Apologies I got incredibly busy over the last couple of weeks and forgot all about my post. Thank you for the incredibly thorough response. Usually I’ll settle for a few simple reply’s all agreeing on the same equipment as my general guide to follow, so i really do appreciate all the information...

Hey everyone, I’m looking to get a vacuum chamber to use with my resin projects, some silicon molding, and mostly for wood stabilization. I’ve got a couple of chambers picked out, but the only thing I’m a little hesitant about is the pump because most of these chambers on Amazon come in a kit...

Hey all, I’m wanting to pick up a vacuum chamber to start doing my own wood stabilizing for making things like knife handles. So I’ve got my chamber picked out, the only question i have is whether or not to go with this kit that has a pump included or should i try to source a better pump for the...

You’re not wrong lol I’ve been eyeing this tool for a really long time, and i have yet to see someone who owned it say it’s junk, quite the opposite actually. But since it is a bit older i wanted to make sure i wasn’t ignoring what else might be available. I’ve also seen a lot of people say the...

Hey all, it’s been a while since i posted on here, anyway with Christmas approaching quickly my wife and daughter are asking me what i want and this year i want to keep it simple. I’ve needed a router well for aboht as long as i started making projects. Just one of those tools i never got around...

Damn i didn’t even think about the discount for wrightgrips when i was scouring the net for the best price for my 2.0 sets i want to say Zoro piped up but they were way more then where i found and purchased mine. I’ll bet at 25% off that wouldn’t have been the case

That’s good info I’ve honestly only looked at zoro for tools and big ticket items, never thought to check them for chemicals. Thanks

I know some might disagree but I’m with you, my budget is very limited which is why i put it towards tools so i can keep more of it in my pocket when things break. I’d much rather spend $300 on the tools to fix something vs $300 to a mechanic or a repair guy

Thanks for the heads up definitely something i will keep in mind going forward. It’s to bad that my stores (if any at all) keep those sunex sets in the store where i could take advantage of the military discount. As it stands HD is completely even with the metric set I’m after and about $3 more...

I will agree with you on the proto tools, before i was very interested in 2 sets of there ratcheting wrenches until i found out that they aren’t not the same style between there metric and sae sets so that was a turn off. Still that 25% off deal would have yielded some good discounts on protos tools

So I’ve been waiting for a long time to see the email from Zoro about a sale on hand tools. I usually just delete there emails but after reading though the threads here a lot of members referenced those sales as a good time to grab tools. Saw it first thing this morning and went searching. I...

Honestly I’m so glad that i found this forum after using a little mobile propane setup for a couple of winters and hating the noise and condensation on all my tools and walls. Like 58yeoman i went with a bigg max but mine is the 50k size. My garage is a lot smaller then his and even though it...

After seeing an old post on here a few years back I went with the 779. The specs between both those models where literally the exact same but at the time the nearly $200 price difference came down to dewalts lighting system which the 779 didn't have. Well needless to say the parts to add the...

A few months ago my grandfather passed and i drove down to his house to help my family clean up his place. My grandfather raised me from age 4 and he lived in his garage practically. I spent many years watching him repair almost anything with vintage tools, and through this process i was...

Basically what I meant was it will be used for airbrushing and other smaller air tool task. I like the idea of having a portable compressor something that isn't a total pain to move around my house. God knows when it comes time to work down in my basement getting my fat harbor freight compressor...
