I picked up C1 vise that I thought I'd sell for parts several years ago. I guess with social distancing and playing at home teacher I finally decided to tear into it. I assume this vise took a fall at some point as the back where the end cap would attach is damaged and some tech screwed holes...

I need a torque wrench for rotating the tires on my side by side. Heading to Menards later and my local store has a few of these in stock...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B073K8VGTH/?tag=atomicindus08-20 This is bare tool only so no track. That's $70 cheaper than other online retailers and $80 cheaper than the corded version of the Makita track saw - SP6000J bare tool. I'm not sure if this represents new pricing as the AWS equipped...

My wife wants a cordless wet-dry vac for snow melt puddle management in the garage this winter. We'd like it to be light enough so my boys can carry it up to the kayak trailer at our cabin in the summer and clean out the residual water after a day on the lake. It's a steep, rocky "driveway" so a...

https://toolcraze.net/new-makita-12v-cxt-cordless-vacuum-lc08zw-cleaner-lc09z-inflator-mp100dz/ Glad to see they introduced an inflator but bummed it is 12V. With all of their press about one battery for everything (subcompact, 18V & 36V) I was hoping they'd make it 18V to go along with their...

I think I recall a thread about cable Damascus here on Garage Journal. I did a search and found a couple of mentions of it but couldn't find the thread I remember. It's possible Damascus was spelled differently. At any rate... I have a 50' to 60' section of 3/4" cable I removed from our...

I don't have a Home Depot within two hours drive so I've largely ignored discussions about their tools. But I keep hearing in other threads "I wish [insert Milwaukee, Makita, Dewalt...] made an inflator like the Ryobi. I'd like to get an inflator and an impact wrench that run on same battery. I...

Shopping around for a bit driver ratchet and found this on Acme. They call it a 1/2" drive in the title but in the description they say 1/4" square and 1/4" bit. Then under specifications they say 1/2" drive again...

Designing a new garage and I'd like to pick out a four post lift that can hold our side by side or a vehicle. Need to get one picked out so I can decide on side wall heights and truss configuration. I'm not sure how often I'll switch back and forth between storing car and UTV but I'm curious to...

Any comments on this kit or the impact driver specifically? Current promotion at Acme has the kit with a free additional 5.0 battery. https://www.makitatools.com/products/details/XT269M https://www.makitatools.com/Products/details/XDT13Z I know this impact will be more powerful, adjustable...

I'm looking for black 6x6 joist hanger. Or any sort of decorative joist hanger. Joists I'm using are 5 1/2" wide but 5 7/8" tall so I'd prefer to not use a top flange mount type so I can set the top of the joist flush with top of the perpendicular joist it will attach to. The stock top flange...

I'm likely going to upgrade from my Bosch 12V and Hitachi 18V cordless systems by spring. It is down to Milwaukee vs Makita at this point. I currently have the Bosch 12V single hand reciprocating saw and use it a lot on my two wooded lots. I also use it for trail maintenance in our national...

I was on Ebay looking for a bare tool PS41 and noticed the PS42 (brushless) is available. Read some reviews and watched a YouTube video and it doesn't seem like there is a huge performance gain over the PS41. Was wondering if anyone out there has both and has any comments? I have an aging...

[EDIT] I can't seem to get my picture issue sorted out. I'll repost or update thread later.

I have a RV plugged into a 50 amp electric post at our lease. May be moving RV off site later this week & need 110v receptacle to run some power tools. I'm on my phone & on a spotty hotel WiFi connection & having a hard time searching this. It looks like I can get a 50 amp to 30 amp adapter...

Went and dug my bifocals out and started typing in various possibilities for this patent number and I can't find anything on them. Set of seven metric for $50 for sale locally. I guess I don't need an ID so much as want to know if it's a decent deal.

Replaced an arbor in a table saw today and ended up having to grind down a cheap 15/16 socket to get the nut started. I think I have it tight enough but would like to go to a store with my calipers and see if something off the shelf will have a thin enough profile that I can double check it...

Just saw one of these at salvage yard. Guy wants $160. It's in decent shape but I didn't have hardened ball bearing. He was firm on price so I passed but said I'd research. My seven year old wants to make a knife "the old way". I do have a chunk of RR track but don't know if that's enough. On...

I need to mark some elevation lines over about 40' of sloping terrain. At this point of the project I only need to get close to level and mark some trees and ground with orange paint as a visual aid to decide about some site work. Are any of the Harbor Freight laser levels any good...

I have a chance to get the Bosch 12V drill, impact and PS11 and a couple of chargers and more batteries for a fair price. I really only "need" the impact driver and I could pick that up in bare tool form for much less than the trio of tools above but am wondering how useful that right angle...
