I'm conflicted. I picked up this USA Wilton 5" bench vise at an estate sale that the jaws are in decent shape, its missing the pipe jaws underneath however. But I also have this Cman 6" USA vise that I picked up not even a month ago. I had to make a locknut for the Cman one and I made it longer...

My first welding project, made a mobile cart for my new blast cabinet. I also learned how metal seems to bend out of alignment after welding it, I was 4 degrees off from plumb vertically and I would never forgive myself if I left it like that so I had to cut the joints halfway back, bend it...

I've had this wooden tool chest sitting in the back corner of the house's storage room for a friend for years now. There's a small amount of warping on the top cabinet but nothing serious, it has a shelf on the inside as well. The tool box is a combination of either solid walnut planks or thick...

Trying to clean out some ‘reserves’ from two families as well as my own. All prices include shipping, willing to consider offers as well (please no low ballers)! All are shipped priority mail or first class WITH INSURANCE. Can include extra insurance if requested (priority mail will come with...

Finally I am no longer bound by not having a table saw. Just got around to taking pictures after picking up these two old pieces of iron. Both of these were picked up only for $100 and with their original motors still just as strong as new :shocking: First up is a fully restored Delta 34-600...

Does anyone make these kinds of ratcheting wrenches that are a more standard length? The only ones I see are extra long ones that cost over $100. If none exist, what would be considered second best? Should I get double box non flex or the double box that has the offset on it already?

I'm building a circuit for auxillary electric cooling fans for my truck that uses a capillary thermostat to control a relay, however, I wanted to tie said thermostat to only activate the relay when the truck is in the RUN position (the circuit will be open when the car is off or starting). I...

Craftsman/Armstrong/KD/Allen Tools USA Craftsman most preferred, followed by Armstrong and KD/Allen I'm looking to completely fill the voids in my sets for working on other's vehicles (and for OCD esque reasons). Current posted prices are for sockets that are between like new and lighter use...

I picked up this Cornwell SR4 ratchet from an estate sale today and was wondering as to its rarity/value. The internals still work perfectly and the only information I can find is that its from around the 30's or 40's. Anyone else have any info on it?

So I'm in the market for a better wrench organizer that holds my Craftsman RP wrenches snugly and doesn't let them slide or fall out while being carried. So I stumbled upon the Tekton 15 wrench organizer which fits nearly perfectly, however, I was wondering if anyone else has used these for RP...

I'm curious to how people come to conclusion that the craftsman toolboxes are of subpar quality and construction. I've owned the Craftsman homeowners box that was at the sears outlet for about 3 years now and have had no problems with it despite all the work I do out of it and surviving a move...

Normally I'm not one to brag over tools, but even quiet birds need to sing once in a while. Went to both HF during their parking lot sales and picked up a score of a lifetime, a new personal record! 6-inch jointer, BRAND NEW, $30. Its the older stock and the manager had these sitting for the...

I have an 8 gallon husky compressor that is 4.5 SCFM at 90psi and would like to get into some sand blasting my restoration projects that I can't reach with a wire wheel. If I use a hopper fed blaster that uses a 20oz hopper, could I get away with only using the 8 gallon for 1 hopper full or...
