Thank you for telling us. This Mad Max contraption was going to consume my "whatzit" brain resources for quite some time if you hadn't. :wtf:

It's been well over a decade... maybe closer to two, since they had zippers on the bags. My very first bag had them. The zipper deserved its bad reputation! The replacement bag I bought had buckles and velcro.

The fixed mount remains because it is a feature (imho), but they aggressively addressed the zipper issues. They attack any complaint with upgrades until the complaints fade away. Neat company.

I also have a Cyclone Rake. It is at least 25 years old. I bought it used 20 years ago. Have worn out 1 impeller and worn through 1 bag, and did a crazy wheel bearing update to the sealed units about 10 years ago. It has roughly 10 million miles on it. Fantastic machine that my wife abuses every...

When they delivered mine, they called me and verified my address and just asked me where I wanted it. I told them to drop it in front of the shop. When I got home, there it was, strapped to a pallet.

I keep a set of Williams hard handles and a set of Wiha drivers in my working box. I came from a lifetime of clear handle Craftsman use, and those two are the best "feel" for me. I slightly prefer the Wihas honestly, but sometimes you want hard handles. Either has a far superior drive tip than...

I also am sorry for your loss. A portion of my tools were my grandfather's tools, and a portion belonged to my uncle. The former, who was a lath and plaster contractor, taught me much of what I know about fabrication, tools, and making something from nothing. The latter, who was a diesel tech...

Fine. I ordered two pairs. You guys and your deals!

I went in as well. Perfect timing as I am about a pound from out.

THICK like cold peanut butter!:D
