    looking at 1/4 Torque wrenches

    CDI if you use it professionally. I have a Tekton 3/8 and 1/4. The 1/4 in. one had problems after a year as a aviation tech. They sent me a new one with no problems. Definitely recommend Tekton and Capri because of great CS.

    2023 Home Depot deals/sales/clearance thread

    Don’t know if it is like this anymore. This is going back quite a bit. When I worked at Home Depot on the old AS 400 you could look up what percentage markup they used for each item. In the special order books it will tell you the markup or markdown for each vendor typically special orders were...

    My A/C Died...How Much?

    I will check the capacitor again. I have had them check good but some of the oil leaked out. Also, maybe try hard start kit. Did you ever ohm out the compressor? If it is tripping within a second it’s probably is bad but I will confirm anyway.
