    Haha, no. Left the hydraulic shop I was at and went back to my previous employer (rental maintenance instead of service dept)

    Double bend 3/8 ratchet

    It is quite well built. The ratchet is more of a fine tooth ratchet and it can't take much torque even though it is quite a long handle. The length is more for getting around corners more than providing more torque. The ones I've seen from Snap-On seem to have a high quality locking joint...

    Double bend 3/8 ratchet

    I've seen those, but it's quite different. You can reach around corners with it and you can leave one of the joints unlocked and use a pushing motion after the fastener is loosened and use it as a speeder of sorts.

    Double bend 3/8 ratchet

    Bought this puppy about 5 years ago off the Snap-On dealer. He also had the adjustable heelbars. Now this was before Snap-On and Craftsman came out with them. The company that made it was Radial-Lock. It's made in USA. And according to my Snap-On dealer I bought it from, the company went...

    Remote Controlled Mac Toolbox (Revisited)

    Mother of God... I wonder how much they could get the cost down if they mass produced them. $5k is a little steep, especially considering that doesn't include labor...

    Show off your Jack(s)

    Good to know. The only thing I don't like about it is that it doesn't start pumping until the handle is at 45 degrees to the floor.

    Show off your Jack(s)

    Just picked this puppy up for $40 off Craigslist. Did some research and found out they were about $200 new from Pep Boys. Also found it's the same as the Lincoln W93642 but with different side plates (not folded over at the top for strength) Still a sold jack that the guy only used a couple...
