Found this oldie for sale Locally for $80. 1-1/16 is cracked, and all sizes below it are Craftsman. 1-1/16 and up are SK. Ratchet handle is bent, but functional. I think $80 is a bit steep. What say the experts?

Stopped at TSC the other night to get some nozzle dip for my welder. Came across a set of needle nose pliers and side cutter for $8. I was intrigued so brought them home. Definitely not old school quality but not too bad, I guess time will tell. Anyone else have these?

Somehow, I have made it wrenching for 20+ years, without needing a set of 1/2 drive deep impact sockets. The time has come, and my other impact sets are Sunex, but all over 20 years old. In that time I have failed 2 of them, a 7/8 shallow, when doing a lot of bottom end work on 3406 Cat motors...

Got an old Emglo wheelbarrow compressor that lives in back of my truck. It's due for an oil change, so looking for a good synthetic to ease winter starts. Any suggestions on kinds, and places to get some?

Idk why, but bought a set of these at Menards over the weekend. Pretty impressive performance, used it to pull a variety of nails replacing some soffit. Think it might make a fair cotter pin getter-outer too! Anyone else got one?

An acquaintance has one of these for sale for $150. Updated to 2009, has all cables and case. Says I can try it out if Interested. Newest vehicle we have is 05, and I don't anticipate this changing for awhile. Just used for DIY stuff. I already have a Bosch 1200 scan tool that I get along with...

Has this been released yet, or is SK just tempting us with pre-sale ads? I need this in the worst way!

Snagged a pair at a pawnshop for $10 over the weekend. Never seen them before, and I can tell why...they are about as clumsy to use as they are to look at. Still had to have them for my collection. Here is a representative photo.

I had like the first one anybody around here had seen. Used it hard for years with 12v batteries. Had it rebuilt, then my batteries died, but I've still got it. Worth getting a battery rebuild or not?

Seems like my shop press is always one of the most cluttered areas of my shop. Press plates, bearing splitters, old bearing races, lock collars, lengths of DOM tubing, couple short length of RR rail....all that **** you keep around because you'll end up needing it sooner or later to get out of a...

Had this for years, and it finally cracked beyond repair. Can't seem to find one like it anywhere.

My old Amprobe is getting pretty hammered, and I stumbled across a used Fluke T5-600 last week for 30. Haven't really used it much, but I do like the open jaw ammeter. Anyone else use one?

Snagged this off a garage sale for $10 a few weeks back. Never seen another. It's stenciled "Dental Supplies" on the side. Hurts just to see that!

Nabbed these goodies off a garage sale for $1. Any idea what the Pexto pliers are for?

Why is it the pics I take with my IPhone are sharp and clear, but when I post them here they are always grainy and out of focus in my threads?

Garage sale this morning. Nothing priced so brought these up to the lady and asked how much? "Dollar" she replied, not even looking up from her book! Wasn't going to argue! Diamond, Crestoloy and a J H Williams. The pliers are Pexto.....any idea what they are intended for?

Any idea if Mac warranty covers these? P/N is PB951. Can barely read that phoney-assed laser etching. Wonder what happens if it wears off?

Picked these up in a shoebox full of snap ring pliers. Never seen anything like it. Anyone else got one? Marked Churchill 7066

Attended the auction of the largest hoard of stuff I have ever seen in my life. 3 auctioneers selling 3 rings all day, from 10AM until after 6pm. About halfway through, the crowd thinned out quite a bit, and the deals came on strong! Wright 320 NH 3/4 ratchet. Rusty but very functional. $15...

Found a mag drill advertised locally for $100. Seller claims it works fine,but that the magnetic base is weak, and won't hold drill securely. It energizes, and does not appear to be shorted, just weak. Any idea if this can be repaired? Doesn't look like B&D supports it anymore. No surprise...
