    Cman Needle Nose Pliers

    I have a old pair of Craftsman Needle Nose Pliers that I tried to get replaced at Sears. The old pliers have a hinge like these pliers on the left. All that Craftsman now has are pliers with the hinge like the pliers on the right. I'm hesitant to exchange the pliers for what I think is a...

    How Old Is This Vise

    I picked up this vise from a garage sale. It has no markings that I can find. It has a leg that extends down about three feet that is clamped to the bench for extra stability. I would guess it is pretty old. Does anybody know who made it and how old it is?

    Old Style Metal Socket Trays

    Does anyone know where to get some Old Style Metal Socket Trays? I'm talking about the kind where it is a metal box without a top and a handle that keeps the sockets in but can also swing over to the side to allow you to get at the sockets.

    M12 Superize

    I just tried out my new Milwaukee M12 drill & impact driver. Wow! I thought my 9.6 NiCad drill was powerful but it is wimpy compared to the M12. So much more powerful than I expected that I think I'm going to take them back and get the M12 Fuels. The Fuel drill is 1/2" rather than 3/8. But...

    Battery Packs

    Since Milwaukee & Ridgid are owned by the same company TTI are both their battery packs made with the same Lithium nickel cobalt manganese oxide formula? Are Dewalt packs still Lithium Ion Iron Nano-Phosphate (LiFePO4)? What other Lithium-Ion formula's do the other manufacturers use? What...

    Hex --> 3/8 Socket Adapters

    Which Hex to 3/8 socket adapter is stronger? I picked up a Makita Impact Gold wobble head part #B-35075 just because of the wobble I will probably just use this in tight locations. I don't expect this to hold up as well as a straight on adapter. So what adapter holds up the best?

    Lithium-ion VS NiCad

    Seems that everyone here is jumping on the Lithium-Ion wagon. If you need "MORE POWER" and use your tool everyday I can see it. But these Lithium-ion packs only last 2-3 years. If you can afford to get a new drill every couple years fine. Many can find better use of their resources by...

    M18 Fuel Hex Driver < M12 Driver

    Checking out the Milwaukee Drill/Driver kits today and it seemed the M18 Fuel Hex driver was physically smaller than the M12 hex driver. If so isn't it best to get the M18? More power and able to fit into tighter spots.
