    VEVOR pass/fail

    Convinced the prop management company I work for to spend the $1000 for the Vevor Pro Press (1/2" - 2" jaws). We have about 50 presses on it using blue fin fittings. Works great. Have yet to charge the batteries.

    End-wrench rolls

    This $10 one I have rolls up tight. One of the things I like about it since it lives in a little Milwaukee bag.

    End-wrench rolls

    I had a leather wrench roll that was bulky when rolled up. I ended going with this: https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0D12KZBPK?tag=atomicindus08-20 Had it for about 6 months. Gets thrown into my toolbag often. Top flap covers the entire wrench of the standard snap on metric wrenches. Holds...

    Recommend an inexpensive 3D printer please.

    First, I'd like to recommend a CAD program with an easy learning curve: emachineshop.com (go there and download their cad). It's lightweight, no bloat, and free. Export as DXF, then import into your slicer (I use Cura). I have an Ender 3 v2. In my opinion it prints good, but I have nothing to...

    What drill and or driver driver should I get?

    I use the current gen m12 set at work daily. They haven't let me down. The impact with a compact battery is hard to beat for its size/power. I came from m18 stuff, and wouldn't go back.

    Where do flea market sellers get all of their tools?

    There's a guy in my area that has a constant stream of used snap on tools on marketplace. I've bought a few sets off of him. According to him he buys collections and filled boxes. He then pieces them out.

    Show your portable driver bit solution

    These carabiner locking holders. They're easily accessible, can be pulled off with one hand, and stay put. Had them for a year and one has never fell out. Unfortunately they aren't sold at any brick and mortar store I know of. Game changer.

    Does anyone have the original mfg of these?

    I just bought a tekton 17mm one to sample. It's quite nice, over 14" in length. TEVideos inspired me w/ his Matcos. Tekton is $265 6-19mm on Amazon.

    Recommend a tool backpack with wheels for apt maint.

    Looks like they do have one. $400 + tax though =[ I'm seeing $300 for used on eBay. Wonder if any of the Amazon brands are at least decent though. Hmph.

    Recommend a tool backpack with wheels for apt maint.

    One the guys that works for me uses the Dewalt packout setup with the toolbag which locks on top. Overkill for the kind of stuff I handle. Plus he never looks happy dragging it around.

    Recommend a tool backpack with wheels for apt maint.

    I've considered this route. Is prefer something with integrated wheels and the option to throw on my back to free up hands. Unfortunately the ones I've perused on amazon just seem to be low quality. Veto doesn't seem to have what I'm looking for though.

    Recommend a tool backpack with wheels for apt maint.

    I've been using this husky backpack daily for more than a year now. I'm looking for a similar setup and pocket arrangement with wheels/handle. Cons - heavy , but manageable once on back - flimsy and kind of collapses on itself - the main compartment becomes a void of bigger stuff - the zippers...

    Paint Brushes / Rollers Clean and Reuse or Toss?

    I work in apt maintenance. Roller pads get ordered in bulk and tossed after single use. Wooster HD brushes make it about a month or two before getting replaced.
