I wonder if this auction is for the former Craftsman/Stanley B&D plant? https://diauctions.hibid.com/catalog/472024/by-order-of--stanley-black-and-decker--inc-

I am trying to thread 2" aluminum tubing to a 2"-24 thread to make replacement reservoirs for Lyman # 55 powder measures. Was wondering about the Ridgid bolt cutting dies for their pipe machines and how interchangeable they are with using a set of 24 tpi die cutters on the 1-2" bolt die head. I...

Anyone have any experience with Vision Systems? We are looking at replacing our 3 OGP Flash 302 machines (they are pushing 10-12 years old) and am curious about the offerings from Mitutoyo and Hexagon as well as OGP. I honestly wasn't really sold on the Starrett machines, or are their sales...

Going to helping my Brother with his above ground swimming pool. The pump is 2 hp, 115v Distance from main circuit panel to where he wants to go out of the house is between 80-100 ft Distance from house to pool ~25 ft max One thought was to run 6/2 w/ground romex from circuit panel to about...

I was wondering if anyone still makes nails/fasteners for the older, high velocity Ramset guns (122md Jobmaster)? I know Ramset doesn't make anything, but wasn't sure if anyone else might still make something? Secondary question: why did they stop making the high velocity gun?

Has anyone dealt with Hein Werner customer service? I received my new 2 ton floor jack today and have a couple issues that I would like resolved. One is the jack seems twisted because the one wheel is about a 1/4" up and the second, more serious issue being that the lift arms aren't even close...

What is the main difference between these unit heaters (besides size)? Say for 100k BTU, is one "really better" than the other.....or why would I choose one over the other, if height isn't an issue.......

Finally got my Ridgid 500 pipe machine running again, but am curious which oil to use? Been using dark, but only squirting it onto the pipe when threading. I want to get the auto oilier working, if it isn't, but I am curious is dark is the way to go or not...... Will be threading black...

Looking for a few gunsmith screwdriver bits and was wondering if the Wera bits are hollow ground similar to the Chapman or Brownell's Magna Tips? Or do they have the typical tapered end? The picture in their catalog looked like they were hollow ground, but was looking for confirmation.

A question arose about the Greenfield Tap & Die company in a another post about who actually owns it (Kennametal is the owner). I thought because it actually involves many other companies that are brought up on this forum (Vermont Tap & Die, Chicago-Latrobe, Cleveland Twist drill, Bassett, among...

As of right now I have 100 amp service in my detached garage, wired with 2 gauge thhn copper, about 75' worth of wire/cable run. Can I use a knife switch or even the existing breaker panel (preferred) as a splice/junction and continue/add a cable run another 50-60 feet to another panel in a...

Last night I brought home an old IR type 30 Model 30 compressor (tank is dated 1944, compressor has a serial of 192540 and a date of 01-61 below that). I read that last 2 digits of the serial number is the manufacture date, does that put this compressor as a pre-WW2, with a possible factory...

I was looking at buying another pair of dial calipers and was looking at B&S instead of the Starretts I've always used/owned. My "concern" is that the B&S's don't have a thumb-wheel like the Starrett's have. Has anyone here used both and actually find they miss the thumb-wheel? Or does the B&S...

Does anyone know of a source for Lowe brand 9.104 hand pruners? They are German made, but it seems impossible to find an online store here in the States. OR Is there another German or Swiss made set of pruners that are good? I found a thread from5 years ago and figured a lot has changed since...

Jori, I like the new HJE site so far except one thing.....I miss the company origin flag by the product without having to click on that particular product. i found that feature handy. Other than that minor thing, I think your website is very nice and was worth the wait.

Just went on the Harry Epstein website and it still is the old one. Does the new website have a different address? Or am I too early at 7:14 am EST?

Instead of sticking this onto the end another thread, I though maybe to make a new thread..... If someone wants to find a Snap On truck or driver in their area, all you need to do is go to the Snap On website and click the button "find a franchisee".

Hi, I am look for the Snap On shadow (display) boards for their puller sets. Found them.... thanks...bob

About 2 months ago I put down six tri-axle loads of asphalt highway millings for a driveway. I made it 5" thick and rolled it and it is plenty hard. I am thinking about sealing it in the next month or so......but not sure with what. I have about 3500 sq ft of area to be sealed and would like to...
