    Pole shed heaved. . . How can I "save" this?

    A couple few years ago our pole shed heaved pretty high. Is there a good way to save this or not really? I can't remember the dimensions of it off the top of my head right now and I'm at work, but I want to say it's like a 30X40 or 30X50. It heaved all around, doesn't seem to have hurt the...

    Blue Point tool

    One of the guys at work, the shop forman had this in his toolbox. Somehow he ended up showing it to me and I've actually used it a few times for different fasteners. I work in a repair shop, mostly cars, but just about anything that we think we can repair. I noticed it said Blue point on the...

    Troubles with torpedo heater

    I have a Master torpedo propane heater that my girlfriend got me Christmas before this last Christmas. Well this winter is the first time I've actually wanted to use it due to it getting pretty cold out. I went and bought a 100 pound cylinder. It'll run good for a short amount of time and then...

    Bog Manufacturing sockets

    I had these sockets given to me. I don't know much about them. I've seen hex drive sockets posted on GJ before, but I can't find the posts now of coarse. Some of them say "BOG MFG CO CHICAGO USA" on them. Then some of them just have star symbols on both sides of the socket size. There's one 12...

    Common taps & dies?

    I've been looking a bit at tap and die sets. I tried Googling a couple different phrases, but couldn't come up with much. So I've been wondering, what are some common tap and die sizes and thread pitches for the automotive industry, okay maybe that's not a great question. By make/brand maybe...

    Half moon, offset, & S wrenches

    So I was thinking of picking up a set of half moon and a set of "S" wrenches. There are times at work when they would really come in handy. However, I don't want to spend a ton of money on them. I looked on Amazon at the Sunex and Gearwrench branded wrenches. The reviews on them weren't great...

    Does anyone make what I'm looking for?

    Hey guys, I've been browsing Amazon and EBay the last few hours for some torx bits. More specifically a T25 and T30, non tamper resistant. Either impact or non impact (though preferably impact) and 3/8 drive. I can find 1/4 drive bits in those sizes but not 3/8. I know a adapter from 3/8 to 1/4...

    Anyone run a repair shop out of their garage/shop?

    Hey Fellas, I'm a full time automotive technician. Although I make decent money from my job, I only work four days a week. I get three days off in a row and a little extra money wouldn't hurt. I have a separate set of tools at home in the garage. Anyways, do any of you do side work from home...
