Just curious, what hood is that on your car? I like that very much. I'm not a fan of the factory hood on my '07.

Likewise. I wish I could come up with the scratch to buy another set.

I have one also, was a gift from a friend. It's by far my favorite and I carry it every day.

I'd get a thickness gauge and match the thickness and type of metal. I don't weld but my understanding is you'll want to weld to the same types of metal. For cleaning them up and cutting I'd suggest a fine wire wheel on the bench grinder and then a cutoff wheel on a die grinder. The die...

Yeah they're both plated. I think mine looks a little different. What's driving me nuts is I search the model # on mine and nothing turns up.

Not really but here are the pics of my wrench.

At the suggestion of a friend of mine I have been going through my tools and creating a spreadsheet with descriptions and part numbers. I came across an adjustable wrench that I can't find any info on other than the obvious. It's an Armstrong 15" adjustable wrench. Has the model 28-715 on it...

I'm going to go check it out. It would make a good Christmas present for a friend of mine.

I saw this box at my local store on Saturday. While the idea of a 41" top and bottom box is appealing, at 319 I don't know if it's worth it. The metal is incredibly thin. I don't know that I'd feel comfortable putting air tools or heavy wrenches or hammers in it. Maybe I'm being too critical of...

Re: what did you do in your garage today? I found a way to mount my 3 drawer craftsman middle chest under my workbench. It was sitting on top and took up way too much valuable real estate. I didn't take any build pics because it was pretty simple. I cut the ply wood box to size, I used 19/32"...

I have one of those cabinets. I use it for spray paint, lawn chem, etc. I painted it red and black. I wasn't a big fan of the beige.

I bought the 12 pc nut driver set (made in USA) for $12.99 and the retractable hose reel for $39.99. I've been wanting a retractable reel for some time now and I figured it wasn't a bad deal.

I'm about as far south as you go, near 130th and Torrence Ave, by the Ford plant where they make the Taurus.

Need a like button for this.

Oh, that's insane. I wouldn't take gift cards, I'd want a comparable item at the same or similar price. Like I told the guy at Sears the other day, it's not about the money it's about wanting the tool cabinet for the advertised price.
