I see a lot of negative comments about these. I was working on my brakes last week. My hands are covering in greasy grimy gopher guts and I need to change my socket. The ratchet I'm using is not quick release and I have a heck of a time getting the socket changed. With my quick release I...

So Friday I spent about eight hours cleaning my garage. I only had a couple of trash bags full when I got done and a small stack of cardboard. Everything else just needed a home. Things really seem to get out of hand fast. It doesn't take long before I don't have room to work on anything...

I have a lot of socket sets, but many are incomplete. My wife offered to get me a new set for Fathers Day. I picked up this 165 piece Craftsman set at lunch today, on sale at Kmart. At first glance I am not real impressed. I remember Craftsman when it was the cat's meow. I don't see these...

Pretty modest set-up, but should fill my needs for a while. Believe it or not, this is a big step up from what I have used in the past! I don't have a lot of power available to the garage just yet, so much bigger was out of question right now anyway. Got a HF coupon in the mail. 2HP 8 gallon...

I use a lot of Harbor Freight tools, some folks hate them, I don't mind them. I am working on my Gold Wing Monday night and come to find out my 3/8" set of sockets has no 12mm? I don't mean it is missing, I mean it does not include one, goes from 11mm right to 13mm. So I look at my 1/4" drive...

I know this is pretty small for some of you guys, but it replaces my old two drawer on my tool bench. Ball bearing slides, I like it for $29. Boy that old craftsman wrench could use a cleaning!

I was just in Kmart and bought a nice set of Craftsman screwdrivers for less than $20. I think it was a 17 piece set. I am so tired of suffering with cheap screwdrivers, it seems imposable to find a decent Phillips tip. I hope these are the Craftsman screwdrivers of old.

I have always been a shade tree mechanic out of necessity, best I ever had was a shed or a dirt floor barn. Finally got the pennies together to have a "real" garage! I don't have a finished picture of the outside, but you get the idea. The inside is wired and I have a couple of lights up...

Poured concrete in my 18x24 garage last Friday. How long should I allow before I paint it?
