    I got some new gloves this weekend, anyone ever use Thicksters?

    I started Saturday working on my house addition https://goo.io/nJwYmJ when I was reminded that I needed to put new power steering hoses on my daughter's '90 Shadow that I've had laying around a couple weeks. I REALLY didn't want to work on that on my 42nd birthday, which was probably the...

    Wholesale Tool? www.wttool.com any experience with these guys?

    I did a search and found a few references, but nothing very descriptive. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ My wife brought home a catalog from her work, a guy that no longer works there used to get them and I was pretty impressed with some of the pricing on things. I'm sure their self branded stuff is...

    Using Pex crimp rings on 3/8" air hose with barbed fittings?

    Seems like this would work and be a lot better than a hose clamp.... https://goo.io/nJwYmJ :confused::headscrat

    Can you use an A/C coil for an after cooler on a compressor?

    I was thinking of using an A coil for an aftercooler, but didn't know what pressure an A/C https://goo.io/nJwYmJ system sees.

    16" Tubaxial exhaust fan for my future paint booth, not a great deal, but half of new @ $400. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ Now this is a smoking deal, but we'll play a game, identify this $50 vise... http://oklahomacity.craigslist.org/tls/862758252.html I can swing $50, but it'd cost me that much...

    RE: BlackandWhitePit's wrench threads, how bout a list of brands to look for @ Pawn.. Shops? https://goo.io/nJwYmJ Maybe arrange them in order of best to worst (well, I doubt anyone would agree...). How about "star" catagories, 5 star down to 1 star with 0 star being HF or Hecho in China tools.

    Anybody ever bought from Citrus Tools in Florida?

    I just bought a Marson #39001 Rivet Kit from them. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ They have great eBay feedback, over 10,000 sales and 100% rating and 5 stars in each catagory. http://myworld.ebay.com/citrusautomotive Lots of tools on their website, thought I'd tell you all about them...

    I'm thinking of buying a roofing nail gun.....

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ as I'm adding onto my house (a sunroom and not the three car garage, unfortunately) and I'll probably be doing the roof myself and thought the gun would be fast than hand nailing it. I've never used one before, but I know they're sensitive to pressure and need to have...

    I did a search for 'Rivet Guns' and sorta came up empty....

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ I want a quality gun and like many, I don't want to break the bank buying it. I don't need an air operated one either. Do any manufacturers make a rivet gun that doubles as a RivNut gun?

    Any electricians out there? How do you drive a ground rod?

    I used to work in the telecommunications industry, but I was in the office on the design end. We used to have large ground loops around towers and shelters, typically 8' rods on 8' centers or 10' rods on 10' centers. https://goo.io/nJwYmJ I want to say the guys in the field used an electric...

    https://goo.io/nJwYmJ I've got a Homelite chainsaw my dad gave me several years ago, it was a Walmart one he bought while he was up in South Dakota putting in a gas gathering system for cutting railroad ties. I've had it for a few years, it's been decent but loosing power. I loaned it out to...

    I picked up a Dewalt DW290 1/2" Impact Wrench for $35 locally on Craigslist....

    It's a little scuffed but it seems to work okay. One question though, I slipped a deep socket on it and grabbed the socket and the hammer engaged, but the socket didn't turn in my hand. Is this normal? I kicked around just cleaning it up and eBaying it, but they're sort of varied on how much...

    I won a Matco MT1711 air hammer on ePay for $27, did I do good?

    :bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce: https://goo.io/nJwYmJ It's considered used, but never used. I'm guessing they run a couple hundred new? It's my first 'tool truck' tool purchase, even though I didn't get it from a tool truck. I have a 6" Snap-On extension and a couple...
