Has anyone ever sold their entire socket collection and started over? That's what I'm seriously considering doing. Right now I've got two small 3/8 sets from Williams (50665 & 50663), I really like these sets and use them fairly often. Of all my sockets these are the only sets that I'm...

First of all I'm not sure which forum I should post this in so if this isn't the right place I apologise. I've been working the last couple weeks on an 1800 sq/ft hardwood floor job. Getting very close to wrapping it up. Started base and trim today. For the last few days there's been a HVAC...

Right now between my shop and work truck I've got four cordless drills. One Dewalt and three Bosch. One of the Bosch drills is 5-6 years old. The other two Bosch drills are 2-3 years old. The Dewalt I bought a few months ago. They all have what I consider to be junk chucks. Constantly Chuck...

Submitted an offer on a house this morning. If all goes well looks like we'll be moving in a couple months. It's 45 minutes from our current location but much closer to my wife's work. Which is what prompted our move. I don't like her having to drive an hour home from work at midnight. On top...

Does anyone make a small screwdriver bit holder/bit box that's small enough to drop in a tool belt and not take up the entire pocket? I'm constantly working with different type fasteners. And keeping a bunch of single bits in my shirt pocket is ******* me off. Constantly falling out every time...

Who made the yellow and blue handled screwdrivers for Napa?Handle is marked made in Germany. I've got a couple older ones and always liked them. Napa doesn't stock them anymore or at least my local one doesn't. I'd like a full set if I could find them.

A while back Milwaukee announced that they would be producing 9 amp hour batteries. I've been patiently waiting but haven't really heard anything else about them since the initial press release. Any news on these batteries? Approximate cost or info on where to buy?

Have I got a story for you guys. I had a small box of misc sockets (mostly Craftsman USA) floating around my shop for some time now so I decided to list them on Ebay. When the auction ended the buyer contacted me and asked if I had any other Craftsman USA sockets I would be willing to part...

What's the best way to remove rust from the inside of a socket? I picked up a small set of used SK sockets the other day and most of them have rust on the inside. I'm not really interested in sitting down with a brush and some kind of penetrating fluid and scrubbing the inside. Maybe there is...

I've lurked here off and on for quite a while and thought I might as well join up so I could partake in the fun. I'm a self employed General Contractor from KY. I do mostly residential construction and remodels and a ton of service/maintenance work. Been working for myself since 2006 and...
