    Compression - Show Off Your Compressor

    The filter/regulator and braket that comes in the package sells for around $105, and they are selling the everything for $120 - I dont think that I can get all of that pipe, fittings, and valves for under 20 bucks. I think for my needs that the 1/2 will work ok... You definitely need to watch...

    Compression - Show Off Your Compressor

    Hi Everyone! I spent the day working on the compressor project, and was able to get the compressor moved off of the shipping pallet, and onto my pallet. I also finished up the power run and disconnect switch. I will be finishing the panel tie-in tomorrow and plan to have it running. I am...

    Are Homak tool boxes made in USA?

    I actually stopped by the Homak offices about a month ago, and they showed me the different lines that they have available. The only line that is made in the US (BY Kennedy) is the Big Dawg line. The Big Dawg box's are pretty nice. There are a few other lines - H2Pro, professional and SE...

    Looking for some nice mini/electronic hex and screwdrivers?

    Thanks for all the input! I like the Wiha Master Set that has the plexiglass holder, but have no need for some of the pieces in that set at this time, and can not put that inside the tool box easily. I may get a few of the individual sets and the folding pouches so I can throw them in a...

    HF 13 drawer chest question

    Outcast - I liked your post! :) The store manager actually wrote on my receipt that he would not be responsible for damage to my carpets in my toyota Sienna when we slid the box in the side door. It was a work van that had all of the seats removed. Nothing was damaged :) I figured out how to...

    HF 13 drawer chest question

    I have a drawer question - when I close most of my drawers on this box they have a small notch when almost closed that is to help hold them closed - I have a couple of drawers that do not do this well. I moved the drawers around and the problem follows the drawers and not the cabinet slot. I...

    Help me choose a ratchet for my work tool box...

    I carry a small inexpensive 1/4 ratchet in my work tool box, and only use it for one specific machine. It does the job ok, but have been looking around for a nice SO or higher quality. Any suggestions on something that would be about the same size? As you can see, the one that I am using is...

    flashlights?

    I am getting tired of replacing my $7 led lights and going thru 3AAA batteries about every other day. I was at a local police/fire supplier and looked at a nice rechargeable - I am wondering now if it was a Strion? It was about $120 - think I am going to stop and take another look. I would...

    Let's see your toolbox.

    This is my box for work, it has managed to stay nice and neat for a whole year! The upper pallet is starting to show some wear, and I may need to order a replacement soon. This is a normal in-bound trip for a service visit - less the cardboard box that is on top of my black tool box. I...
