Remember that when it comes time for the little blue pill... Some modifications are pretty vital.

The best tools are the modified ones. They don't make the best tool for EVERY task yet...enter Mother Necessity.

Uh...trucker here. As much as I enjoy Astro Tools, I'd like to respectfully withdraw my application to assist your R&D Team in exchange for free tools. I've seen more than one rig hanging from a bridge and don't want to try it for fun. 😁

I'm just working with a Harbor Freight Scissor Lift that goes to 58" high, but yes! Way less pain than working on your back in the driveway.

S.U.R.&R. sells two sizes of rubber cups that fit around your oil filter and prevent it dripping all over you and everything else... They also sell an Oil Plug gasket and o-ring kit as well as a kit of copper crush washers for banjo bolts on your brake calipers. Annnnd they sell a 4 piece set...

I use them on vintage Kee push mowers! They have bicycle style wheels and need a cone wrench for the nut at the back of the spindle. I bought the full set of Park cone wrenches.

Every so often we'll have a small leak under the house and have to slice and splice a new section in. So rather than using my larger, ratcheting style pvc cutters, I decided to try out the smaller, non-ratcheting style. Whichever one I like least will go to one of my sons. 😁 I decided to buy...

Hopefully it'll get the job done. I didn't spend a ton of time looking for the highest quality option. OTC offers one, but sometimes these cheap tools get it done too. 10-4 on the chamfering tool. I'll look into it.

Anytime Cam, glad I could help. Best I can figure is that the 8 points are designed for use with a breaker bar so it has some of the advantages that a ratchet and the 4 point set would have in terms of more angles. Also, it might minimize the risk of stripping out the gears on a ratchet if you...

If you bought enough of them to make a circle...and then put a 1/4 hex on the back of your 1/4 driver...would this be a perpetual energy device?... 😁

You're welcome. I hope it works out for you. Let me know if it does. Bonus points if you can get away with snapping a photo or two so I can understand the application of the tool here. I thought they were gimmicky at first, but eventually I recognized the utility of them.

@LXCam Anytime. Man, I've been meaning to send you a message with a few tool recommendations that I think you might find useful, but I've got to find the video again. Yep. Quite a bit this time. I rarely have time to post what I buy. Usually it goes straight to use or straight to the toolbox...

You're going to love these. I have the ones from GripEdge. They're fantastic for reducing off-angle leverage versus a regular length torx socket.

Decided to finally pick these push/pull spring tools up after the last leaking wheel cylinder I replaced. Picked these up from the Zon (Edit: eBay actually.) to pop CV axles out. They look like they could be useful, but best to use with caution so you don't crack a transmission housing. The...

If it helps, I have at least 2.5x as many pliers as this...👹😁
