    Wright 9/16" wrench

    Hi! I'm looking for an older Wright 9/16" wrench to complete a set. Attached are pics of the 1/2" and 5/8" to give an indication of what I am looking for. Thanks for looking and send a PM if you have the wrench I'm looking for. Scott

    Which long reach jack?

    I've used the Daytona for a few years now and love it. Plenty of lift for jacking up lifted 4x4s while being able to sneak under a low rig. I noticed the Arcan doesn't appear to have a foot pedal while the Daytona does. The pedal is handy for quick positioning of the jack. Scott

    What names have Waterloo boxes been re-badged under?

    Sorry to take a few months to reply, but that is a stock box as sold in the International Harvester dealers. Its the cheaper line that IH sold at the time. The more expensive were made by Kennedy. Scott

    Hobart vs Vulcan vs Titanium...

    Looking at how often Harbor Freight changes up their welder line, I'd stay away just because of unknown product and parts support over time. As far as Hobart, I've got a Hobart 140 that has worked great for me! Scott

    I've got some different sets in blow molded cases that I stand on edge in my deep drawer. The handles are at the top and they are easy to grab when needed. Scott

    Best value in creepers?

    I recently picked up a Northern Tool creeper like the one in the link. Its "ok" at best. Within half an hour of using it, the thin vinyl covering started to split. Not happy with it in that respect. Scott

    Car tool kit

    I'd suggest something like this socket/wrench/screwdriver bit/allen key set. https://www.lowes.com/pd/Kobalt-138-Piece-Standard-SAE-and-Metric-Mechanic-s-Tool-Set-with-Hard-Case/50200791 It wouldn't have to be Kobalt, but maybe a HarborFreight or used pawnshop set. Anyhow, it would allow...

    Garage Stereo Build

    Good question. The bottom of the cabinet has a 3/4" plywood enclosure surrounding the speakers. There is also a couple reinforcement strips of wood in the corners. The top box is bolted solid to the bottom box. The top box also has a heavy wood "floor" that I added along with more wood...

    Garage Stereo Build

    Posting up some pics of my winter spare-time project. After my garage radio died, I decided to get creative and build my own. I found a cheap tool cabinet that I removed the shelf and drawers from. Inside it, I added a cabinet and inner support structure made of 3/4" plywood. The radio is...
