    Wobble Extension Set

    Nepros makes them in 1/4 and 3/8 drive. Wobble-plus and shortest available, which can come in handy. And you can always put on the end of your regular extension to make longer so you don't have to buy a full set of wobble extensions, just the shortest... Scroll down just a bit for 3/8...

    Tools of Japan

    Yes. I have the shortest 1/4" and 3/8" drive wobble extensions and they lock straight all the way on, and wobble slightly pulled out. From what I've heard this is equivalent to Snap On's wobble plus. But the Nepros ones are shorter. That's the only size I need, since can be made longer by...

    Tools of Japan

    Love those drivers. I have a Japanese Hozan cross-point #2 with identical geometry. Wonder if these are re-labeled for Vessel? Or maybe the same parent company??

    wobble extensions

    I picked up the Nepros 1/4" and 3/8" wobble extensions... their shortest available. I had read a while ago that the shortest wobble is all you need as you can put it on the end of your regular extensions if needed and they are super short for tight spaces. The 1/4" is 25mm (1") and the 3/8" is...

    2018 Garage Sale Thread

    Love everything about this post. Thanks for sharing!! I recently purchased a new Craftsman hatchet on sale for camping with my 9 year old son. That was after I read him "Hatchet" the book by Gary Paulsen. I was looking for a stacked leather handled Estwing but couldn't justify the expense...

    How to bring a new product to market?

    Seems like you're looking for a small, low-cost air motor to spin a fan. Surely someone makes them in China. I wonder how loud they are?...

    Hacksaw - Cut on the Push or the Pull ?

    Interesting idea. I never tried. The convention is to cut on the push stroke when using a hacksaw. I, too, enjoy Japanese pull saws but think hacksaws are better left as designed.

    Kobalt bit ratchet set

    I had one of these Kobalt bit ratchet sets 35 pc. for $10 on sale. Ratchet started skipping right away. Kept the case and bits and added the much better VIM tools HBR5 bit ratchet. Can get that on Amazon, Tooltopia, etc. http://amzn.to/2FDVkJu
