I am looking to get a set of metric Snap On socket end wrenches. I have a couple of them and I really like them. My question is, when did they first make these? I prefer the vintage look. Thanks.

Hey guys, I don't know much about woodworking so bear with me. I have discovered the practice of repurposing. I have an almost unlimited supply of old furniture that my neighbors are regularly throwing out in the alley. Almost always, there is some kind of finish, whether it be a stain or...

I actually scored this a month or so ago, but just now am figuring out how to upload photos, so I thought I would share it here. It is a Snap On Modis cabinet, free on Craigslist, just come pick it up. Well, it was a crappy drive way out to a burb on the eastside, but ended up being worth it. I...

I am having trouble posting my photos, they keep coming out sideways. I can't figure out how to rotate them after previewing my post, or any way after upload to make sure they are the direction I want them to be. What's the trick?

I know a lot of guys are big on SK ratchets...I was wondering how they are about providing rebuild kits? If my ratchet breaks, will they send me a kit for free?

I have been searching through ads on Craigslist for a new utility cart, and I keep seeing lots of these Blue Point carts with 4 drawers. It looks like a scaled down version of my Mac c art, which is what I am looking for. Does anyone have one of these carts? How good is it? Would you say it is...

I recently discovered that we have a brand new Graymills 16 gallon parts washer at the hospital that no one has taken the time and effort to set up yet. I thought it would be a good thing to have up and running, so I am taking it on myself to set it up. Okay, I admit it, I have a selfish motive...

There used to be a couple of swap meets at the drive-in theaters, but l believe they are long gone. Does anyone know of any good ones left?

l found a great deal on Ebay for some 3/4" Wright tools last night, from 3 separate auctions, all from the same seller. 2 foot ratchet (lightly used), 23 inch breaker bar (new), and two 3" extensions (new) for $100...

I am wondering how old this box might be, and what the measurements are. https://seattle.craigslist.org/sno/tls/5447296617.html

Several years ago I was without storage space and I packed up all my tools into bags and boxes and stored them on the side of the house where I was living for about 3 years. When l moved l discovered that a pile of them had fallen over and gotten wet. How long they sat in water, l don't know. l...

I found this cabinet on the Mac site and it is showing it as "not available." Does anyone know Mac well enough to know if this means that they will have them again in the future, or if it is unlikely? Thanks...

I am trying to find ways to create more storage in our townhouse so that the garage can be used as my shop only. Currently the garage has all of my tools, plus a bunch of **** that has nowhere else to go. One solution I have considered is putting flooring in the attic and storing boxes up there...

The back story: The hospital where l work is located in an upscale residential neighborhood, and they are bent on getting people to find alternative forms of transportation, to reduce the size of our traffic footprint. As the hospital grows, the demand for parking grows. The hospital has decided...

As you can see from this Craigslist ad, marijuana is now used as currency in the state of Washington ;) http://seattle.craigslist.org/see/tls/5448048163.html

I am wanting to dip my toes into used tool reselling. I like the idea of buying a box full of tools, selling off some and maybe keeping some targeted items. Here is an older Snap On box full of mostly Craftsman tools. Please tell me whether you think this would be a good candidate, what you...

I was on the Snap On and Mac sites yesterday and one of them (I believe Mac) has a link for information on getting a tool truck and becoming a distributor. Does anyone here have a truck, or had one in the past, or maybe has a close friend that knows the ins and outs of the tool truck racket? If...

I am looking for some great all-around snips/shears for work. General cutting, not trying to cut rebar ;) I want to say there is a great German company but I can't find the name. I am looking for a design similar to these...

I am always looking at tools and boxes on Craigslist. Occasionally there will be a prompt at the bottom of the screen that says "Few local results. Here are some from nearby areas" and they will show listings from other cities near me such as Portland, Bellingham, Wenatchee and, occasionally...
