Got 2 '27 snap on sockets, both 1/2" drive, 7/8" and 3/4" the 3/4 one is very worn. check out the difference. It looks more like the newer style modern sockets that grip the 'flats' rather than the corners. Seen this before ? were there different makers for Snap on? I thought it...

Just wanted to share what My dad and I worked on the last couple weeks. We were inspired by some of you guys on here. My brother acquired a bead roller , a Central Machinery type. Worked OK, but we wanted to power it electrically so it was easier to work the piece. We ended up using a garage...

My Brother lost part of his finger and high sensitivity to the cold. He tried battery heated gloves, he said they work, but it uses up the batteries pretty quickly. Pretty sure he only used them for a couple months, and now just wears regular gloves.
