templates like French curves are use for elevation lines. Anyone that does a lot of wood working will use them for laying out curves and scrolls. As an architect I do all my house and small buildings by hand. I do a much better job of lay out and design on paper. Auto Cad is fine for some...

Find a used one for $250

I have recent Wright catalog if you want it. Just send me your address. I have never found a place that discounts them. I did pick up a full set of SAE Wright wrenches in the roll for $50 at a swap meet several years back. 1/4" to 1-1/4" Nice satin chrome finish. They are hard to find...

What now????? Screwing and drinking envy. For you that don't get it, in psychology their is such a thins as ***** envy. Look it up. Coveting and envy over drinking and screwing. Makes one wonder. LOL

There are 3 that I would have Delta Unisaw Power Matic Jet They are all equal. The PM will have a little better finish. All 3 are 10" saws and all are good quality. I own all 3. They will do anything you want. You can miter, compound miter. rip. bevel and slice. They are fantastic. I can...

They still sell the tappet wrenches. They are nice and thin. They work good on woodworking machinery and machine shop machines. They are great for nuts on power tools if you need a thin wrench. I pick them up all the time for $1 each. I don't care the brand. I have a box full and when I get...

I am not even going to read the post A 12 point socket is not the same thing as a 3 square socket which has 12 points. The angles are different. Most square sockets are 8 sided. The Snap-on old web page explained it all. Their new site is the pits and things are very hard to find. A 3...

When HF gets an order form the factories they have lot numbers. Some times I have seen the same item from 4 different lots. Very common with the. They do it so see how much money they make on each order. Cost and shipping can vary and it gives them perfect price control. The computer does all...

I read your post and cracked up. At first I though you came up with a new way to keep your fly closed. LOL Drawers. Droopy drawers.

Low's had them on sale for $5 for a set of 3 last year. At least the read form left to right. The Hansen ones are Chinese the read from right to left. What I don't get is why the hell they skipped the 26 on them. Low's copied the others but forgot to put a post I for the 26. They should...

Great score. I will give you 60 and pay the freight. I would not sell it for that price though. How anyone thought that was form the 30's or 40's is beyond me. The way it is made and the colour of the box tells its age. I figured 70's Thanks for sharing it with us. $15 is so dun...

If a thing is worth doing it is worth doing right. I have used #40 PVC at home and on the farm for 35 years. Never had a problem. The fittings will get cold and crack. If mounted right it will not flop all over bit when a fitting blows chunks are shot out like a high powered air riffle...

The same company that makes Gearwrench, Allen, Craftsman and a host of other tools make the Fluke meters. The really kicker is the company is the worlds largest supplyer of surgical and medical tools. They make some of the worlds best electronic medical devices. I don't think there is...

Get over it!

I am retied but I am fixing electronics and other things all the time. I have a 12 piece set of small drivers and picks in a case from Snap-on. It is the best set. I have all brands of screwdrivers but the tips of the Phillips are such a good fit with the Snap-on. I have Craftsman and they...
