But he can still get great deals on overdrive stuff at Lowe's. Sadly, I think the $100 off on the big set is gone l.
That's a nice set to have. I bought one, but I wish I had snagged at least a couple so I would have them in both locations.I really could have used this set today to get this tiny little T-20 TORX screw out of the leaking oil tube on my EcoDiesel. My 1/4" TORX socket hit the AC suction line. I guess I shoulda ordered this first. When I first saw it I thought "I'll never need that"
MAN!
Lowe's still sells them for delivery. Not at give away prices, but reasonable. $55
Interested in anymore like new v series stuff I got ?A couple more arrivals
I'm looking for a few more things. I'll send you a message of what I'm looking for.

Lance, I got you. I have a set listed on Facebook Marketplace. We can work out shipping/payment details along with a GJ discount. https://www.facebook.com/share/1SkeBvaepM/I'm looking for these-
Wow thank you! I bought the 1/4 and 3/8 from rword last night. If you're willing to split the 1/2 let me know

That’s a great set. Good fitment on fasteners. I used them to replace the door latch on my wife’s Mini. came in super handy on the two torx bolts to release the window.Arrived today
How’s the quality ?
I'd say it's decent. Not mind blowing or anything. I'll write up a detailed summary of what I think of it after I get some use out of in a week or two.

Anyone tried to swap V series flex heads heads or handles with a proto precision 90? They both have a similar fork design.
I recall someone talking about that in the 'other' V-Series thread.
Craftsman V Series...
This is more of a ramble than anything... I don't go to Lowes often unless there's a certain brand I'm looking for (rare). Their target market is Johnny homeowner, meaning it's mainly a junk mart with a poor tool section (just my opinion). Regardless, I was driving by and remembered reading...

Love this symmetrical design of your build Lance, keep it going.
I see some “Overdrive” stuff made it in there too…I don’t mind it.
We should start a list of “rare” V-Series tools…

Thank you!
Yeah the OD stuff is nice and I like the 6 point box ends.
As far as rare -
I don’t know what is rare for real and what is real on GJ.

It’s still out there…
It is! I think I should be able to put it all together in a month or two. A few things are even cheaper on Amazon. ACE Hardware has a bunch of stuff too, but it is mostly at MSRP. We shall see
I didn’t see it in your new toolbox pics, and if it wasn’t originally on your list of V-series tools to acquire, I’d strongly recommend the reversible ratcheting wrench sets.
CMMT87375V for the metric set.
CMMT87350V for the SAE.
They have a great feel, in my opinion. The ratchet mechanism is smooth with not a lot of back drag. I liked them so much, I turned to FACOM (467 series) to fill in some sizes the Craftsman set excludes. The FACOM wrenches have a few differences, like a circlip on the ratchet end, and an anti-slip profile on the open end.

As I said earlier?, I only have the 12-point V combo wrenches in standard and metric, but I am totally looking forward to Lance completing his collection of the entire V line of tools- mainly because I have no idea what the product line consisted of

You can search for "V-Series" on the Craftsman website and it shows 50 different items.
Stay tuned!

Yes Lance….follow the ways of ways of the GJ members…you must buy these all…all of them. Pay no attention to your bank account…those fools at the Bank know nothing about the power of the dark side...I mean....the V-Series...
Ahem...right...
Seriously tho, these are amazing, go buy them:

Well, I caved in to the DARK side and ordered them from eBay.
Imagine my surprise when I got the shipping notice and the seller is listed as-
blackanddecker
100 Passmore Ln
Jackson, Tennessee 38305-6925
United States
UPS has the item in Middletown, PA so I suppose they have a warehouse there?
Interesting, to me at least, that SBD is still selling brand new V-Series tools on eBay

Damnit, I know that. But it's not the same thing to look at stock pics on their website!
I want to see the entire V-series collection in one GJ member's toolbox. Ok, JK, but I'm rooting for you to complete the collection. As I said, I have only the metric and inch combo wrenches. But I have so many tools that I totally didn't need those. But they are just the most glorious wrenches!
