It does. I need to take a magnet to it

Small electric heater to keep my shop from freezing up in the winter. It has some sort of sand looking stuff coming out of it. It is a cheap heater so wondering if it's the heating element coming apart. What is this stuff?

Never used. Has a few small scuffs from being set down that are pictured.

I know necro thread. Using a set of Masterforce/Menards line wrenches and they have a horrible fit. What is out there now that will do the job without rounding off the nuts?

GJ classifieds I have one for sale :) https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?p=7318185#post7318185

Nice! Thanks guys!

What kind of tool do I need to set these kind of rivets? https://www.rivetsonline.com/rivets/semi-tubular-rivets Put on a new awning on my race hauler because old one collapsed in a storm and found one of the rivets broken. Purchased new rivet and trying to figure out how to set it.

I already have a lift but my generous friend that helped me put mine up deserves one. He is big in the Jeeping community and helps a lot of people out. His name is Ben York. He is the one running the drill in the first pic and running the shop vac in the second pic.

Snap On Techangle 1/2" torque wrench ATECH3F250VR. Never used to torque bolts. Small scuffs on bottom where it was sat down.

Wypall waterless hand cleaners

Seems to be a decent ratchet but this is the reason I don't like any soft handled tools. They just never get clean again. This is what the ratchet I received in the free tool kit after using it in the shop a few times. Drives me nuts so when I use my Techangle or Techwrenches I clean my hands...

Funny you mention AIM. I have a buddy that is a director for one of the schools. He is currently dumping his personal Snap On inventory for Sonic tools. I am grabbing them up as much as I can afford. Thank you for that!! :)

I have one like the bottom one. Use it for the lug nuts on my truck.

If you adjust the lift cables so it lifts level then it will hit the locks at different times. Ran into this myself with a Bendpak XPR-10S. Mine is about a 1/2" difference and I use the screw pads to make up the difference. When I use the non adjustable frame cradles it is on a Jeep or truck...

Harbor freight ones are not coated. Laid on one to weld a cage in a Jeep and that was a big mistake.
