I have learned with this urge its kind of like a cold. if you wait long enough, and its not something you really do need, it will pass. The problem is I usually dont wait long enough...

So I was looking for the capability to bend bar stock and the like in my garage. Looking around I found a brake for my press at Northern but it was $330. Seemed a little expensive. Looking around some more I was able to find a kit, all the pieces, unassembled for $140(shipping included). This...

Lone Star, I wasnt sure if you were trying to sell the thermometer or subtly tell people you needed your air conditioning fixed....

Got the box yesterday. It will go back out either today or tomorrow. In the picture, what I took is on the left what I'm adding is on the right...

My girl has a 2006 jetta 2.5 and its at 205,000 and climbing. Its been a good car with only minimal issues. Ive had to do a front hub, the master window switch( twice, she drives witht he windows open) some electronic bits here and there but so far nothing really exceeding typical maintenance. I...

As the Facilities Director for a pharmaceutical company I provide basically all the tools that my techs need. There are occasions where specialists(HVAC, Electrician, myself) will occassionally supply a specialty tool that the company does not have but this is pretty few and far bewteen. I also...

Not sure if this would help you but Dow Corning 734 flowable sealant is pretty good for getting into cracks and such. I have used it in the past to patch HEPA filters and it works and flows well...

I have one of these hanging in my garage. Wroks well. Little pricey, You can get pretty much the same thing through amazon for about $15-17 cheaper. http://new.grainger.com/product/Thread-Measuring-Gauge-1TU58?s_pp=false

The best advice I could give you is to figure out what you want( rough size, functions, drawer layout), how much you want to spend, then start looking (craiglist, ebay, local magazine type advertisers, etc) and BE PATIENT. It took me years but I put together this three piece snap on set, never...

Did round one, skipped round two to restock. I'm in for Round 3. I will try and get some pics of what I have now..... Chris

So, I've read through most all this thread and as many have said, this thread really has turned into the same old tool truck/ box store, ford/ chevy, harley/honda debate. The tool truck guys get beat up pretty bad and I've seen some mention by plant guys of places like Grainger, well they really...

Just to jump on the bandwagon. I also saw the original post and had checked it out. I thought it was a cool idea but, as many had said before me, it was cost prohibitive. I think $150-200 would be a more palatable price point. I would mind having one but I can't justify it. At the end of the day...

I feel your pain on the wait. It took me 8 years or so and alot of driving to put together a 761/791/712 set. Mine is in standard Snap On Red. The wait was worth it though as I never could have afforded to by that whole setup new.
