    Is the Craftsman 3/8 in. Drive Flex Head Teardrop Ratchet 12" worth buying?

    My DW says I have filled a shop with tools I don't use. However today she needed something repaired.....:) I like the top one.

    Best socket holder for portable tool bag?

    Thank you for all this info. I need two of these as well. As a DIY guy this is often the only place I know to look for info like this.

    Went by the Restore today -- Router and Jig Saw

    I have an old Black & Decker metal jig saw that's over 25 years old and still works. Great saws! Great find!

    What did you do "IN" your garage today?

    Went in to get a box to ship an E B sale. Does that count?

    Does your garage door fill the opening, or do you see the vinyl trim on the sides?

    My 10' doors cover the opening. You can't see light once the door is down. They overlap the 6x6.

    Best small engine

    Agree about the pump but can't beat a Honda in the small engine category IMHO.

    Cool but not enough space.

    Old drafting set

    I realize now they are not worth much however I thought the West Germany might be somewhat unique?

    If you could only buy one high-end ratchet. . .

    Impossible question is right. Do you use these professionally or as a DIY'er? Is this need vs want? Does shape or length matter? If it's just to turn a nut for someone who does not do it professionally or even every week then any quality older product should suffice should it not?

    Old drafting set

    I bought one of these at an estate sale recently it is an AMCO with 1330 stamped on the case made in West Germany. Would the "West Germany" marked on the tools make them more valuable?

    Old sockets/Few Wrenches

    Should have added at some point relocation will mean no more shop and a lot of stuff eventually needs to go not just tools! Very interested in learning more

    Old sockets/Few Wrenches

    D post 209 I understand the post count rule response. I was hoping to hear why E Bay? Larger audience? Am I right in assuming old tools don't sell for much?

    How to value our tools - had a close call.

    I should have added I would rather buy dog food than pay an insurance company!
