    Craftsman Lathe questions

    That's actually not a 12" lathe, it's a 6". They are incredibly handy; I use mine 2-3 times a week. Once you have it set up and working they make themselves useful for just about everything. I have a slightly different vintage Craftsman/Atlas 6", and I love it. It was actually my...

    Floor Jack

    Has anyone ever used wright ratcheting flare nut wrenches?

    Thanks for the responses. I'm just going with the snap-ons. Looking at them I thought "hm, it's getting full engagement around the outside. The 12 point aspect of it really didn't occur to me. I'll get a set of snap-ons.

    Has anyone ever used wright ratcheting flare nut wrenches?

    I find these intriguing, but I'd like to hear a first hand account of how they work. http://www.amazon.com/dp/B003Q7IWAE/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I'm going to be converting a 68 Camaro to an LS setup and will be running quite a few brake, fuel, clutch lines etc. I dont want them to slip or...
