    Just broke my first Craftsman tool

    Somehow I doubt those pry bars would fit in the little pocket in my shorts lol. That was the little 5ish inch screwdriver. I DO have a set of HF pry bars, but even the smallest one would have been far too big for the little piece of metal I needed to bend out less than 1/16th of an inch. As I...

    Need Help in Selecting a 2 - 3 Ton Engine Hoist

    Ok, I don't feel so bad only paying $5 more lol. I mainly bought it to move around 2 Chevy 350 engines that are sitting in the dead center of my garage blocking everything, but over the weekend 3 of us moved everything BUT the engines, and I was still able to get one of my e30's inside. I still...

    Just broke my first Craftsman tool

    I actually have several of the same Craftsman screwdriver that I paid a buck or less for over the years. I just have to find them. I used that screwdriver more than all my other tools combined. You can't see in the picture, but the tip DID fail. The end looks like gumby! I'd been meaning to get...

    Just broke my first Craftsman tool

    Wan using it as a mini pry bar to bend a tab of thin metal on a storage rack and it just snapped in half. Of Course it does this just a few days after my local Sears shuts down. I've used the hell out of this screwdriver almost every single day for the past 6 or so years. I always keep it in my...

    Need Help in Selecting a 2 - 3 Ton Engine Hoist

    When did you get it for 140? I just bought the same one for $179 with coupon on Friday. Haven't even opened the boxes yet, so maybe I could get an extra $40 back. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    Maglite refurb

    I used to carry my 5D when I was a bouncer to help "******" unwelcome guests outside. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    Maglite refurb

    I upgraded one of my 4D mags to LED many years ago. It was easily twice as bright as the high beams in my Toyota Previa. Unfortunately the LED chip broke off and it stopped working. I looked for years for a replacement LED bulb with no luck. The few I did find weren't even as bright as the...

    Anyone sell empty socket kit cases?

    Maybe that's why my boss keeps EVERYTHING. Anyone need any single used sneakers, boots, or gloves? Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    Anyone sell empty socket kit cases?

    Didn't think people bought those. Just recently threw out a few dozen of them at work. :-( Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    Help: Vintage Snap On ratchet modification F-710B

    I wish I had an answer for you, but I have some advice instead. I would advise you not to post the same exact message in 3 different areas of the same forum. Duplicate posts can get you flagged as a spammer or banned from some forums. Not sure how strict they are about it on this one, but I can...

    Saving garage space - Putting bathroom under stairs

    There's a half bath under the stairs in my house. Once you're in the bathroom there's plenty of headroom (and tons of storage space too), but I hit my head (usually very hard) almost every time I go in or out of it. I'm about 6'4". Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    I'm looking for an electrical component...

    I may actually have a few of those in one of the many huge bags filled with thousands of parts from several RS's that closed. Do you need that exact part? I could keep an eye out for it when I get around to sorting everything out. I'm sure there's tons of similar replacements around if you don't...

    Recommend good electrical tape

    What I bought was electrical tape. I think that poster was trying to be funny, but failed hard. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk

    Recommend good electrical tape

    Was that meant to be a joke? I'm ashamed to admit TWICE I bought electrical tape from HF, and both times every roll was completely useless. If you hold a lighter to the tape until it starts melting the tiny bit of adhesive that's on it will ooze out and get your hands all sticky, and MAYBE the...

    Recommend good electrical tape

    I made the mistake of buying HF electrical tape. It doesn't stick to ANYTHING. Literally, nothing. It's almost as if they forgot to actually put any adhesive on the plastic at all. Sent from my XT1565 using Tapatalk
