So I think I need a 3/8 flex ratchet to replace the starter on my Protege5. My standard ratchets are Wright Contour grips (which I really like), but it looks like the head on the wright flex ratchets might be a bit thick. If I can get a US made one for a reasonable price, I am down for that...

I have a Makita compressor that puts out 6.5 CFM (5 gallon tank). I also own the M18 milwaukee screwdriver and impact driver. Looking to grab an impact before I do some brake work this weekend. So, my question is for my purposes (and with my compressor) what would be better an air impact...

Just finished up a couple of cold weather work days (well, kind of cold, 35 degrees) using this extension cord and figured I would post a quick review. I was using the 50 ft 12 guage. Got it from Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B001LUT9SM/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Cord stayed super flexible...

So, I know we all complain here a bunch, so I figured it was worth posting a positive experience. I bought a Makita MAC2400 from Home Depot's website. After it was delivered I tried to install the air filter (just need to screw it in). Well, while screwing it in the filter broke in my hand...

Hey everybody, recently ordered a new Makita MAC2400. It gets delivered this week. First project will be doing a bunch of molding work (crown and baseboard). I already have a nail gun and ordered a a blubird 3/8 hose. This is my first compressor (figured I would just go big and get one that...

Looking at getting my first compressor. Near term projects include building a fence, installing crown molding and new baseboard trim, and some impact work on my car (brakes, etc). I have narrowed it down to the three compressors in the title. I like that the Rolair is US made, but the Makita...

I am contemplating grinding my entire floor (350sq ft) with a 7inch grinder. My reasoning is that with the cost of the big grinder rental I could probably pay for about half of a new 7 inch grinder with a shroud and diamabrush. Moreover, I could take my time grinding rather than have to do it...

So.... The previous owner of my house decided that what appears to be asphalt (bitumen or whatever you want to call it) would be a good substance to slather all over the cracks in my driveway. It looks like **** and over time, cracks have appeared in the tar, so it needs to be removed and...

All, Narrowed down my circular saw choices to one of these two. I am a buy once cry once kind of guy, so I figured I would buy one and let is last me for the next 20 years. Any advice to tip the choice one way or the other? Thanks!

There seem to be a bunch of drafting tables on craigslist in my area. I was thinking that a couple of these side by side might make a nice workbench. They are solid oak. Has anyone tried this? Are they stable enough? Tried a search and didn't see any threads about this idea.

Finally got to use my new 3/8 contour handle wright ratchet from Epstein's Day. Changed the plugs, coils, and wires on my Protege5. Did it "work" any better than my old craftsman raised panel. Nope.... but it sure was more comfortable to use. No raised panels digging into my palms. It...

Anybody have one of these? I have a set of Felo screwdrivers which I like quite a bit. Only $26 on amazon. A search of the forum led to very little... http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E64SVC/?tag=atomicindus08-20

Got a set of Channellock's (410s, 420s, and 426s) for Christmas and I have to admit I am a little disappointed. They don't seem to slide into the channels very easily, as I quickly learned after my clothes washer broke the day after I received the Channellocks and I had to put them into...
