Ok, so I did my homework and took a look at the tools that would be stored in the new box(es). Keep in mind my old box has 6 deep drawers and 1 12" deep drawer which is used as a junk drawer (basically useless) Almost everything including wrenches sockets and screwdrivers fit well in the shallow...

It looks like more draws is what most people are recommending. M6Z - I don't think ill get much for my box so ill keep it even if it winds up in the basement as a storage box for my wood shop. As far as the upper box goes, i need the counter space. Dave- It's only me myself and I in my shop :)...

Hi All, I have outgrown my current 41" Rollcab and top box combo, and after spending too much of my free time on this site and others, I have narrowed it down to the HF US General offerings. I did look into other brands such as Husky and used tool truck boxes, but HF offers the best bang for...

I use the Joe's Racing inflator. Similar pricing/quality to Longacre. I am happy with it, wish I had bought it sooner. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MZ9BKGK/?tag=atomicindus08-20

If you are looking for a do it all saw - 12" compound slider. If you are only doing a certain type of job then a 10" saw or a non slider may work, but my opinion is that if you want a general purpose saw get the one that is the most flexible. Biggest issue with the 12" compound slider is the...

ZX3XT, Thanks for the information. Thats exactly what i needed to know. Oh well, I will have to look for another storage option.

I use the 100 tooth version similar to the below on my 12" Miter saw with great results on veneered plywood: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B002IPHGA2/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Supposed to be for veneered plywoods, melamine and laminates. Not cheap though.

Hi All, I am thinking about getting a HF 72" Roller Cabinet and would like to store the Quickjack BL7000SLX under it. I would need clearance between the wheels to be 70"X25"X3.5". Can someone tell me if the Quickjacks will fit?

The Proto sockets arrived today. They are really nice, better than i expected. I haven't gotten to use them yet, I will this weekend! I decided on a ratchet as well. Picked up a new Snap on FLF80 from a forum member at a pretty reasonable price. I should get it next week. Thank you all for...

Thank you all for your welcome and great suggestions. After going through the comments posted, I went ahead and ordered the Proto set. I took SSDAVE's advice and registered on Zoro, put the set in my cart and waited. Sure enough the next day there was a 15% off coupon in my email!:thumbup...

Curious as to why you feel that 1/2" Chrome sockets are rarely useful. I tend to use them all the time, especially for brakes and suspension work. In fact I just used them last weekend to replace the brakes & end links on my SUV. It is is what got me looking at a set to augment my tools. I find...

I have both flex and non flex Gearwrench. I bought a set of non-flex years ago when they came out and liked them enough that when the flex heads came out i bought them as well. Like Ike, I always reach for the flex heads. One thing to remember on the Gearwrench (at least the ones i have) is...

I think i am sold on the Proto set. I took SSDAVE's suggestion and registered for an account on Zoro. I'm not in a hurry so ill wait until they send me a coupon. What a great community! I'm glad I joined, you were all very helpful. Next up, 3/8: flex head long handle ratchet...Proto, Williams...

Wow! Thank you all for your insightful suggestions. I was expecting "just by Snap-On they are the best" answers but your replies were all very helpful and gave me some good ideas. I am surprised at all the love Proto is getting. The fact that it is the cheapest and most complete set has it now...

Hi All, long time lurker first time poser. I can usually find answers here by searching, but i have a question that searching couldn't answer. I currently do not have 1/2" 6pt metric sockets. My budget is around $200 and i would like to get as complete of a set as i can. I have narrowed it...
