    Looking to buy a F70N 3/8” Snapon ratchet with a 1947 date code. I’ve attached a pic to show the date code “7” symbol. If you have one or come across one, please let me know. Thanks.

    can you return tools to hd or lowes without receipt for store credit?

    Just my .02. If you know the gift came from a Home Depot then I would return it but if you know it didn't come from Home Depot, no, sell it here or on eBay etc.

    Wiltonviseparts.net (Wilton jaws)

    Just received my new Wilton jaws from Kevin. The jaws are very well made and should last a few lifetimes. I bought them on Saturday and they were shipped the same day. Couldn't ask for anything more. Thanks again Kevin!! :beer:

    can you return tools to hd or lowes without receipt for store credit?

    Doesn't matter if it was purchased from a specific store...without a receipt they will normally give you store credit but with so many people stealing it depends on the store. Most time they will look it up if you used a card (debit / credit). If it's a gift not sure...ask the person that gave...

    Tool dilemma, need advice

    If that were me and my buddy passed away I would sell what I didn't need and give the money back to his family. Funerals and even memorials are very expensive...every bit would help his family.

    HD employees can't read

    They have several Ryobi one+ trimmers at different price points. That one for $49.88 looks to be the one normally for sale for $69. They have a few others, one that sells for $119. Maybe they got confused...it happens. If that's all you have to worry about today, consider yourself lucky!!

    Need opinions on choosing a 4½ angle grinder.

    I think I'm going with this Metabo. I like that is has variable speed setting for sanding. https://www.metabo.com/us/enus/tools/cutting-sanding-milling/angle-grinder/angle-grinders-o4-1-2-6/wev-15-125-quick-inox-600572420-5-angle-grinder.html

    Need opinions on choosing a 4½ angle grinder.

    I've narrowed it down to these three; - Milwaukee 6141-30 https://www.milwaukeetool.com/power-tools/corded/6141-30 - Makita 9564PC (Makita's site is acting up so here's the Amazon link) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001ASDTOU/?tag=atomicindus08-20 - Bosch AG40-11PD...

    Vampire screw extractor

    Show you what? Multiple people have said the same thing over the years about the steel being soft and they're all verified purchases, so they're not just random reviews. I doubt they all got together and conspired against Vampliers or the Engineer brand. Some use them harder than others. Just...

    Which Thread chaser kit?

    I bought a small set from Summit years ago but I can't find them. There were only like 5 or 6 in the set. They worked great and held up fine. After doing some reading I decided to go with the Craftsman. More are in this set and the reviews are mostly positive.
