    Vintage S-K Tools

    Here's a family photo of my S-K adjustable wrench collection from 4" to 16". I have a double on the 10" but no 14". None came from the same vendor and it took a couple years to get all of them at semi-reasonable prices.

    Double box end ratcheting wrench set?

    My nephew uses the Duratech XL set with the box on one end and the ratcheting box on the other in an Infinity dealership. He loves them. They are a smidge longer than the Gearwrench gearbox ones, and that's ok with him. He had a problem with the 14mm, and they sent him another one after he sent...

    Easco tools?

    Here's my EASCO combo sets from the family of EASCO, NAPA and Master Mechanic. The 7/16 is Master Mechanic, and all are 12 point except the 3/4. It looks like the 13/16 could use a cleanup. I got all of them from different vendors at one of the Carlisle shows last year. I only have the combo's...

    Is this joiner worth $75

    It *looks* like a 6". It needs a blade guard, which as said could be DIY'd. It might need bearings (easily found) , maybe a belt, can't tell if it needs a belt guard or if the motor needs help. If it runs, it is well worth the asking price IMHO.

    Garage Sound system options?

    There's probably a battery (or capacitor) on the main board that powers the memory and it needs replaced.

    Harry J. Epstein Day 2024

    Order #6841. I ordered the Wilde pry bars after seeing someone else's order as I wanted them and they were less than either the Craftsman or Channelock sets. Thanks to Jori and the Epstein's staff. Warrensville 5/32" Chainsaw File (11518), 7/32 Chainsaw File (bcs805), Wilde 4" Handled Pry...

    Westinghouse Electric Pressure Washer? - WPX3400e

    I believe most of the cleaning action is done with the flow (gpm) not so much the pressure (psi), so it may take a little longer with the electric model. No experience with that particular model, but the reviews are mostly positive for "smallish" jobs. . My mom has a small electric unit and it...

    Vintage S-K Tools

    @four.cycle, thanks for the correction, yes 5120-**. Thanks for the HUMVEE tidbit, did not know that. Here are the SK NSN wrench sets I am aware of, but there are probably more. I only have the first 2 sets, the others were Ebay picture grabs. 5120-00-103-9782 metric short offset DBE 8 piece...

    Vintage S-K Tools

    Hello, I just completed my second set of metric short DBEs. I originally found the 18mm-20mm wrench, then found a few more. Before I completed the set I found a complete set with the green SK roll. Then I still had to finish the original set just because I couldn't have a partial set laying...

    Portable Generator Project

    Also check the brushes if it has them. I picked up a Troy-Bilt 6250 running watts for cheap from Lowe,s and it only needed brushes to be putting out voltage again.

    Retro fit laser crosshair

    https://www.woodcraft.com/products/drill-press-laser Probably available from other sources, but I have this one and it works very well, uses a line instead of points so it compensates for different heights. BTW, my DP is also a 17-900 Delta made in China.

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    @willy, thanks for the quick reply. It appears the half nut pivots into position against the threaded rod and is held by a long spring . My chances of finding a replacement part are probably very slim.

    Barcalo Buffalo Tools

    Looks like I actually have 5 to go (1/4, 5/16, 11/32, 1-1/16 and 1-1/4), but the 11/32 might be tough to find. Thanks for the encouragement. I passed on the smallest short dbe at Carlisle last fall as I did not want to start another set. If I bought it I would be half way there. Which are...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    I just bought this 3.5" Grand Vise Master for $15. It's in decent shape but but it's missing the quick release trigger, the spring, and I am not sure what else is missing as there is nothing to hold the jaw from moving. Can anybody help me out?
