indeed. that look like the same. mine is made in poland too. color is pale blue (hammerite style paint finish). i think mine is beyond 40 years or more in age. as i do remember playing and drilling with it myself as a kid over 30 years ago.. back when i was too young to be trusted a powertool...

there is pretty good deal at the moment of the Hazet 953SPC. 168euros. https://www.hitmeister.de/product/309797403/?id_unit=351457861002&sl=309797403-VGGJISBaU5wTiUqQwFgbq5fHnnZokJaz0ZXURqb2Ypc%3D ordered my hazet 3/8" set from that company last year. and.. so far i have been pleased with...

bought couple dozen assorted german made screwdrivers.. couldnt help myself.. store was a selling 8 random scredrivers for 4 euros, special price, they said they all are made in germany and called them to be "witte" brand. i decided to take a chance and bought one bag. 8 random sized witte...

my hazet magnetic cup is attached on the radiator next to my bed.. i keep flashlight, fruit knife (victorinox paring 8cm blade.. vicked sharp thing) and multitool (letherman juice s2) in it.. its a storage cup after all. reminds me.. gotta remember buy more of those victorinox kitchen knives...

and the handle shape is very very good! i find it one of the best i have held. i ordered a set. returned it because it was too rough (back drag). but i tested a second one in a store and that was alot smoother.. so bought it again. mainly just because of the handle beeing so nicely shaped. :)

finally pulled the trigger on getting the facom ratchet set i have been eyeing for some time. facom rs.440e set. 114euros/125usd. i tried to search if there were some other well known and respected (euro)brand offering better 1/2 and 1/4 ratchet set deal than that. but wasnt able to find them...

what are the actual differences between different facom ratchets? i find them a bit confusing to understand and cypher what each marking means.. like names.. are RL series 1/4", JL is 3/8" and SL is 1/2"? ---- and then there is the "standard ratchet" s.151 and "palm control ratchet" s.161...

as general rule i do not loan my tools. cheaper sh..stuff might be loaned and taken away from my presence. but the better tools. they may be used by others when i am around, but they are not loaned away. only to select few. and even then with stern reminder whose they are and how to treat...

do you need it locked and tools must be inside at all times? if not, how about mounting a pegboard or some other style of adding "space" on the outside of the box/cart. option also move/mount those chargers to the side of the cart? and same with prybars. the funnel likely takes alot of room...

all of them.

this is nice read too. including the comments section. http://toolguyd.com/if-i-lost-all-my-tools-which-brands-would-i-pick-for-replacements/

the same stuff im re-building my set currently. european and mostly by german brands. mixed with better quality of the chinese/taiwanese stuff. --- and in my spare time, i would be searching for the creep who stole them.

monte: fixing the wetrok.. according to our boss it is not cost effective to fix it anymore.. something motorwise is gone for good. (i will ask to take it home with me next week so it dont get thrown away.. maybe i can find a another broken machine somewhere some day that i can cannibalize them...

i agree.. thanks for the idea.. yet another tool related thing that i didnt really think i would need but obviously do want one.

yes. i do use mine too. about 15% of the time. 80% of time the normal L-shaped (acesa or bondhus), then 5% is the t handle ones.. i dont seem to get a grip how to use those t handles. (ok there might be 1% still extra times for those rare occasions i use a socket and ratchet, making total of...
