    Modifications to the HF 4 and 5 drawer service carts - what changes have you made?

    You can get another one and then bolt them together back to back. That way you don’t need to pop rivet or epoxy them to your box. I always use the free coupon to get extras.

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Can you all let me know if you feel this Wilton 1750 looks to be in good shape and worth $165? I've been scouring the local listings and good vices don't pop up too often. I'm not a professional mechanic, homeowner use but I definitely need a vice for future car repair projects...

    Dust Buster recommendations?

    I have that same Black and Decker Pivot for over a year now. It works well. The hinge broke on the canister and Black and Decker sent me a new one within a week. I've never used it long enough to run the battery down completely but easily get 10-15 minutes.

I didn't...

    Let's talk Axes for a Minute

    I have the fiskars axe the next size up (28 inch) from your link. It's been great. Very sharp and stays sharp. I've probably split about 3 cords with it primarily red oak. It just blows the rounds apart. So much better than the **** sledge hammer and wedge I used as a kid. I'm 5'8" so if you're...

    Negative on Chadstoolbox

    No personal beef other than their customer service. Here's the chain of emails. I guess what bothers me is that if they had ever told me the "correct" address I would have been happy to ship it to the "correct" one. I also checked with UPS and they confirmed the package was delivered and not...

    Negative on Chadstoolbox

    Another disgruntled chadstoolbox customer here. Received pliers with the wrong grips. They asked me to return them promising to reimburse return shipping. I send them via UPS to their address on their website via UPS. Delivery confirmed, follow up via email to make sure they received package...
