    Monster Tools MST895

    I have tried to get in touch with alleged "Monster Dealers" and there are none left in business near me or have not returned messages I left. Has anybody used this wrench extender before? https://www.monstermobiletools.com/product/15-monster-bar-wrench-extender/ Is it worth continuing to try...

    Air vs battery tools

    Aside from tire inflation tools and blow gun I seldom use air these days. The convenience of cordless is undeniable provided you have charged batteries at the ready. I would plumb in a couple of air lines where you think you'll need them for tools that will not be battery powered and still...

    Tig welder

    I sold my Miller EconoTig a few years back and got an Everlast 200DV. Going from the older transformer machine to a new inverter was amazing. I know they are not on your list but IMO you should check them out.

    KRL Slide Lube

    Following the book on this one. All slides are cleaned and reinstalled without grease. Some have a little marring from grit in the grease but they are still miles better than before. If I pull them apart again before I kick the bucket I'll look into replacing some of them. Thanks for the...

    KRL Slide Lube

    I am going through all of the slides on my new to me KRL1003 and have about half of them run through the solvent tank so far. They are smooth as glass right now a huge improvement over the stiff messes they were before. I've read threads going back over 10 years with no definite answer on...

    Snap on box upgrade

    Thanks for the reply. So far everything is finding a home and the organizing has started. Drawer liners material will be delivered next week and cut to size. That wide top drawer is amazing. Hard to imagine living without it now. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk

    Snap on box upgrade

    I have been using a KRA heritage setup for a minute now. This weekend the stars aligned and I came across a deal that I could not pass up on a KRL-1003. Wow this thing is HEAVY! Going to make some drawer liners this week and get everything moved over. Then make a top for it to replace the...

    6 vs 12 point sockets

    my Snappy 7-19mm wrenches are all 6pt and 12pt after that..... They should just stop making 6pt line wrenches since 12pt are so much better too. I'm on board with the fact that most folks here advocating for 12pt on everything have not worked on anything that has spent a few winters here in...

    Exterior Concrete Slab Question

    Great, thank you very much for all of the experience and wisdom, I really appreciate it. I will give it a month to contract after the pour and cut and then re-evaluate.

    Exterior Concrete Slab Question

    Will daytime snow melt that drains into the control cuts and freezes at night be a problem? That was my primary reason for the joint filler. If it is not something I need to worry about then I will leave it alone.

    Exterior Concrete Slab Question

    Thank you for the knowledge, will fiber reinforcement help to avoid the cracking or should I be prepared to just live with it if it happens? Also I fully expect the cracks at the control joints, is this what you're referring to or will these shrinkage cracks be in addition to what will happen...

    Exterior Concrete Slab Question

    Yes the plan was the cut 1.75-2in deep. I was under the impression that more steel would result in less cracks not more.
