I have been thinking of upgrading lately, currently have RP USA Craftsman. I watched the testing video. Snap On are not justified for how often I use them. The Matco's are more in line with my price range, however I found NOS stock Craftsman Professional USA locally and wonder how they would...

Just got an early Christmas gift of a Dewalt Tough system 2.0 and looking for some organization ideas. I'll be using it to haul tools for different projects around between shop to house to junk yard to Mom and Dad's place etc. Tool load will change for the task. I like these except for the...

Needing crimper suggestions for Anderson sb120 plugs for 6awg wire. Have several plugs to to do.

Was at Lowes today and noticed a lot of the south wire stuff was replaced with Ideal. Even looked like they had the Pratt-read made cushion gripped screwdrivers. Finely I can replace some older worn Craftsmans, always liked them better than my Kleins.

Found this on a local ad for some tools. Can any one identify who the manufacturer is? The only picture I have. Box is 21x6.75x4. Sounds like it would be a big enough for a complete 3/4 set.

Is Wiha 3k series screwdrivers dead? I was hoping to up grade my screwdrivers little by little and have been happy with my 3k ball end hex drivers.

I have an off shore made drill press that I would like to mount a drill press vice on.

So I'm trying to plan out a bench build. I already have a set of Tennsco bench legs https://www.zoro.com/tennsco-flared-leg-3-12-w-x-30-d-x-32-h-gray-l-3230-med-grey/i/G5442543/ I have ruled out using an old solid core door, butcher block would be nice but out the price range. A piece of...

I have Century 87105c manual battery charger that is acting up. After about 10-15 minutes of operation the voltage starts fluttering. 3-4 volts. Does this in both in 10a and 2amp modes. The charger is nothing special, but I hate tossing things that might be repairable. I'm thinking the thermal...

I'm in the process of building a new, heavier workbench. I'm going to use some store bought steel legs and solid core door for a top. Topped off with masonite. What fasteners should I use. Its a pressed wood core.

My little shop is an unheated tool shed. The only thing I have a rust issue with is my Wilde made pry bars. Any secret treatments? They hang out in a Sunex pry bar rack on the side of my tool chest.

So I picked up a Morgan Milwaukee Model 40 the other day from an antique mall. Less than $100 with tax, just an ok deal. Has been slim pickings for a while for US made vises in my area. I has some surface rust, still has the blue paint on it. Seems to be neglected rather than abused. Would you...

As my tool collection has grown so has my stuff covers. I have an older US general series 1 41" and side cabinet and a series 2 56" top, bottom, and locker. That I would like to have keyed a like. Has any one tried this yet? Possible to get from HF. I know it was possible for the series 1 top s...

First off, I had to make a pit stop while running my service route. Stoped at Home Depot and spotted a 200 piece socket set. All sockets no bits, wrenches, or ratchets on returned /clearance shelf. Looked up the price on their web site and was listed for 199. Marked down to 75, and got 10%...

One has popped on Craig's list. Looks lightly used and US production. I know they are still in production, but made off shore now and retail for $175ish. They are asking 100. Looks like this one.

Starting on a car rebuild that was crashed. Need some recommendations for auto body tools. This will be an on going project time and money coincide. Will have to cut and weld some panels. I already have grinders, welder, and most basic tools. Won't be painting any time soon.

Couple of weeks ago I posted if was worth upgrading from a brushed Dewalt DCF883 3/8" impacted to the brushless DCH890. I haven't pulled the trigger on that yet. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=425927 So this week I found a deal on a hammer drill impact driver set. I...

To start with I'm committed to the 20v platform. I already have the big boy DCF899 1/2 impact. Great tool but HEAVY. I already have the DCF883 but can't help wondering if the DCF890 would be an worthy improvement. I can not find any direct comparisons between the 2. DCF883 brushed, 130 ft lbs...
