propane everyday for stuck...

One word comes to mind when someone says cases... Pelican. Pick your socket brand, and make your own foam insert. Best of both worlds.

I own quite a bit of both. All of my cordless is Hilti and my corded stuff is split 50/50 Hilti Dewalt. I’ve had the cordless Hilti for Around 10 years now... top notch stuff. 2 drills, 3/8” impact, and sawzall. They still look and perform like new. I did commercial av installations with...

Got a new to me vise its quite large unknown maker but very sturdy. just needed some grease and a fresh coat of paint. The beaten to hell Colombian vise we scrapped after years of abuse, But The stand is extremely Heavy duty so a new 12"x 12" 1/2 plate of steel and a piece of stainless from a...

I made a tire bead seater from one of them. Theirs a flat head bleeder screw on the lower part of the valve opening will vent the tank so be well ventilated area and no flames of course... Give it and hour or two and you can remove the valve with a decent size pipe wrench it’s best to hold...

First up I have some new shop tools, we have been so busy i've neglected to upload and organize new photos... up until now... A Dake arbor press model #0 It was in pretty rough shape paint wise, but was full functional... unfortunately I don't have a before pic... Sitting in front of...

You do now :) I use that at home and work in bar form great stuff. As well as Zep TKO. I get quite filthy on a daily basis whether it chainsaw dust, concrete dust , or oil and grease. Those two soaps and the occasional squirt of dawn, keep me clean enough you would never guess what I do day...

That’s basically means you pole is to short for what your height yours working at. The longer the pole the better angle you can get while being further away the drop zone.

I have that 3pc set they very small... to say the least, but when you need them well... Not sure what your looking to make, but they make really nice torque tools in general...

My 1/2 impact swivel is the welded style Snap On with the pin retention. It can be a life saver and a pain in the *** at times, I also have a sunex ball type that came with one of their kits. Best of both worlds if I could pick one. I have to say The snap on pin type is hard to beat its safe...
