    Milton tire air fitting you didn’t know you need for inflating.

    Can someone link these 2 click push button connectors? Sounds slick.

    Tekton flare nut crows feet. I’ve been impressed with the other Tekton made in USA tools I’ve had and I like the direction the company is going. Plus the storage solution they provide is perfect.

    Gearwrench 1/4” extension set. The tray is actually pretty nice so I just put it right in my extension/ratchet drawer.

    A few things mostly motorcycle related: Can't recall what they call this type of spanner but I only had 2 before and they never seem to work for what I was using them for so I got this whole kit. They are quite thick and seem well made, it was just some random Amazon brand...

    Interesting Torque Wrench Mythbusting (new?)

    That would make sense.

    Interesting Torque Wrench Mythbusting (new?)

    Biggest surprise of the whole video for me, really wasn’t expecting that. I wonder if they formulate in some kind of friction material to keep the counter the lubrication of the liquid but as it gets old the friction material “sets up” and makes it work “too good”.

    Tools of Japan

    For what it’s worth I’ve picked up a few vessel items from Ali over the last few months that don’t appear to be fakes.

    Interesting Torque Wrench Mythbusting (new?)

    I found the most interesting part was when they tested the locktite and at first found out that it actually lowered the amount of bolt tension applied. It was a long expired bottle(2017 IIRC) so they bought a fresh bottle and the bolt tension and applied torque was bang on. I really wasn’t...

    As for the seem rippers, I’ve been using them for opening up wiring harness for over 15 years. I’ve had a few, I have one from Japan that has held up well and actually has a decent size handle on it. Pretty sure I got it from Amazon.jp

    M12 3/8 ratchets.... 2557 vs. 2567 (regular vs fast)

    I have a few configurations. The high speed long neck 1/4 is my go to and most used by far.

    Few new items: Meyhew Punch/Chisel set. I really didn't need the whole set, only wanted the "starter" type punches but that set was 75% of the cost of this entire set. Can never have too many good punches. Next are a couple of add on items to some bike parts I ordered. Motion Pro Chain slack...

    Snap-on Pocket Slip-Joint Pliers set! New release!

    Yes Knipex has lots of great tools, I probably have over 20 pairs of knipex, my favourite flush cuts are knipex. The point of my post wasn’t to bash knipex. It was stating why in most cases Snap-On are better IMO.

    Snap-on Pocket Slip-Joint Pliers set! New release!

    How? They are better in every possible way. Better handles, that are stiffer, putting more of the force you apply to the working end. The dipped texture is perfection. Better teeth that grip and hold up better than knipex, channel lock, any of the Japan make makes I’ve tried. The needle nose...

    Your Biggest Fantasy Tool (That Doesnt Exist)

    A electric ratchet wrench that is the same size as a normal ratchet wrench. Doesn’t have to be powerful. Just enough to turn run in bolts and nuts.

    Yep! That’s the winner, ordered. This will work better on motorcycle and bike tires too.

    Picked up this Milton Digital Inflation brand new sealed in package for 1/2 of retail price from marketplace. I've been wanting a high quality digital inflator for years. I'd like to replace the chuck with a lock on style, thinking about the Locknflate but the price is steep($70CAD) which is...

    Why 8-10, 9-11, 12-14, 13-15 Splits Instead of 8-9, 10-11, 12-13, etc?

    I always figured it was this although it doesn't seem all manufactures are on board with the same sizes so doesn't always work out.

    Tools of Japan

    Nothing really wrong with them and the design seems good as well(I also quite like the finish). My "gripe" was that it didn't really seems like the users force applied was being transmitted into the jaws but I haven't used them in a real world scenario, just messing around a bit with random...

    Ya they seem ok, fantastic for the price but I think they get a little too overhyped on here. Like I said thou, for the price they are amazing, I’m just a bit of a pliers snob lol.
