I have been stopping at all the Lowes close to me over the last few days if I end up by one. I have been looking for a ratcheting screwdriver and was looking at the Gearwrench version. The Kobalt one looks to be the same as the gearwrench and manufactured in Taiwan the same as the Gearwrench...

I recently took over my grandmothers estate after she passed away. Both of my grandparents have passed on now and I am going through the house and getting things together. My grandfather wasn't really a tool junkie but I have found a few things worth keeping here and there. Today I needed to...

I've been looking at these for awhile and really could use the space they free up. Like most things on the internet lately the shipping is killing me picking one up. Most of the shipping I have seen is $10.00+ Anyone have the low down on a deal?

So I have been keeping my eye on the Knipex pliers in the electrical dept at my local lowes. In November I noticed they had a combo pack of both the 7&10" cobras. at the first of November it was $56.94. So I asked for a few Lowes gift cards from santa to get the pair or maybe some other Knipex...

I was in HF today picking up some gloves since the weather is turning colder in the midwest. I was having a look around and it seems the "Pittsburgh Pro" line has been getting a make over. I only saw a few items, but the finish and design is much better than before. Most of it is copied from...

I have decided ii've reached the point where it's time to get some quality screwdrivers. I am pretty taken by the PB Swiss quality and everyone seems to love the design. What about others TOPTUL etc... i've been looking for an excuse to try of there stuff to. I'm not to into the Wiha or Kleins i...

On my last visit to my folks house, i notice a shiny new KBC Tool building down the way from them. Has anyone been inside one? They were closed when i drove by to peer in. It looks like they sell to the regular public, but i really nothing about them. Just wondered if anyone has shopped at one...

I know this has been brought up before, but i couldn't find the thread via search. My question is if anyone has used either the HF or CHINA variety tap/die sets to any success. I don't want to cut threads on blank pieces, just clean up or chase things out. The cheapest HF set looks pretty bad...

Most of my files are handme-downs or some Chiwaneese thing I got as a gift. my older files are of a nicer quality, but have a far amount of wear. I'm looking to get a decent set of files for my box. Just the basics and maybe a few specialty files (thread pitch file etc..) Whats a good...

currently I have only 6-point sockets. like most i've been coming across the random 12-point here and there. i'm interested in picking up some 12-points for the tool box. which drive size do you guys feel is most useful? i understand having all 3 is probably best and in multiple depths... but if...

Sorry to flood the board with post, but by searching I really didn't feel like I found the answer I was looking for. I know Cman and Kobalt ratchets/sockets are made by Danaher. However, I was able to a few sets of the old "round" handle ratchet/socket sers in my local Lowes. Are these "round"...

stopped in my local former "cummins tools" today... I saw quite a few sets of ratchet/socket sets as well as wrench sets. all stamped with the USA and Ernst style holders. Thinking about picking up some of the sockets as a present for my new tool chest. anyone else seen them poping up at...

So I might be stuffy for a mid 30's guy... But, I cannot stand the new fangled Oakley looking safety specs. I prefer the old school shop glass style. My problem is most of mine are bent out of shape or scratched pretty badly at this point. Does anyone know of suppliers that still make or carry...
