This is my road chest that I bought in 1984. I was into motocross hence the stickers. I also like beer and Sammy Hagar so... A Cabo Wabo
visit seemed appropriate. I went to Mexico and Vegas locations. I know, pathetic.

Some Mac air tools, a cart I got about 2 years ago from the local Snap on dealer, my creeper and some more screwdrivers on the cart.

Here is a MAC SS10 cheap razor blade scraper, at the time I thought it was a cheap gimmick for the deaer to promote their tools, but 30 years later it is still in my box and used.

do you want to revive an older MAC thread?

MAC tools - show us your MAC tools!

It seems to me that MAC is somewhat unpopular on GJ (except for toolboxes). As with each company, there is good, there is bad. Same as with our current world. Lets concentrate on good... Lets share our MAC tools. I decided to post it here instead of the vintage tool thread as even though...

I think there is one for Cornwell too

Correction Private Lugnutz pointed me to the existence of an earlier thread :
There is an earlier thread on MAC tools - please forward them to the original thread

This is a story that is sweet yet bittersweet in nature, the first part is the sweet part and the last part of the story is the bittersweet part. During the Great depression of the 1930's when money was very hard to come by; seven men in a sleepy small town in Sabina, Ohio got together and...

Couple of Matco's, PGJ20 20" pliers and a RPB1616AM is the pry bar.

The markings are gone but I think it is a Matco SDMR0106B series screwdriver

This empty box popped up on Ebay and I grabbed it quickly to hold my growing MAC 1/4" tools collection. The box even has the B26M part number sticker on it still!

This Cornwell 1/4" drive ratchet was mixed in with a Craftsman set that I bought today

That ratchet is a huge improvement over the one that came in the set. One of my favorites. Looks to be a desirable S-K extension as well.

One of my favorites too. The selector can be switched with a thumb but doesn't switch on accident during rapid use.

I'd like to find a selector for that ratchet.....I also heard that the kits were no longer available

I called MAC and asked about kits for the MR, XR and VR series ratchets. They are indeed discontinued and if you need a kit or warranty for any discontinued ratchet they will give you a credit of the last retail cost of that ratchet that they show, which for the MR5 was like $60 toward another ratchet or tool. Not sure if I had to send in to them or they would pay the freight to send my ratchet back. So when those ratchets fail you no longer get a new ratchet or repair kit but a partial credit toward a new style Mac ratchet or maybe even just a credit toward another MAC tool. Kinda ***** but better than nothing.

Picked up this poor ole beat up MAC

I'm going to pop off the handle see about turning it into a Phillips.
I can use another long #2 Phillips.....

A couple recent Mac aquisitions, 3/8" dr set and 1/4" dr Mac Sabina set, missing only the period correct universal joint and the correct metal box. A incomplete set of orange screwdrivers missing the #1 and #2 screwdrivers.
