    your favorite $100 shop item

    The cheap Milwaukee M-spector inspection camera might be in your price range if you can find it on sale -- I think I've seen it about $100 in Home Depot in the past. Or maybe just do gift cards to simplify your life.

    10mm socket wow great advertising

    This guy has been selling tools to go into retirement for a couple of months now. At least in the older auctions he would include pictures of the tools. For a socket, I guess I don't need to see it, but for some of the larger sets of items he was selling, I felt that he was trying to distract...

    See the press release: http://www.inddist.com/Content.aspx?id=501 I thought I'd start a new thread rather than continue the one from March about the Danaher-Cooper joint venture. Best hopes for continued production in the US, Hank Murphy

    What Happen If The Chinese Government Buy US Tool Companies?

    The mass media will never let facts get in the way of a good story.... Regarding Unocal, Chevron had been planning that acquisition for a long time -- they were both the major oil companies in California. Congress only got involved when Chevron lobbied them to, IMHO. Regarding the...

    Is This A Scam? [Ebay]
