Bump .... in favor of this being a sticky ... giving it a bump

it is a dissapointment when you go to buy tools that always were top of the line and US made to boot ... only to find out they are made elsewhere ... automatic loss of confidence in the quality ... the files may be as good as the US made ones ... but the confidence ain't there anymore ...

Congrad's Tony ... You did drop some cash ... but you're set up for a while now ... looking forward to seeing the pics

I use a 2"X8" to put my Harley's in my pick-up. I did make ramp ends out of 1/8" steel plate which made it eaiser to get started up the ramp on the bottom end and I made the front so the steel plate laid up on the tail gate and the board against the tail gate so the board couldn't push up into...

Vernmotor, Very nice set up! Thank's for sharring

I guess I'm the fish to take the bait today. How do you make a file handle out of a golf ball? and the wire nut thing, tiny file?

I heard of them being called "break loose bars" and "flex handles" but I've always called them "breaker bars" because that was the name it was called when I first learned of them. I've never heard them called a "hinge wrench" though. I wouldn't have a clue what someone wanted if they ask me for...

I almost always grab a short extension when I'm using a socket and rachet. I have one that came in a 3/8" set that is about an inch long. The collar of the female end is almost touching the back of the socket on the male end. I use that one quite often to get a little more clearence for my big...

As a pro welder ... 20+ years construction pipe welder ... for real protection we use leather ... I sometimes use a single leather sleeve ... in a bad spot I use a set of sleeves that have a short jacket length apron that snaps on the yolk ... 95% of the time we only use heavy cotton shirts ...

Wiha Tools sells Heyco made in Germany open end wrenches that are thin and high quality ... just checked head thickness .224 on the 9/16" .... just a little under 1/4" ... I guess that may be to thick as they are almost as thick as the ones listed above ... I have a set of these and I like them...

I use the limo window tint ... my only windows are in the big doors ... it looks natural in day light and you can't see in ... at night if the inside lights are on you can see in the garage ... not the best security I know but it beats nothing ... at least I'm home when you can see in

I have a steel fab table I used High Heat header paint on. The paint acted more like a dye than paint. No problems grounding through it. I tack and weld on top of it. It also protected it from rusting. Many of the industrial paints coat the metal so much you cannot ground through the paint. This...

no doubt about the Proto ratchets being top quality ... you say you don't want to deal with e-bay though ... that being said I would also recomend the round head fine tooth Craftsman ... I have one I cut the handle down and welded up to make a shorty ratchet from ... this is my go to ratchet...

Taiwan ... I have sockets and ratchets made by Toptul "Taiwan" that I'm more than satisfied with the fit, finish and quality of. I also have S-K ratcheting wrenches made in Taiwan. Just as with the Toptul tools, fit, finish and quality are top rate all the way. The only China made tools I...

When I started using locking pliers I don't think there was any but Vice Grip. I have wore out quite a few sets in my life but I've always been pleased with the use I got out of them. I've always replaced them with Vice Grip brand but it was because that was what I was used to using. Craftsman...
