I want a few of those. Please let me know when you start taking orders.

Not to disrespect Merk, but that compactor is only good for sand and loose dirt. You actually need a Wacker Packer or Compacter Rammer or Jumping Jack. Those are made to compact dirt. I spent 10 years in the construction business and that plate compactor is useless on actually compacting soil...

+1 you the man!!!!

I never drink at anyone else's shop. I'm the tool guy. I don't want to be driving that big *** truck and drinking. But, at my "shop" (which is actually a carport with sides) when I am working on my 63 nova longroof, I will have a beer after I finish sanding and priming. (Not before because I am...

I sell them and RARELY have any customers bring them in for warranty. I deal with some heavy duty shops and they seem to hold up well.

How many of you guys ever rent tools for certain tasks? What types of tools do you rent?

http://www.cornwelltools.com/webcat/products.php?product=CAT4135-%252d-Blue-Power-1{47}2%22-Super-Duty-Impact-Wrench I have been selling these by the boat load. Super strong gun. Not bad weight. And a HELLUVA great price. Got Blue? :thumbup:

Best advice I can give you is: 1) If the sockets work correctly, grab the bolt or nut correctly, use them. or 2) If the rust bothers you, send them in a get a brand new one. We warranty sockets if the chrome is peeling. Why would that be? Because Cornwell stands behind their chroming process.

+1 Chad, I ask this at least once a week on my truck.

I'm not going to get in a ******* contest with s/o over your used sockets, but I know we sell an outstanding product and the ones you took pictures of have been abused and/or neglected. Cornwell has been making PROFESSIONAL GRADE tools since 1919. They don't send anything out flawed on purpose...

You may have a bad batch. I sell these sockets day in and day out and even the ones that have been abused (ie used on impact) don't look like that. Cornwell's warranty is one of the best in the business. Send them in and get them swapped.

I am all for a chat room also. :thumbup:

1) My Cornwell franchise cost me 10K out of pocket. 2) Making money...I was cutting a payroll check to myself in 2 weeks. 3) My business has been steady and constant since I began last Sept. Genius would be a nice line if you were going to be a INDY truck...To say you were thinking of buying a...

Customer told me today that he can swap out gear wrench at Lowe's and get a Kobalt in it's place....I heard they were the same stuff but didn't believe it....If this is true.....What's next? Matco for Kobalt? :lol_hitti GO BIG BLUE! CORNWELL TOOLS: The Choice of Professionals Since 1919
