Milwaukee metric combo wrenches to add to my portfolio. ASD on the open end and excited to try them.

The SO website also says it protects from Rust. Purple Power or Simply Green does not claim that.

Just picked up this tool at HF. Hoping this will be great on cutting nails and screws flush.

Now everyone just gave me more to think about. It is good! I have seen the tubular style with out the blower. I never could understand how it would be very effective with out the forced air from the room into the tubes. It seems like the fire back is a good idea if nothing more than to...

No. No need to guess. This is Installed in the back of a fireplace. It is essentially a steel or cast iron plate that protects the brick and helps radiate heat.

I was recently at a friends home who had a cast iron fire back in his fireplace and it was throwing good heat. I can't say what it was like before he got it. He claims it improving the heat into the room. I am thinking of getting one. What should I be looking for in buying one? Anybody with...

Most people here have said those V series ratchets are nice. I'm Not sure why they did not have greater interest. Other than most people already have ratchets which they are happy enough with. I assume ratchets were not on many Christmas wish lists. I have not been to my store in a week or...

So what am I missing? The original question was generic, asking about tool box brands, comparing overall quality of HF USG to Koblat. Not any particular size or drawer count. Nothing about Yukon. I repeat it below...

That is my sense too. I own a HF US General and am very pleased. I was looking at the Kobalt wooden top box that was on sale last week. I felt it was inferior. Not a bad deal for the sale price of $300. But, to answer the question, The US General is a better overall box. RE: the Gear Wrench...

I would also add, from someone with experience. Not someone with lots of theory in their head and no experience.

Man you really are stubborn. OK you win. You feel better.

You are taking my comments out of context. Go back and read all I said.

That is why most snow blowers have a fuel shut off valve. If you do not have one I highly recommend adding one. On some of the newer inexpensive MTD machines it is hard to do but still possible with some ingenuity. I leave my machine outside for a while after cleaning it off. What little gets...

OK i trust you are right about all of that. But you changed the topic.

I have always said these things vary locaiton to location. I am speaking strictly from a consumers point of view in my region. In the past year Lowes has been providing so much more value than HD. Prices are overall better and customer service is head and shoulders better. I have Always...

My Lowe's in NH has the V ratchets. They seemed to be well stocked with the holiday tool deals. As I always say, Store quality varies by region. If your local store is lower on the sales list I would expect them to be at the end of the line to get in new products. Where you live maters...

You can always buy on line. I know that does not help if you are not sure what exactly you want and desire to look at something in person.

The quality of Box stores vary location to location. If you can go to another Lowes, you may find it is staffed and run differently.

I saw those 1/4 inch sets and thought they were a very good deal. I would have bought them but I just do not need it. All of the Kobalt tools (including ratchets) I own I am very satisfied with. I think they are much better than what Husky offers. Many Husky hand tools are now made in India...
