I bought a craftsman air compressor a while back. It was a floor model clearance item and didn't come with a manual. Where can I download one?

Is a 3 gallon oil lubes Cman air compressor suitable for operating a pneumatic flooring nailer?

I'm looking to get one of these mostly for autobody cavity inspection but I'm sure it'll have plenty of other uses. Anyway, I want one with a nice thin scope. The ones Griot's and HF sell seem to have a scope with too wide a diameter. Anyone know of a good one? Also what else should I be looking...

This will make my new trunk box. No, I don't smoke but I think it's cool anyway!

I was repairing a fuel leak on my diesel Mercedes today and the small black free HF flashlight that I was using fell into a container of diesel. It was completely submerged. It still works fine! :)

I bought one of these today on clearance for $14.99. The head is floppy. Is this how it's supposed to be?

Bought this the other day - already posted. Anyway, I must have too much time on my hands but I decided to de-rust and paint it. I used naval jelly and a wire wheel and then applied a couple of coats of light blue Rustoleum Hammertone paint.

I also bought this yesterday among other things. It doesn't work well-skips, binds etc. I can't figure out how to open it up. Any ideas?

I bought this jack yesterday. Does anyone know the vintage of this thing? I'd like to repaint it but want to use a period correct paint. A hammertone would be nice but I'm not sure if it would be appropriate. When did hammertones first appear?

I just picked up the 5 piece gearwrench sets for $15. I avoid Taiwan/china tools like the plague but choices and value are unfortunately limited with gearwrenches. Funny thing was that the SAE set was Taiwan and the metric China. The Taiwan had slightly better chrome. I'll keep the metric in my...

I bought a Williams supererector 3 foot long ratchet today for $12!!!!!! What is this thing? What was it's use? Don't have pics yet. I know, I know... :needpics:

Who made the old - about ten years ago Husky Pro full polish combo wrenches? They are really nice.

I picked these up last week for a whopping $5.50. The SO ratchet is frozen and has a broken selector lever. What can be done about this ratchet if I were to bring it to the tool truck guy for the warranty? Would he fix or replace it? Does any one know the vintage of this SO ratchet. I already...

What can I cover my garage door windows with so as to get light in but keep prying eyes out? I was thinking about spraying some of that frosted glass stuff on the windows. Does that hold up against moisture and condensation?

All I have to say is awesome. Such a pleasure to use. It's so much easier to know when the socket is properly placed on the plug and yes it has a strong magnet. :bowdown:

Is there any way to hook one of those meters to a subpanel?

This was just given to me by a friend's father. He used to work as a machinist at Dresser-Rand. He bought it used a long tome ago from another machinist who worked there.

I picked these up at a hardware store yesterday. They are all NOS and were sitting in bins at the bottom of some shelves and long forgotten. :bounce: Included: 3 Plomb 3/8" t handles 2 Snap On 3/8" T handles 1 Armstrong 3/8" T handle 1 Wright 3/8" T handle 2 Plomb 3/8" drive universal 11/16"...

OK, I'm not really into tractors like my GFs brother-in-law but I smelled a good deal here. I bought this oiler at the flea today for $3. Check out this ebay link! There are 3 listed in the $74-89 range! http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p167.m38.l1313&_nkw=international+harvester+oil+can

Picked this up at the flea market today for $30. It's missing the top handle and has been repainted over the original krinkle finish. Otherwise all drawers open and close smoothly and felt liners are in nice shape. Where can I get a new handle? :headscrat
