Hey Guys, I was intrigued about these ratchets after I read they were made by Apex and essentially a finer tooth version of the Sata/Gearwrench 120 position ratchets and they have quick release. If you add a smaller filler item you can use the $5 off $50 code for email sign ups...

Hey Guys, Home Depot and Amazon has had the 80300P set on sale for this price for a little while now. Mine just showed up yesterday and I'm really happy with it. No skipped sizes and the 120xp ratchet blew me away. It's really nice...

Hey guys, I was slowly putting together a second craftsman tool set out of garage sale and thrift store finds. The appeal of that process wore off and I just decided to buy a complete tool set for my basement work area. I found this set at lowes and it seems to be in line with black friday...

Hey Guys, I just took a new position at work which allows me to turn a wrench instead of sit behind a computer all day. :thumbup: One of my first projects is to organize our job box that I along with several other co-workers will take on service calls. Most of the hardware we work on requires...

Hey Guys, I picked up a Meyer Hydraulics Engine hoist today at a yard sale. I'm not sure on the vintage but it older has an oval brass ID tag and is built like a tank. I tested it out by jacking it up 6 inches or so and then hung on it. It seemed to work good so I struck a deal with the seller...

So I live and work by Milwaukee, WI. On my way home from work I have a thrift store in route. Being a young guy with a new house, love for vintage items, and not a whole ton of money I stop just about every day to see if anything good is there. Tonight I scored two micrometers. One is a 3-4 inch...

Hey Guys, Does anybody else have this? I bought one to do work on my 130 year old foundation and other misc projects in the future. I just spent the last 3 hours attempting to get the damn thing together. The directions are junk, the hardware is junk, and I think even the "line up here arrows"...

Does anybody have the proform 66514 dampner puller/installer? I have a 50 off 100 coupon from picking up the parts for my brake job from advance auto that I need to burn by the end of the month. Since my old school balancer tool has been MIA for about 5 years now I thought maybe I'd upgrade to...

Hey guys, I got a bunch of free bats of insulation from a guy at work that I was going to put in my attic, but I decided to blow it in up there and I'm putting this stuff in the garage. My garage was built in the early 1900's and has real 2x4's for the wall studs. How much fiberglass...

Today for work a Vendor came in and took my department out for lunch. It was my turn to pick so I went with Famous Dave's. I always enjoy looking at their vintage wall memorabilia(the waitresses aren't bad either). Today I noticed the walls, they have everything covered in what looks to be rough...

Has anybody ever extended their floor jack? As in making it longer, not adding a block of wood for more height. I picked up the Arcan Jack from Costco today. It seems really nice and I was excited about the low profile design, but with the overhang on my cars I still have to drive the car up on...

Extreme Garage Opener Hey Guys, Not sure if this is the right section. Menards has a 1/2 HP "Extreme Garage" chain drive garage door opener on sale for 88 dollars after rebate right now. Does anybody have experience with this unit? I just bought a house a month ago and I'm tired of messing...

Hey guys, So I'm going to be closing on a house in two weeks here(knock on wood). One thing I need to get completed is getting a new septic system installed. I met out at the property with the installer last night and he took some elevations. The pipe comes out where the old holding tank is, I...

Hey guys, I have an offer in on a house right now. It's about 3 times as much living space as I need but only has 1/5th of the garage space I need. Oh well, it seems like a really good investment. Anyways... The garage is a small 2 car. It's 22 feet deep and about 18 feet wide. I have two...

Hey guys, So I was at an auction this weekend and picked up a nice wilton machinist's vice for 35 dollars. They had a couple of post vise's that i just ignored. Upon researching the wilton I ran across some post vise info saying that they are very useful and hold up to a beating better than a...

Hey guys I picked up a model 1175 at Fleet Farm yesterday. I need a decent pistol grip gun to grease my 62 corvette. The car has 22 grease fittings on the front end!!! I haven't been able to dig up much on Legacy but the gun looks really nice. There was no "made in" anywhere on the box, gun...
