    #$@&ing Tweakers!

    You never mentioned why you didnt shoot them... A 180 grain 30.06 bullet will cover that distance a helluva lot faster than you or I would. Look on the bright side, you still have your drill press. Sorry about your break-in. Munsk

    8 Years after moving in - The Airboxer Garage

    First, I must compliment you on a very nice setup. Second, I curse you for making me want a vintage Porsche! They look amazing!! Last, kudos for owning German tools... There are a lot of German items that I brought back, but I would have NEVER thought to bring back TOOLS!!!! I'm such a dunce!!!

    Give a real life example of how a premium brand screwdriver worked better

    Cheap Sockets = Thick walled sometimes don't fit in tight areas. Priemium = higher quality tool steel = thinner walls. The reasons go on and on

    Give a real life example of how a premium brand screwdriver worked better

    If you have to ask, you just don't get it. My SO screwdrivers look almost as good as the day I bought them. I had a cheaper Stanley 3/8 Dr Ratchet that worked good until I dropped it. It exploded. I have a SO ratchet that is 3/8 Dr but is the size of their 1/4 Dr. I haven't seen any chinese...

    Strange Vise

    That is the shop that it was in, GSE. Camp Dodge, IA. I don't really understand the teeth on the backside of the Static jaw. Why are they common in a GSE shop? Munsk.

    Strange Vise

    Has anyone ever seen a vise like this one? I was at a shop in Iowa, doing some training and they had about 4 vises just like this one. No brand names, no numbers, nothing. I couldn't quite figure it out. My best guess is that the Dynamic jaw can be removed and placed in the opposite side. I...

    Snap On Ratchet Handle Question

    My Snap-On guy has had the HH ratchets in 1/4 & 3/8 on his truck for the last couple months. He often gets promos in and has them until they sell out. After that, you never know when they will be back. I missed out on a set of orange hammers and waited about 4 months before he got a set back in...

    Who sells a high quality, direct fit OE replacement bumper cover?

    I called a local auto body shop that had a great reputation. I was looking for 02 mirrors towing mirrors to put on my 96 Cummins. They weren't an option in 96, but the trucks have the same body style, so I thought I could make them work. They are awesome. I asked where they bought their OEM...

    Finally got lucky on craigslist

    You got a great deal IMO. The only problem is... Now you have to buy a Corvette! HA! I think I'd remove the decals and put a Farmall emblem where the 'Vette emblem is. Or sell it on Egay for more than you paid. There is some 'Vette owner out there that would probably LOVE to have that! Either...
