    What is the size of the bb in a craftsman ratchet?

    See topic. Specifically, a craftsman vq-44807, using a 43424 rebuild kit. I launched the new and old bb into orbit, and I need to order some more. Thanks in advance.

    Help with an air compressor auto drain

    Ok, I finally got to lowe's and got the parts I need. One side, I got working perfectly. The second, is a different size. I believe it is 1/8", because the 1/4" fitting will just slide on without even engaging the threads. i can't seem to find a 1/8" fitting anywhere. I tried using the one that...

    http://www.lowes.com/pd_25078-104-A-4___?productId=3133381&pl=1&Ntt=1%2F4%22+compression+fitting Would that work? Would it hold the poly line on?

    Help with an air compressor auto drain

    I appreciate those suggestions, but I need to install the auto drain somehow, and the T fitting needs to connect to poly. Or I buy a new t fitting.

    Help with an air compressor auto drain

    Hey all, I messed up my install of the HF auto compressor drain ( http://www.harborfreight.com/automatic-compressor-drain-kit-68244.html ), on my new HF compressor ( http://www.harborfreight.com/air-tools/air-compressors/21-gal-25-hp-125-psi-cast-iron-vertical-air-compressor-61454.html ). I...

    Snap-On Tools VS Harbor Freight Tool Shootout.

    I'm shocked, shocked I tell you, that the HF wasn't as well made as the snap on. Oh well, the HF still helped me break very stubborn suspension bolts with no drama.

    Broke first socket ever today

    I don't think I've ever broken a socket, which is surprising. All I have is craftsman sockets, and HF impacts. I DID, however, break two HF impact wobble extensions removing the rear strut bolts on my STI. They both snapped right at the end . I'm pretty sure I had them pushed in fully so they...

    Lets see your shop computer...

    Nice setups so far. I just bought an optiplex 760 or something similar from a public auction. I literally got it for $3 including tax, from my local gov't. It's a core 2 duo, so nothing fancy, but it runs windows 7 fine. I have it connected to an old monitor on my workbench (something I would...

    The straw that broke the camel's back tool shelf collapse.

    As someone helping my parents clean out their house, I would seriously lessen your "collection" before it overtakes everything. Better to cut it down to a few choice tools.

    Looking for a 1/4" deep metric socket set

    You guys kicked *** with a shitload of recommendations. I probably have more than I know what to do with, lol. I am leaning towards the ko-ken, mostly 'cause I want to try those out, but that snap on deal that four cycle posted is nice, too. All praise four cycle, king of ebay tool auctions...

    Looking for a 1/4" deep metric socket set

    You guys are great, excellent suggestions! I was already thinking about a koken spark plug socket, so I might pick up the deep set to check it out. i do have a few gearwrench ratcheting wrenches that I love, so those are a good option as well.
