    I'm Tempted, But I Smell A Fish!

    Its hard to say if its real or not. I do a lot of stuff with buying and selling on craigslist and find all posts are different. yes there are easy ones to know they are scammers, but its not always easy to tell. One guy I worked with found an ad that said brand new dodge ram truck for sale...

    I do have quite a few drill bits, so I will look into those. Thanks. I saw the hansen trays there yesterday. They had the 1/4 for both sae and metric and space for both sae and metric in the 3/8 but only the sae were in stock. No 1/2 stuff though. Thanks for the link. If I cant find anything...

    Yeah i wasnt sure about the taps banging into each other so I spun the tray around for now so they dont really hit each other as much. I can't wait until the GRIP trays get here. I started putting some impact sockets on one of the 1/2 drive trays and they fit really well. I will let you guys...

    My Budget Tool Box Organization

    I decided to organize both of my pliers drawers today. I bought a 20 inch by 6 foot roll of black mesh drawer liner for $5.80 with tax. After cutting it to size, I used 1 inch double sided foam tape in each corner to help hold it in place. You can open and close the drawer several times and...

    My Budget Tool Box Organization

    Yeah I am pretty close in Livonia. I'll let you know if I need anything. I did end up buying a few more things at a garage sale on the way to dinner tonight. I got a large pair and medium size pair of needle nose vise grips and a small level that was new in the package. Even the pliers look...

    I never thought of using those. If I have room left in my budget at the end I may end up redoing the taps and going with something like that. Thanks. I was going to get some of them at first but that would have used up a lot of my budget. I ended up ordering some that are similar to the harbor...

    I went and got a few more things today. The screwdrivers I already had were bent and rusted so I decided to get this Husky set from Home Depot seeing as it was $15.77 with tax. I also went and got (2) rolls of teflon tape [.25 each], (2) rolls of electrical tape [.49 each], the die handle...

    I got them at sears. Also its just a 5/16 wrench nothing bigger. At a certain point I wouldn't go real cheap with bigger stuff. They are also used so thats also why they are cheaper, but they still look new. yep your right, it was just a 5/16. I should have wrote it out better. Thanks. yeah...

    Yeah I already told my dad if he uses it he has to put it back, but I dont think that will last long. LOL. I also forgot that I was missing some wrenches so I had to buy (2) 6mm (.69 each), (1) 5/16 (.79), and (1) 1/2 (.99). I still need one 11/32 but they were out so I ordered it and will get...

    I just got this Husky 40" tool box and want to organize it as I stock it with the tools I already have and also got along with the box. Its my first real tool box that doesn't include the cheaper and small one I had as a kid. I am in college and living at home so I don't plan on spending a lot...

    Home Depot censors their tool reviews

    Yeah that makes sense. I also would try what skin said. that way people still at least know how bad the drill is regardless of where it was made.

    Home Depot censors their tool reviews

    thats interesting. I'm sure they aren't the only one doing that, so it makes you wonder who else does. I know bad feedback takes away from sales but it could also help maybe sell other brands within your company.

    that does look like a nice set. I should already have pretty much everything I need, but I will keep this set in mind.

    what size sockets for sets?

    Its a husky and its 64 inches tall. I will try to have some pics up of the wrenches organized tomorrow or friday. After looking through the majority of the sockets I have, I will end up with 1/4 6pt shallow and deep sockets for metric and sae, 3/8 drive 6pt and 12 pt in both deep and shallow...
