    Canada Only Deals!

    I'd be curious to know the sell rate on the Osca hammers, you'll have folks like us who look at quality first, price second. Then you got everybody else just buying on price. Yes, I realize the hypocracy of that considering we're all going to PA to get a deal on something. =-)

    Canada Only Deals!

    I got a feeling they have a new supplier. They clearanced pro-point locking pliers a couple months back, and a few weeks ago a new pro-point locking pliers showed up. No visible difference between the working bits. Looks like they've revamped the logo and rubber grips on whatever has them...

    I wouldn't call it a hot deal, or a good hefty piece of rail at 44lbs for 24 inches (real light duty at 66lbs/yd), but one of those 'I never knew they carried this'. Railroad "anvil" at PA; I did pick one of these up, also on clearance, little hand vice...

    favorite drywall anchors

    My preference is the toggler. Available for various wall thicknesses. Came about these because of terrible drywall at a couple work locations, ez anchors would just pull right out. The metal butterfly, those **** just becuase of how they dig into the wall and the size of hole needed. I...

    Nice. And what little pricing I could find, it seems to be on par with Ariats, was expecting to see another hundred bucks more for these. At least theres two local places for them.

    Anyone recognize this water shutoff stem?

    Pry the washer off the original, that one on that plastic replacement is probably the same size, if not, the original washer might have a number on it. If not, easy matter to find a replacement washer.

    Makita Addiction Thread

    My Makita stuff has been around a long time. I've got a 7.2v drill/driver that put in thousands of screws and used as an occasional hammer, never broke. Still have it, but as you can imagine a 30 year old nicad battery isn't much more than a door stop now. I might repower it, was a great sized...

    Who makes good flush cutters?

    I got a set of channel lock flush cutters for work, used daily, forget how long, but I ended up with a handle snapping on them mid job. Overall I was satisfied with them, but don't cut electrical cords with them, I suspect that hastened their demise. #758. Being mid job I saw milwaulkee "flush...

    Country variations or alternates on tools

    Googling crosscut pliers, first time I've seen a linesman style plier with a crosscut. Not sure how I feel about those in a linesman variation given the heavier things I tend to cut with a conventional linesman.

    Weld a couple wheel hubs to the side, a hinged tongue on the front to keep it out of the way, now you got a trailer when photographed or looked at.

    Innova 7111 SDS PRO

    From what I am seeing, the 7111 is the consumer version. The 7111pro gets you the higher end software geared to... pro's. If it where me, and the price difference isn't big, get the pro. You won't regret getting more functions that you might need in the future vs the regret of hitting the...

    I bought a set of the workpro mini-pliers not that long ago, I do like 'em when I need something for a quick grab that doesn't need a whole lot of plier (or wrench).
