Bix-ger-diff. Don't stress over which syllable to accent -- JSTCHZWN.

Not to forget these must-haves from last year: Vessel 18mm Wide Water faucet Screwdriver (5700WP) Shinwa Stainless Steel Fractional Taper Gauge 1/16" - 5/8" (62606) Shinwa Stainless Steel Taper Gauge 700A 1-15MM (62600)

That's unexpectedly inexpensive @ $6.25. Hard to tell the size. Does it have the typical (from my memory) 8 to 10 inches of bristles common for most counter brushes?

Whatever tools you decide on, the best tool you can provide will be the hands on training. I thought I had shown my spouse how to operate the jump pack, evidently I didn't do a good job. With the tow and shop battery install, it turned into a very expensive battery replacement.

The best rebate experience I've had was from Valvoline. A couple of years ago they had a $5 rebate promotion (on 5 qt jugs, as I recall). After texting them a pic of the receipt and providing basic info, the rebate was in my Venmo account within a couple of days. This could be done up to five...

Not sure if I missed something in this mini ratchet thread on the Utoku that four.cycle mentioned -- I didn't see a link. Thought I'd mention they are available for $20 - $24 from ABD tools: https://abdtoolsandsupply.com/collections/ratchets/bit-ratchet. I haven't purchased from ABD but am...

Interesting. Not cheap on Amazon, for example,... you must have been in quite a rage. :mad: If you get around to testing on a 1/4-20 or M6 let us know how it went.

That was a few years ago!

Available on Amazon https://www.amazon.com/Tajima-VRB2-100B-Premium-Tempered-100-Pack/dp/B00NY8R9OU?tag=atomicindus08-20. $38 seems to be the standard price. Can be found on Ebay and other sites for this price and more. Nothing special about Ebay.

The Lowes near me also had some Irwin Hansen tap/drill combos in the close out section. Of interest to me were: metric 10 - 1.5, 8 - 1.25 and 1/4-18 NPT sets. As I recall the taps were listed as made in the US and drill bits made in Mexico. There were a few other SAE sets in small sizes...

It is the GR3085023 Gedore 1/2 in drive 16 pc socket set, sold for $57 on Zoro. Currently, it sells for $316 on KC Tools and probably was about the same price at that time, too. So, yes stupid cheap, but no it's no match for the current version of stupid cheap.

The 1/2" drive socket set set from last year was direct shipped from Germany - for me, at least. I expect this accounts for some of the delay and I expect the same for the recent offerings under discussion here.

Bought the special edition bottle opener And they threw in a couple of decent pliers for free Functional and functional

I took advantage of the Memorial Day weekend free shipping from KC Tool to order a Knipex Orbis angled jaw plier 90 21-150. Excellent quality but a plier with more angle to the jaws might be useful. This jaws on this are angled 25 deg to the grips. Made in Germany.
