"I started wondering if I just put some mesh at the top in the gaps between the roof and the sides, would this alone be enough to keep their compressor cool? Or should I still look into a fan?"..... I don't normally have the compressor running continuously for much longer than about 10 minutes...

I realize this an ancient thread, but fwiw, in case someone else passes through, I have had one of those C-man 943797 ratchets forever and it has worked the way the OP described since it was new. That is why, as I understand, round head ratchets usually are considered a two handed operation...

Thank you!

Thanks everyone. And no, actually I did not realize that craftsman sockets are still US made. Having not actually gone to the store, I was under the impression that production had gone overseas. Outlaw, I did not know the Craftsman warranty does not cover wear, and your points about wear are...

Why would I exchange what is not "broken"? I am not talking about exchanging all, or even most, of the items. My dad was a mechanic and put quite a bit of wear on many tools during his career. I guess he used air ratchets on chrome sockets a lot. Anyway, for an item with marginal wear...

I am wondering if I should exchange older US made Craftsman sockets and wrenches for newer ones. I understand Craftsman has gone to china, and the new chinese craftsman is not well thought of here. I have a lot of Craftsman non-impact sockets and wrenches from the 1960's thru around 2001...

EarthQuake 1/4 Air Ratchet The earthquake 1/4 air ratchet is listed on clearance for $49.99. Are they really discontinuing this item? Doesn't seem like a hot deal for a HF clearance, am I missing something?

Magnesium Fire Starter = Pass Magnesium Fire Starter Pass About 1/2 the price of similar ones from other sources. Works about the same. To avoid dissapointment, learn how to use one from one of the excellent on-line videos. It takes some skill and practice to be able to rely on these...

7 Function Digital Multimeter item 90899 7 Function Digital Multimeter item 90899 http://www.harborfreight.com/7-function-digital-multimeter-90899.html PASS! I think these are an incredible value. I was surprised by how accurate it was, and bought second one. I have not used the...

Do impact wrench torque specs represent real-world performance? I work only on my own cars so my experience is limited. I have a ten year old Husky 1/2" impact wrench rated at 500 ft lbs. Is there anything on a car that this would not be adequate for? Thanks, Harry

I am wondering whether a Harbor Freight 3/8 butterfly impact or 3/8 reactionless air ratchet would be a better choice. This would be my second air tool - in addition to a regular 1/2 impact gun. My use is only for my own cars. A regular air ratchet does not seem worthwhile to me. The...

HF ACCEPTING SCANNED COUPONS? The coupons say the original must be presented. Will they take a b&w photocopy / scan / etc.? Thanks, Harry
