Both Empire and Johnson are made in the USA. I have both. Loved it when Menards put their Empire levels on clearance to make room for the Johnson's. Picked up a 72" True Blue box level for $30.

What....the.... Why, just why?

Nope, completely different box.

They're NOT Waterloo. They seem okay, but I did notice a weld was broken on the display on the top part of the box. Kind of sent up a warning shot to me.

Some people have tool budgets and try to stick to them. I have one, and I try to stay within the limit I set for myself. I suspect mine might be higher than average. Maybe his tool budget is $100 a month but he wants other stuff too. Just pointing out the other side of the coin.

For the money you're going to have a very hard time beating the Husky 3/8 72 tooth ratchet. It's an APEX ratchet (ie Armstrong, Gearwrench, ect) so they borrowed the design and gave it quick release. It's also a MUCH thinner head than the Kobalt or Titan...

I am SO glad we don't have inspections here in Indiana!!!

I'll be the counterpoint here. There is a whole lot of stuff just doesn't need to last forever as a general rule. A hammer? Sure, that could be a lifetime investment and could be handed down. But I have my grandfathers all metal Mall drill. Still works to this day, though I never use it...

Ya think?

eBay. That's what I did if COO really bothers you.

The easiest thing for me has been this... Slide a fender washer (or two) over the blade Wrap the blade in gorilla tape (or leather would work) Clamp the blade in a vise leaving about a 1/2 gap between the handle & the top of the vise Use a couple of pry bars and gently lift up ****, undamaged...

They should also not tangle, kink and remain flexible even in cold weather...this one does all of that. When you need to uncoil a hose in February because your sump pump went out during a big snow melt, it sure is nice to be able to run it from your basement out your kitchen window when it's...

I used it not that long ago for a car battery!

Well, yes and no. I have the Cobra's (rebadged as Craftsman), the mini bolt cutters, cable cutters and diagonal cutters. The mini bolt cutters are awesome, I wouldn't trade them for anything. LOVE them. The diagonal cutters are not impressive and I am still using the ones I thought I was...

Yea, this is what gets me too. I hear guys talking about having truck tools for home, but they buy el cheapo for the junkyard trips. Um, wouldn't make more sense to take the strongest most durable of your tools for removing stubborn nuts and bolts on some POS car that's been sitting there for 10...

Wouldn't it just be easier to buy the China made sets and exchange them for the USA singles? That's what I did. I did buy the two large sizes individually to complete the set.

I've had no issues with kinking and in my opinion this is the best hose I've ever owned. I've got 3 of the 50' hose and love them. Stainless steel end fittings too. They are however heavy, so keep that in mind when buying the 100'

Here's my school of thought on this... If you contact him in another 4 months, he's still got you. The seller has all the control in this case. Clearly he doesn't need to sell the box and he's not desperate for money so you're waiting on him. In all of this time, you haven't found another one...

Interesting...and hmmph!

IF that's the actual generator it's a pretty good deal. I'd likely buy it at that price. I've been pricing out Champion generators lately, and will probably go that route.
