    Malco Eagle Grip pliers

    Has anybody used these before? I’m looking for some more vise grip style pliers and the reviews of the Irwin stuff have left me cold. If I’m going to end up with Chinese imports I may as well go to HF and save my money.

    Slide Hammer ID

    Please ignore the fact I have the puller on backwards, it won’t fit in my drawer unless I flip it around. Can anyone help me put an ID on this one? I got it from my wife’s grandfather’s shop. It looks like it spent most of its life with the slide at the base stored in the drawer. It feels like...

    Ratchet Upgrades

    Is there a list or database on here of ratchets that can be upgraded by just swapping out the internals i.e. like the SK DT drop in kits? I want to saw some craftsman and GW products could be upgraded with Matco internals, but I could be off about that. Thanks all.

    Does anyone here know who the OEM was for these? Or if there’s a suitable equivalent out there that I can add to my stack? I want to add another drawer or two and gain some more storage space.

    Proto Precison 90 experiences

    Has anyone used the Proto 90 tooth ratchets for some time? If so what did you think of them? And to follow that up, where is the place to find a deal on them? A lot of places I've looked at online are almost the same price at the Mac Axxis it's based on. If that will be the case, I'll buy the...

    I want to get my roll away, intermediate, and top chest all on one key. It’s a craftsman 41 inch set, so 6 locks total. Is there a company selling keyed alike sets for this kind of project?

    Stubby combo wrenches

    I’m wanting to add a set of stubby wrenches to the arsenal and I wanted the groups collective thoughts on them. Naturally I prefer USA made, but I’m open minded as long as it’s not ChiCom. In years past I would’ve just gotten a Craftsman set and been done with it, but that’s not an option...

    Long handled ratchets

    Does anyone here have any opinions about long handled 3/8 and 1/4 ratchets? I could likely live without the 1/4” but I might as well be thorough with it. What makes and models did you go with and where did you find the best deals? I’d prefer American made if possible, but certainly not above...

    Got a 3/4”, 13/16”, and 7/8” Flank Drive 12 point sockets circa 1967-1969 that I’d like to complete the set. If anyone has some for sale I’m certainly interested. If I’m honest I need the sizes below that more than the bigger sizes. Thanks guys.

And does anyone have any experience with WrightDrive vs the other high end 12 point systems out there(Looking at you...

    Identifying an old socket

    Good afternoon guys. Got this out of a box lot of tools and ran it through the cleaning gamut to see if I could uncover any other markings. It’s some kind of hex drive tool that is unfamiliar to me. I think I saw something similar on Alloy Artifacts, but it’s slipped my mind since I last saw it...

    Fuller Pipe Wrenches

    Does anyone have any opinions about Fuller branded pipe wrenches? I’m cleaning out my in laws barn and shop and found a complete set from 8” or 10” through 18” in the workbench. They looked and felt ok, but definitely wasn’t a Rigid. Any history or opinions would be greatly appreciated.

    Impact socket organization

    I’m working on making my toolbox more efficient and neat. What is everyone doing for impact socket storage and organization? I’m thinking I’ll just go with the Hansen peg racks like my hand sockets, but I’m not sure if they’ll fit on them. Plus I’m always looking for ways to make it better. Thanks.

    Craftsman Phillips head socket bit replacement

    I was using one of my #2 Phillips sockets and managed to cam the bit end pretty good. Is it possible to replace the bits in these sockets? And if so where do I find the replacement parts? It’s old Made In USA Craftsmen, so I’d just as soon not replace it if I can help it. Thanks.

    Long time lurker

    Hey guys, Like the title says, I’ve been using this site for research and reviews for sometime now, but I finally decided to take the plunge and join. My parents used to lay me down for naps as a baby with the Craftsman catalog and dad would keep me entertained at the local mall by letting me...
