    suggestion for new crimpers please

    I have the Astro set and they have worked well for me thus far. Since i liked them, I picked up the Astro weatherpack ratcheting crimpers also. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Is this HF $69 vise a good starter vise? Or should I spend more elsewhere.

    The hf one is craptastic. Number 2 in the garage is broken once again. This thing doesnt see alot of use but it dudnt matter. What little use that needs any effort will break them in one of 4 different ways. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Up to 30% off Autel on Amazon today

    Im not an expert on Autel, but several of those are the exact same thing as one another with different accessories. Some include the j box for ecu programing, while others dont. Also some include the bluetooth obd adaptor, while the other version of the exact one doesn't. The cable has to be ran...

    Pliers grip replacement

    Ive always wondered how well whiskey wax would work for new grips. Wonder what Makers Mark would say if i brought a set of pliers to dip while on the tour. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Harbor Freight engine stand any good?

    I have the 1 ton model and its pretty stable. The only downsides are that it can be a bear to rotate an engine upside down, and the v on the legs make it difficult to transfer a motor from the cherry picker to the stand. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Ebay or Auction Deals Permathread!

    Pretty good price for these Sunnex 1/2 inch impact set. Normally run around 140 bucks. https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fulk%2Fitm%2F191991307978 Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Which is louder, M12 Fuel Ratchet or Aircat 800 air ratchet?

    I would be willing to bet the m12 is quieter. My Aircat 805-HT screams compared to it. Then again, 130 ft lbs half inch drive versus the 3/8" Milwaukee isnt a fair comparison. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Extremely disappointed in new Proto ratchet design

    As stated earlier, that is a tether ready version. I won an auction on ebay for cheap that included a tether ready ratchet, but was listed as a standard. Been meaning to get a rebuild kit for it to swap out the anvil but never have. Might gwt around to it one day. Sent from my LML713DL using...

    Welding Cart incorporating ToolBox/ToolChest

    Kinda like this lol. I zipp tied the cable to the handle so it is up above the door now. Only downfall is using some cable length. If you go that route, here is a coupon. These green brake caliper hooks also come in handy for extra holders on the cart. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Mityvac explodes!

    It works on the same principle that a carburetor does to draw in fuel. Heres a video of how it works. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk I should have watched more of the video. Wasnt aware that it went so far in depth on the engineering aspect. Way above my knowledge. The picture below...

    Mityvac explodes!

    Only reason it shouldnt work would be you have a vacuum leak or the venturi vac generator is messed up. Sometimes they will **** up debris and clog themselves. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk

    Mityvac explodes!

    Photodegradation caused by uv exposure that breaks down the polymer chains. Ive head a few motorcycle front brake resivors do the same thing. The plastic changes colors, gets chalky and britle. There are additives that can be mixed in to help fight off this effect, but if a product last for its...

    Most important, but least used tool?

    That specific one is a proto J7099A impacting screwdriver. Accecpts bits for screws and torx on one end, then you turn the body and smack it with a hammer. This causes it to rotate the fastner, with the added benefit of applying alot of pressure to prevent cam out. Works great on getting out...

    3/8 socket set With BEST CASE

    I like the fact that SK sells just the blow molded cases by itself should you ever have a need to replace it. A nice thick piece of foam works great at keeping sockets from moving around inside a case. Sent from my LML713DL using Tapatalk
