    Spark Plug Sockets- How Many is Too Much?

    If you"ve got a use for them, get them. It is amazing how a tool that is just a "little" different from a tool that for all purposes appears to be similar can work in a situation that the other tool won't work in.

    Spark Plug Sockets- How Many is Too Much?

    Do you have space in your tool box still? If so, you're golden! Always good to have the right tool on hand for a given situation! If you're full, time to consider a bigger box or to start weeding out the "nice to have but don't really need it" tools. My problem is that there isn't much that I...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    I posted this in the Wilton Thread but thought I'd do a quick post here as well. It's stamped 9-48 and is a C1 Vise. I got it from my Mother's house when she cleaned it out and Moved to Oregon at the age of 94! I figure it was used in the local Flying A station during the 40's 50's 60's and...

    Anyone have/use a Skewdriver?

    Yes, I've got one I purchased for the purpose of screwing my mailbox to the mounting arm. I didn't feel like messing with a stubby screw driver inside the box so I purchased this and it works like a charm! It's been 2 years, it sits in my tool box unused until the next darn kid with a baseball...
