Looking to get a few tools in for work but I'm tire of chrome issues, yes its under warranty but I'd rather not deal with it at all. So my question is: does anyone know who to speak with to get an non chromed tool. When I spoke to Snap On, truck and industrial they both said not possible. So...

Had the Cornwell dealer who stops at my shop price out a couple tool sets. His price on sale was only $50 cheaper than Snap On's quote. I'm constantly told Cornwell is cheaper than Snap On but I haven't seen any significant difference. Is it just my guy or did something change?

Have a small tool kit I'm making to grab and go for odd jobs. I am trying to figure out how to organize my socket sets, right now I'm only working on is 3/8 drive deep and shallow metric and SAE sockets. I thought of using the klien zip up bags by sticking the metric shorts in one, deeps in...

Been building up a road kit from pawn shop finds of USA sockets when the idea struck me to build a set from each USA manufacturer of sockets I can find. So far I have Husky, Kobalt, Proto, Williams, Mac, Snap On, Stanley, Craftsman, Blackhawk, SK Wayne, Thorsen, Indestro Super, Action. I am...

Selling a set of Craftsman Professional wrenches, USA made. Sizes are 5/8 to 1 5/16 with a 1 1/2. No owners markings, minor scuffs from use on a few wrenches. Willing to trade for 3/4 drive SAE USA made impact socket set, preferably 3/4 to 2" or Snap On flank drive plus 7 piece SAE wrench set...

Tired of my 1/4 sockets always flopping around on a long extensions, I found one by USAG PT# U02410301, that is adjustable tension that interests me, but I can only find it over seas so fair amount of shipping, $26. What is your home brew solution? I've tried o-rings but none hold tight enough...

Looking for the original manufacturer of USA made cam lock hose pinch or shut off pliers. Bluepoint, Cornwell and craftsman all seemed to use the same style just different handle colors. Anyone know who made these for them? Sorry still can't get pictures to upload and the link is looong. Thanks

My work bought two battery chargers by R-N Industries. These are the high end models and run around $420 each, model number H624. Absolutely one time where buying something based on being USA was a bad choice. Paint job is terrible, sheet metal fitment is sloppy, screws are crooked, cheap little...

Just like the title says. Seems like all the ratcheting wrenches I've been looking at are spline drive; EZ-Red, Proto, Matco. Why is this drive so popular with manufactures? I've used the test ones on the trucks and frankly they don't impress me. They chew up the fastener and the ones one the...

Does any one find they often use the offset of the wrench to access a nut or bolt? By this I mean using the inside angle of the box end to reach under something and turn the nut. The wrenches I am considering changing over to are only available in a zero offset so I'm curious if that hinders...

I work for a heavy equipment dealer and ended up making a custom tool cart from two of the Harbor Freight red carts ( I'll try to post it here shortly) to hold my everyday tools. So now I might get into my tool truck brand tool box once or twice a day for a specialty tool but it doesn't do a...

Currently have a set of Blue Point/ Williams reversible ratcheting wrenches but I would like something a bit longer like the Snap On but I don't care for the flank drive or the lack of larger sizes (bigger than 3/4). Armstrong is almost what I'd like but they also stop at 3/4 if you can find...

Need a 3+ pound hammer, preferably a 'drilling' style. Stanley/proto/mac has one in their antivibe. But how effective is it compared to a hickory or fiberglass handle? I have a 32oz ball peen by Snap On, when really wailing on a pin I feel a bit of vibration, not bad but uncomfortable. Is there...

I am looking for a locker to hang on my box (KRL1001). My SO dealer can get me a locker for it with a couple hundred knocked off list but none are what I'm looking for. So they will need to be modified (basically going to make one shelf a pull out workstation for a laptop). In place of the Snap...

Bought a used Snap On interchangeable puller set on the organization board but it is missing a couple pieces, the pieces are going to cost about $500 to get from Snap On, so I was thinking of selling it and going with the SPX pullers Lonestar tools sells for $1200. Has anyone used SPX pullers...

I have drawers, mostly shallow from the red harbor freight tool carts. If you need one to fix up or modify yours let me know what you are looking for, thanks.

I am looking for a #3 Phillips screwdriver that isn't a foot long and would be comparable to my #2 100mm or ~4inches. Does anyone make such a thing besides Tekton? (I don't care for Tekton's handles). Thanks :beer:

I have a full length hutch on my box and I am looking to replace it with something like what is in the pictures, but I can't figure out what to call it or a part number. Thanks for the help

WTB I am looking to for 3/4 drive impact sockets, metric and standard. Along with extensions and universal. I prefer Proto or USA Williams but am open to others. Let me know what you have. I am also looking an Aircat 3/4 gun on the off chance someone wants to get rid of theirs, thanks.

Neiko and astro both have an 8 piece drum brake kit, (identical but for the coloring). I am curious what the black square tool in the bottom left corner of the case is for. I'I'd link to it but the address is crazy long. Thanks for the help guys
