Another light. Though not bought with the idea of work in mind. Partly because I wanted something with some oomph, and because I've read a lot about price to performance with the brand. Solid. Got it in a more neutral LED color. Quite pleased with it. Got a headlamp from the same company coming...

Dude, $40 for a battery ratchet is a screaming deal.

Been on a lighting kick lately. Got this on sale, sub $5 from the 40 Thieves site 🤣 It's different than the wedge style light. Just a pocket thrower. No UV. Flood off the side is pretty decent. Fairly strong magnet base. I don't care about the strobe features, but it has them.

3/8 drive 21-24mm expansion set 🤣

Nice!!

Because I like things that cut 🤣🤣 Really nicely done little thing.

I own a handful of HF cordless tools. For the price point, I like them plenty. I've got Bauer impact driver and 1/2 impact gun... Neither are brushless. I've got the Herc 3/8 extended ratchet, again not brushless. The one Bauer yard tool I have is the line trimmer. It does more than I expected...

Impulse and curiosity combined. 🤣 Feels overbuilt at the price point. I'm actually surprised by it.

I bought a few for guys at work, and they came in sharp 🤣 Ran a file over it to break the edge; no way am I handing a liability out for someone to gish themself with. Surprising they let them ship out like that. These were 442s.

$2 thrift grab. Yamaha and a Gedore. Not a big fan of DOE wrenches... But they work. Would have bought the Yamaha regardless for grins🤣 Gotta find a Honda and Kawasaki wrench on the cheap so I can have some from the Big 4. Lol. Metrics at a buck a pop... I'll snag almost every time.

Had this little guy show up. Pic is from Amazon, as it's currently charging after function testing. Little wedge edc style light. Warsun T9Pro. Does typical high, medium, low, turbo. Strobe. Has a side light that does 3 levels of intensity, magnetic base. Can do red light strobe. Has UV, and a...

If you opt for a power ratchet, I would recommend a long neck for sure. Access matters. The body shop guys at work use a Milwaukee band file for cutting spot welds out.

Love me some long pattern zero offsets. Mine are Toptul and Capri. As far as backprobes go... There's lots of inexpensive sets out there. Amazon has many. I got my set from HF as well. Maddox set is like $14, and do what they're designed to do. Easy, functional, cheap. No need to overthink it 🤣

My experience with Icon wrenches is limited. I can say that so far, everything I've got that's Icon has been good for the money. Very good. Ratchets (gen2), some pliers, a light, some sockets mostly on a personal level. At the work level, I've bought wrenches, pliers, picks, sockets, wire...

I bought a set from Amazon, as I generally don't have any issues with Sunex. The listing still shows the older Taiwanese set. Price is certainly palatable. Came in an Indian produced set. They're ok in terms of fit and finish. I've only had one occasion so far to use them. Not the most...
