    3/8" DRIVE X 3/8" Square Male Pipe Plug Socket Recommendation (Sunex vs Grey Pneumatic)

    I always just stick the drive of the ratchet or extension in those.

    Why do I want a snap on ratcheting screwdriver?

    I don't own one, but the flaccid looking one is my favorite. :ROFLMAO:

    I thought those were silly. Then I tried one. Now I wish they sold ATF+4 in them.

    New Icon G2 Wrenches? (Not just Ratchets)

    My money's on them changing the logo to a stylized Ic-On.

    Pliers for Small Engine Fuel Hoses

    I just use my fingers. If that doesn't work I reach for my Snap On seal removal tool set. https://shop.snapon.com/product/General-Service-Tools-(Motorcycle)/4-pc-Instinct-Soft-Grip-Seal-Removal-Tool-Set-(Red)/SGSR104AR If that doesn't work, the line gets cut because it's petrified and needs...

    I think one of my tool truck drivers has had it with non payers

    Not only that, but a majority of shop owners are cheap, for whatever reason applies to them. Would you want to use a 1980s Craftsman raised panel ratchet all day? Some no name Temu ratchet with less teeth than the average meth head and skips half of them? I know I wouldn't. Plus you make...

    Thats an old pic when they were new, hadn't even gotten around to organizing them yet. I do keep all my tools clean. The welding clamps are almost too nice for welding, so I use the junk Knipex locking pliers I bought before the Eagle Grips were announced for that. I use the Eagle Grips for...

    Moving on from Hansen socket trays: Part 2 - The saga continues.

    I've tried Ernst, Snap On, Craftsman, Tekton, and something else. One of them (I forget which) actually got me less wrenches in the drawer than laying them flat on the bottom and the rest had the wrenches so close together my pudgy meat nuggets couldn't easily grab them, especially with dirty...

    I think I have all, or at least, most of them: Two of each, aside from the needle nose on the far left, only have one of those. They're incredibly nice. I can get you a better pic when I'm at my workshop this weekend if you'd like.

    Moving on from Hansen socket trays: Part 2 - The saga continues.

    I get it, OP. I've tried a number of different wrench holders and I cannot find one I can even tolerate, much less like. I gave up. They lay flat in the drawer as they have for 30 years. Good luck with your latest purchase.

    Never heard of "Rotation" (lol) but if they're good enough for Eric O, they'll live a long life with me. :ROFLMAO: (striking putty knives)

    I think one of my tool truck drivers has had it with non payers

    I've never heard of interest being charged on truck accounts. (money put out by the driver, usually <$2000). I can only guess this would add complications exceeding the value of the interest they could charge on such low balances. The Snap On EC (extended credit) program is more of a...

    2026 Tool Truck Sightings

    I saw a "USA TOOLS" tool truck yesterday in Florida. It was driving opposite direction and there was no time to even consider getting a pic. Anybody ever been on one? Looks like they just sell the same stuff you can get on Amazon?

    I think one of my tool truck drivers has had it with non payers

    All correct. I've never filled out the EC application, but I did take one and read it out of morbid curiosity.

    Advice on buying a new Mig Welder

    What is the downside to owning a Miller if you're willing to pay what they cost? That's why I own a 211. Hobbyist, 10 years with it, still happy. Funny thing is...they now sell used for what I paid for it new back then.

    Excel is local to me, I own a bunch of their USA made stuff. I like it all. They have great sales late in the year if you get on their email list.

    Rate my 1/4" and 3/8" ratchet drawer along with my screwdriver drawer

    I appreciate your dedication to orange. My handles look like a bowl of fruit loops.

    I think one of my tool truck drivers has had it with non payers

    I don't think any franchisee could survive with a 10% skip rate. My dealer has had one guy he's been looking for since before covid. Other than that one guy, he says he needs to chase down one or two guys a year. Maybe he's different since a large part of his route is not auto repair. Where...
