fcpeuro has it for $176, I've no idea if that is a good buy. Fcpeuro is a reputable parts vendor.

Thanks LG, you were absolutely correct. Amazon sent an Alemite B6783, even though the description showed the part number as B6703 (that would have been a 12" flexible hose with coupler). The B6783 I received does indeed match the picture, a nice piece of Made In USA goodness (that I never knew I...

And now, about 90 minutes later, the $31.77 priced economy handle version has disappeared, but the 82 02 200 (fancier handles version) is now available to order at $35.10 with a "Temporarily Out of Stock" note. Amazon as the seller.

The 82 01 200 (economy handles) are again available, $31.77 with shipping dates August 25 - September 30. Amazon as the seller.

The new Knipex slip joint pliers, 82 02 200, are now on Amazon for $34.13 with a July 30 to Sept 4 ship date. These are the push button slip joints and have the fancier handles. This is about $11 cheaper than I've found elsewhere. Edit to add: The 82 01 200 (economy handles) now available for...

Used both last weekend replacing a brake line on a 2001 Mercedes e320. Tube nut is 11mm and the bleeder is 9mm. Oops - I replied too fast, you are commenting on sockets, and my example was wrenches. Sorry!

Nicely done - great reasoning. These are gorgeous, any chance you could post a pic of the other side of them? Also, any differences you'd note between the two sizes? Either one feel better to you?

I've used Purdy 144380430 White Bristle Series Sprig Flat Trim Paint Brush, 3 inch several times and have no complaints, but I'm certainly no expert at this. Same Minwax solvent based polyurethane.

Yes, it is rated from DC to 50kHz. I've been quite impressed by mine, nice quality.

No, you'll regret using a pipe wrench, get a pin wrench. I used a small c clamp to hold the pin on mine engaged, while using a cheater pipe to generate enough torque on my O'Boy. Just my opinion, but I know I'd be angry at myself if I chewed it up with a pipe wrench. My pin wrench came from...

Those red handled ones are the 930 series, I really like them. They have a nice heft, the feel is total quality.

Yes - this is the issue. The regulator absolutely has an IN and an OUT. The OUT pressure is balanced against a diaphragm and (adjustable) spring, and allows air from the IN to pass as necessary. You can't connect it backwards and expect it to function.

Replaceable tips certainly are a consideration, but a 980 will get into places an impact driver can't. There's an application for each of them, best to have both.

Pizza is right on the money. The 930 has a wonderful feel to it, nice heavy weight and balance. The 980 is great when you need the impact feature, but otherwise the 930 wins hands down. I bought a 930 in the #2x100 size to try out. The Jawsfit is great, and the fit is snug into a screw head...

Exactly - it is a classic DUI (Done Using It).

Re: Vintage Snap-On toolbox If you can remove the chrome pieces then this advice might help: I had a similar situation with a Gerstner box I inherited from my brother. It had been in a damp location for many years and the nickel plated corner pieces, rear hinge assemblies, and two large side...

That hasn't been my experience. It isn't like a motor that starts up with Locked Rotor Amps, the tig starts with very little load on the transformer secondaries. No significant caps that I'm aware of. Circuit breakers are pretty slow - obviously not like heaters on a proper motor...

Why doesn't Astro make tire machines and balancers?

An A+ for Svt_ivan - super fast shipping, and the measurer(erer) is better than described. No worries buying from him.

Hazet and Wiha also have advent calendars, check out the .de version of amazon. Prices in euros and they include German VAT, so the price drops 19% as VAT comes off, goes up 10% as you convert to US$, and then add shipping. No US import duties unless you build your order to over $800.
