Would somebody be kind enough to educate this woodworker / sometimes bicycle & motorcycle mechanic on the functional difference between the various methods of keeping one's impact socket from flying off the impact wrench? Advantages and disadvantages of each, as well as recommendation on the...

Home Depot is doing 30% off Gladiator Garage Storage, now through 7/16/2014. It looks like pretty much everything GG that HD carries, online & in store, is included. I'll be getting myself one of the Cleanup-Caddys at $16.09.

So I had my son pick up the Wilton in the photos, and I haven't been able to find a clear ID on it yet. The vise is down in Las Vegas at the moment, it should make it up here sometime in the next 3 weeks. Until then, I only have these pics to go on. Obviously not the best-est of condition...

So, I'm looking at getting some breaker bars, which, once I recently figured out what the heck they're for, seem like they would've come in mighty handy a few times in the past and likely a few in the future. Recommendations for 3/8" and 1/2", including length suggestions. The second question...

What's the consensus on these puppies? I found a set of 3 Made in USA NIB, thinking of picking 'em up.

I would like to upgrade my garage/shop floor in order to address two issues. The #1 issue is the blasted concrete is HARD (and cold in the winter), as in my dogs are barking far sooner than I would like. The second issue is powercords across the floor. Now, the constraints: 1) I rent...

Does ANYBODY make a decent f'ing worklight? I've at least a half-dozen over the years, maybe as many as a dozen, by different manufacturers, and EVERY single one of them is a piece of ****! My latest, which I got several years ago, is very, very similar to this: The color is identical...

So, I've got some Gladiator GearTrack for hanging a Premier Gearbox, and I also want to hang some other stuff from it. Looking around the Gladiator site, I didn't see anything useful for hanging MY OWN stuff from the track. I'm not about to spend $30-$40 for a single shelf. Does anybody make...

it's the cordless drill with a spade bit. Tools migrating to the kitchen!!! Pie, anyone? :drool:

The title succinctly frames the question, but perhaps a little detail will make more sense. I'm planning on building a high quality (but not truck quality) set of sockets for general use and working on my motorcycles, along with whatever modest car maintenance I'll be doing. What I don't quite...

I'm looking at getting a 50' air hose reel, and noted that Harbor Freight has theirs in the upcoming Parking Lot Sale for $65. I'm a woodworker primarily, and do some maintenance and such on my motorcycles, so the reel won't be heavily used. With that in mind, is the HF reel likely to hold up...

I recently picked up a pair of the Husky 3 drawer intermediate boxes ($40 each) for my "backwall" unit, and I was cutting some shelf liner for them today. I've stacked the boxes, using a piece of 1/2" plywood wrapped with shelf liner (to keep them from sliding around) as a spacer, since they...

Well, I was building myself a lumber cut-off storage cart today when I had something unusual happen that I've not encountered before. While running some pocket screws using my lit'l schweet Bosch 12v impact driver, I had the screwdriver bit blow apart. I've been driving Phillips head screws my...

I've been visiting GJ for a few years now, but haven't joined because most of my garagey-ness is oriented towards woodworking. Most, not all. I figured I'd join since I have some questions on tool storage, general toolishness, and air compressors. I work currently as a database guy, but have...
