    Going to look at a snap on classic 60 tomorrow. He was asking 800, now down to 700. Says its 6 months old in like new condition. Lost his job and is moving so needs to sell. Good deal?

    Most used Extension lengths

    I'm getting ready to order some 1/4 and 3/8 sk extensions as my extension selection is pathetic. Is it necessary to have extensions 2" apart? seems a bit excessive to me. SK 3/8 set 4536 has 1.5, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10. Also is it worth having big wobble sets? I'm thinking a few shorter ones and just...

    I'm setting up my 60 gallon air compressor and was wondering about placement of the filter regulator. I have a 1/2" filter regulator and a 1/2" hose reel to go with it.

    I'm looking at the 3/8x 50ft hose reel at harbor freight. Is there enough room to put 1/2x50 hose on it? Not worried about the swivel, I'll probably make one if it doesnt work.

    Snap on rubber drawer detents

    Does Anyone have these snap on drawer detents on their tool box that could measure them for me? Probably height and height of the groove mostly. Reason I ask, these are just like whats on my masterforce box from menards. When it gets cold they're a bear to open and close. So if these would fit...

    Propane or kerosene radiant heater...

    I'm looking for a heater to use in my shop, 40x40 with 14ft ceiling plus peak. Its a pole building, not a hint of insulation. I would insulate and heat it the right way but it's the inlaws and I can't see justifying it. So under the conditions I was thinking a radiant heater to just focus on...
