Here is the 1/4" metric service set I keep in my "road box". Mostly 1988/1989 Snap On 1/4" metric set (33 total pieces). Came in a KRA-275A. Sockets: Shallow/deep flank drive chrome 6 point 4-15mm (no 5.5mm) (new logo) Drive tools: 8" OAL Hard handle flex head ratchet...

Is this serious? I'm not asking because I think it's 'ridiculous' or anything like that. Sarcasm and satire generally get lost in written text. Don't want to be wasting my time. Whatever. Here it goes. You didn't say what kind of tools you are trying to polish. Chrome? Plastic? Rubber? Smooth...

I worked as a ski tuner for years and have tried a decent number of brands and types out there. I don't know what you're going to be using them for, but some of the "ski tuning files" are head and shoulders above most hardware store stuff. They're not even in the same category as far as I'm...

Have you ever used a "Saddle Square"? I have a Veritas one that comes in handy when doing repeated woodworking layout. Allows you to mark 2 sides at a time instead of the 1.

#1: Snap On FHNF100 AKA EXCALIBUR! WHY? - 100 Teeth make for very little slop and virtually no wasted motion. As fine as the teeth are, I have yet to blow one of these out. Full disclosure, I generally don't reef on it super hard - that's what the impact or breaker bar is for. - At ~12.5"...

Personally, the SO round head ratchets are the ones I reach for first 99% of the time. I have the 1/4" 72 tooth swivel head (THNF72), the 3/8" 100 tooth non-swivel head (FN100), and my personal favorite the 3/8" 100 tooth swivel head (FHNF100). I call the FHNF100 ratchet "Excalibur". It's as...

Here's something I came across during a non specific tool **** meandering. 1955 Mercedes Gullwing Tool Kit Includes Red Leather Pouch Here is the link to the original posting...

I was going to say it looks like a homemade "2x" bar that could be used to persuade 2x4s,2x6s, etc. in all sorts of ways during framing, decking, demo, etc. Barrel handling tool makes sense though.

UPDATE: Well, I talked to the seller. It was the same old story - The ~90 year old father of a friend of his was selling off all his old tools / stock and the seller happened to be in the right place at the right time. He said the older man had a LOT more factory new tools and boxes (Plomb...

I do the same for all my tools, and +1 for the surprise you get when you can, at any time, see down to the penny how much $$$ you have invested. Attn OP: I would check with your insurance provider about the details of your policy. I checked specifically with my insurance (State Farm), and they...

I just stumbled across this box on Craigslist San Diego: https://sandiego.craigslist.org/nsd/tls/5335642919.html BNIB1965 Snap On KRA26 I didn't even know these came in a cardboard box originally. $650 seems like a fair price considering the age and condition. What do you guys think...

Absolutely. If that person were suddenly gone tomorrow, you'd be grateful for any of the damage/misuse they caused.

#1: Snap On FNHF100 #2: Snap On FBF80

I have a box of 'old'/duplicate tools in storage that I will exhume and go through when I have a chance.

Are those city or highway miles? Jesus...

Yes. The Starrett tap wrenches are TOP NOTCH. The ones that come with the Snap On set are fine. They get the job done without any problems, but if you want to be left speechless by the build quality get the Starretts. Keep in mind, I'm not talking about the taps or dies. I'm specifically...

I have the Snap On TDTDM500A | $396.00 . It's made in USA and a very comprehensive set. The case has additional space for small items like extra taps/dies or drill bits. It has met all of my needs so far. The dies are adjustable so you can control how aggressively you want to cut the threads...

Hello boys and girls, I have been in the market for a 'high-end' tire pressure gauge for a little while now, but have not pulled the trigger on any specific offering due to the fact that I have no idea how to gauge (pun) the reliability of a pressure gauge. There are a few nice looking ones on...

Why is there not already a sticky for threads like this?

The amount of criticism that this guy's box has garnered is hilarious. Why won't you guys just admit that this guy made a really cool box? Because he DID!
