    Mac Tech 1000 vs Harbor Freight 41/44 tool boxes

    I saw this pop up in my area on Craigslist: http://raleigh.craigslist.org/tls/4281903997.html I know Harbor Freight offered the 44 in a few colors back in the day and I think yellow was one. Any how, how does the Mac Tech 1000 stack up to the HF 44/41 box? Thanks Wes

    chops101 Thanks for the photos and update. Those jack stands look great tucked away on the top shelf where they can collect dust! ;) Things look great in that photo. It might be worth calling NAT to see if they'll sell you a drive over base plate for cheap like the one they offer on the...

    HF redesigned 20 ton shop press- $127.49

    There are two different models of the air jacks that HF sells. They look the same at first glance but the base plate dimensions are different between the two. Which model/item number is that in your photos? Thanks Wes

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    For occasional home use...what's the opinion on the Automotive AC guage sets? The HF website reviews are all over the map, but the lower rated reviews seem to be from pro shops that used the guage set for more than a year on a daily basis or they were bad sets right out of the box. Thanks Wes

    Re: Portable 7000 lb capacity 2 post lift - UPDATE W/Discount code in post 1 As noted the manual calls for a 30amp so I think Mr. Clark mis-spoke. Of course there are "slow trip" breakers that let you exceed the rated amps for a short window for a motor to start up but will trip if a...

    To provide some context, I think the comment you are quoting is referencing the following test: Edit to add: The above test is of an un-named brand and does not appear to be designed like any lifts offered by NAT. Wes

    Keter Work Table $49 at Walmart

    So mine had a similar issue on one side only. I examined the two sides and found two things. 1) There was a little bit of extra polymer flashing from the molding process on the side that wouldn't shut. A quick swipe with a file fixed that. 2) More importantly, the red locking tab on the side...

    HF redesigned 20 ton shop press- $127.49

    Their inventory system allows them to track which one they have in the store but does show them alternative numbers. The store employees can see which item they have on hand, you just have to explain that the two are constructed differently so you need to know if they actually have the 60603 on...

    Thanks for testing. A local store, that's a national distributor, recently had several thousand sq ft(Like 1.5 Sams club stores) polished, stained with a red clay stain and then burnished. It looked great with the aggregate exposed but I was concerend that the finish wouldn't prevent oil...

    Polished Concrete Flooring

    I'm an organized and clean worker myself, but I've accidentally dropped a quart of oil before and I've come out to my shop to find a "surprise" leak that I didn't catch for a few days so I'm curious to know what I should expect if I go this route. Will the concrete **** the oil up just like...

    You have that backwards, Joe. The Silver model is the new version. It bolts together. The orange model is the original and the frame is welded. Wes
