    Tool for gripping T40 “cam’d - out” Button Head 6MM Steel Bolt in Aluminum

    Yes, either saw/grind a slot and use a flat screw driver bit (ideally with a hand impact driver) or else grind two flats on either side and use an end wrench.

    Help a Brother out? I want a Bench Grinder, also need a belt sander. Wissota is what I'd love to find in a combo, but have not had any luck.

    Yes, sorry for the confusion. The Multitool attachment is a kit you can theoretically just bolt on to a grinder, but the offset of the shaft on the craftsman Block grinders specifically is too long, so I had to machine a spacer. The rest is also a custom job. And thanks for the compliment!

    I could be wrong but what I think you're seeing is a Kalamazoo belt grinder that someone has modified to be driven by a grinder. It's probably not that hard, but also probably not a simple add on kit. I've been very happy with my Multi-tool attachment on my grinder, and they make bigger/wider...

    What are some of the tools manufacturers could make, but don't make?

    😲 And here I thought they were referring to the "impact" rated version not even knowing they made a chrome version. Thanks!

    Air compressor recommendation needed

    Air compressors last a long time. Like, a real long time if you take care of them. To the point that most people here won't have experience with more than one compressor made in the same 20 year span unless they have special circumstances. People may have brand preferences, but even then brands...

    They end up just looking like craftsman drivers.

    Harry J Epstein Day 2026

    Forgot to post my order: 35531. I probably should have put this in the comments but please don't rush any aspect of my order. No need to ship items separately etc. I'm in no hurry!

    Which Pass Thru/Go Through Sockets/Ratchets Swap/Interchange?

    Sorry, I'm talking about the external drive interface, not the hex where the fastener goes.

    Which Pass Thru/Go Through Sockets/Ratchets Swap/Interchange?

    So what's the pattern/size of the external drive? Looks like 12 point?

    Grip Edge / RBT Loadout for Home Auto Work ?

    I have some of the Craftsman Overdrive stuff and it seems good. Didn't Dewalt also recently release some rbrt equivalent stuff?. Might be worth checking out if the price of the GripEdge/Rbrt stuff is too high. Edit: Looks like the dewalt has been out for a while. Here's the wrench set...

    Looking for a quality benchtop mill

    The Clausing 85 series and Millrite MV series mills were knee mills, not benchtop mills. They were/are smaller, but still have fully functional knees. For the record, I own or have owned a Grizzly G0759 (benchtop mill), a Rockwell 21-100 (small knee mill), and 3 different variants of the...

    Project idea: Mutli-air-compressor air controller

    I'm well documented on this forum in favor of "distributed" compressor setups. Lots of members here need a little more air in "peak" scenarios, but otherwise don't need the expense/space/power consumption of a giant compressor. Some do, and they're very vocal about it, but many don't. I think...
