Hi, I'm needing some help tracking down some sockets I'm after. I already have versions of these but I'm replacing the China **** with US/Euro stuff etc. These are the last ones i need to be China free. I need 14/17/19mm Hex bit sockets. Impact grade with an overall length less than 88mm...

Hi, I've been upgrading a few of my made in china sockets to Snap on stuff. Two i changed are 1/4" deep 8 and 10mm from blue point to snappy. All has been well until today when i went to remove a glow plug and found the Snappy ones don't fit - the inside of the socket doesn't allow the plug...

Hi, I have some Mini Air Line Filters i use when using my air tools, impact gun etc etc. They aren't the most amazing things in the world, but they do trap water when i use them and haven't given me any issues. Only problem I've had is a pressure drop when using my air gun which sometimes mean...

Hi, I'm looking for a hand rivet gun, something USA made or European - German etc etc. I searched here and found a few posts about this but generally the older USA made stuff is now China. Another post gave info about Gesipa riveters made in Germany but i only found 1 negative review about...

Hi, Looking at picking up a Flexzilla air hose. Being in the UK this will be a bit more effort for me as we don't have dealers here, so before i dive into it any comments on them ? I'm after my own hose at work, the standard rubber ones fitted to the reels are completely ****. As a Snappy...

Hi, Was doing some research today into some pliers and couldn't believe my eyes when i came across this: http://www.bahco-werkzeuge.de/products/7140.html That looks to me to be an exact copy of the MG725 SO air gun, supposedly made in the USA..... If you run through the specs the two are...

Hi, I'm doing a lot of alignments at the moment and my locking grips (10") aren't cutting it for getting the tie rods moving on older rust buckets. The PWZ2 pliers look handy, nice and long for leverage decent looking jaws. Anyone have experience using them ? Are they good/bad ? Thanks

Hi, I'm in need of a hot air gun, my price range and preference has taken me to either a Bosch PHG600-3 or Metabo H 16-500 The Bosch can blow cold which is a bonus. Any opinions on either ? Are Bosch made in China or elsewhere ?

Hi, I'm in the market for a grinder. The other day i had to cut a Range Rover rear upper wishbone out as the bolts had seized in the bushes as they usually do. I used a Ryobi grinder with a cutting disc and it worked but getting access was a pain. I've seen the Metabo before...

Hi, I've searched for answers on this subject but numerous threads never really got anywhere. I have a chance to buy a black roll cab on the cheap. My current boxes are black with green drawers and I'd prefer if I could get it all to match. So my question is can the extreme green colour...
