    1/2" Cordless Impact Shopping

    You may want to check your local HD. I've seen them marking down the Milwaukee 2763 to $110 for the tool. One of the tool review sites just released a shootout of the cordless 1/2" impact wrenches. https://shoptoolreviews.com/automotive/impact-wrenches/best-cordless-impact-wrench-shootout/30501/

    Large 1/2" drive sockets (1-1/4" and up)

    You can find them on Amazon. Sunex Tools has them on there. Also, check with your local industrial supplier. I know that our local metal supplier had some. I recently purchased a 1/2" drive 1-13/16" socket from them. About $24.

    Hanging type shelves in shop, anyone done it?

    Lol, those were early pictures...not quite finished...even though we put a lot of junk up there already. We cut all the excess all-thread off with a cordless band saw, and took the sharp edges off with a grinder. Sent from my Pixel XL using Tapatalk

    Dewalt Torque Wrench--Would you buy one?
