    8 point sockets

    I need a set. My commercial mower uses a 7/16 square pipe plug. I change oil every 50 hours of use its a pain in the **** to use an open ended wrench.

    Plier Storage

    Yep - I don't worry about getting them dirty while using them but they don't go back in their place until they're wiped down. I call it maintaining my investment.

My favorite one has a lot of people that set up outside in the summer months. It's about time to take a...

    I haven't had a chance to get to Harbor Freight because the nearest one is an hour and a half from me, but, I'm really wanting to take a look at that tool cart. I've been looking at it for some time. I think it was 219.00 until the last flyer came out at 199.00. You can use a 15% off coupon...

    Mechanix Gloves - Do you use them?

    I dont do a lot of mechanic work but do a LOT of outside work. I have a side business in landscaping. I've done it for the last 10 years.

    This months Craftsman Club Flier

    I'm not sure if it's available as an online purchase. I've never tried it but you go in the store and present your Craftsman Club card for the special pricing. I was a member a couple of years ago and I stopped getting flyers. I called the 800 number posted here and they renewed it. I was told...

    Moving BIG/HEAVY stuff by yourself!

    Yep - pipe is the way to go. I helped a buddy move one off a deck once. We backed my utility trailer up the deck. Rolled it on pipe to the trailer and slid it up on the edges of the trailer. Took it to his house and rolled it right off on pipe on to his deck.

    looking to buy a very basic table saw.

    I've read a lot of good reviews on Ryobi table saws. I haven't had experience with them but I have a Ryobi miter saw I bought in 1992, and it just keeps going. I've built decks, fences, remodeled my kitchen, cut landscape timbers, and no telling what all over the years. It just keeps going!!!

    looking to buy a very basic table saw.

    I had an old off brand 10" benchtop that served me well for years. It wasn't a good quality saw nor was it accurate enough to use for detail work. I started shopping for a new one. Looked at several but didn't want to break the bank for one I would use only occasionally. I finally found a good...

    How many wrenches?

    I really can't tell. My wrench drawer is so crammed full and piled up I don't know. I keep everything organized but have neglected my wrenches. I just keep buying more, stuffing them in the drawer and digging when I need one. I was putting a new radiator in my wife's Camry the other night and...

    Bargain tool shopper

    I hear you!!! I buy a lot of quality tools at flea markets, etc. I like saving the money but, it's the thrill of the hunt that makes it a blast!! I dug a nice old Williams USA wrench out of the bottom of a rusty old tool box full of imported junk a guy was selling. Bought it for a buck...

    Tool Organizers- Whats out there ?

    I use the cheap metal clip rails for my sockets. I mount them to strips of 3/4" thick wood that I rip to about 1/1/2" wide and stand them up in my top tray of my chest. I paint the wood red for sae and grey for metric. It keeps them organized. My wrench drawer, however, is a disaster!! I think...

    Why buy Snap on over SK, Cman, etc? Im convinced, there IS a difference!

    I didnt finish that and accidentally posted it.... You can't compare Craftsman and Snap On. If you don't like Craftsman thats fine. I dont make a living with my tools. If I did it might be different. I would love to have all Snap On but that would be a big waste of cash that I dont have because...
