    Chicago Pneumatic 1" impact parts

    Have a old 1" drive impact. One of the guys dropped it and broke the fitting in the end. Then tried to fix it with a e-z out and swelled the fitting in the end. Its ruined. Also the trigger spring was broken, and some kind of filter thing was disintegrated in the end. I think a trigger...

    Over $35k for a Snap on box with tools.

    I watch this auction site some, and have bought some equipment off it. https://www.purplewave.com/auction/180322/item/DP9585 I saw this box come up , and was kind of curious where it would end up, price wise. Evidently there are two guys out there with $35k that need a snap on box loaded up...

    Old Craftsman 3/8" drive ratchet yellow hard handle

    These aren't my ratchets, I'm not a collector. I thought I remembered these yellow hard handled ones as being rare. I saw them looking at craigslist up by st. louis, which is too far for me to drive for something I don't really want. I thought there might be a collector for them here though...

    Enough snap on handles to convert all your ratchets

    Government liquidation sale. 118 handles, threaded. I have no idea what I'd do with 118 of them, but some of you guys have enough ratchets personally to use them all up http://www.govliquidation.com/auction/view?auctionId=12343336&convertTo=USD

    Used Mac box drawer slides problems?

    I bought a used mac box- MB 1700 When I open the drawers all the way, the roller bearings and cages become exposed (barely 1/4"), making the end bearings fall out. Is there supposed to be a plastic piece in the end of the slide to stop it from extending too far? There was one gray plastic...

    Snap on anniversary box

    So I've been kind of looking to buy a big box, to consolidate my multiple boxes. This guy has a box for sale (3 hr drive for me, but I need a trip there for other things), and I've always liked the looks of this series (and its a big box). He says make a offer in the ad. I contacted him just...

    So I've got a toolbox problem

    I run a heavy equipment business (cranes obviously). I have a full time mechanic/ rigger/ driver, a couple other operators and me. I supply all the shop tools. I'm a sucker for buying tool boxes with tools, $500-$800 bucks. Off craigslist usually. I've got a few tool boxes, but now I've...

    Best smaller tool set in a case

    I had this 164 piece Craftsman Industrial set (USA made), until someone stole it. https://www.summitracing.com/parts/shc-929795 Wasn't our everyday tools, but it was super nice to throw in the truck to go work on equipment in the field. 1/4 and 3/8 drive, standard and metric, and wrenches to...

    Anyone disassemble a Wright 1" drive ratchet?

    I just got a Wright 1" drive set. Ratchet is a Wright 8400 I bought the set with the ratchet holding in forward, but slipping in reverse. I pulled the head out of it tonight and am wondering how the gear pawl comes out. You can see the teeth are sheared off the reverse pawl, but fine on...

    Why buy a bandsaw?

    This guy just built his own, with what looks like his scrap pile. Now he's selling it. I don't see myself ever having this kind of energy, but sometimes poor people got poor ways. Anyone willing to spend $125 just to see if it cuts straight...

    Guys got a little hard on the vise today

    This vise has been on the shop bench in our shop for over 10 years. (was here when I bought the shop, and when the previous owner had it) No maker label, its some kind of import. I have beat on, heated on, and generally abused it. We're a heavy equipment outfit, we're not working on delicate...

    Added a walker to my jacks

    Found this off Craigslist. Works fine. Seller says was owned by his grandfather, then his father at their repair shop. Father headed to old people's home, asked son to come get it b/c he couldn't bear to sell it. Son (40-50yrs old) tells dad he doesn't want it-and is going to sell it...

    mac tools customer service

    Had this mac ratchet for a long time. The selector lever disappeared, I've been switching it with a screwdriver or whatever's handy. I thought I'd fix it, so I looked for a kit online for it. I don't have a tool truck coming around. No luck on mac's website finding a part #, so I used...

    Abused Matco ratchet

    This has been on craigslist by me for a while. Wants $165 at a pawnshop. I'd say its been abused a little. Its 1/2" drive with like a 24"handle.
