:thumbup: Certainly more Epstein's business in my future

This thread is harmful to my wallet! :bowdown:

Can't name just one! 18 volt Makita LXT impact Knipex pliers Dead-on Exhumer FHF80 FX936 (will one day get a FX80) Miller Digital Performance iPhone

2 - 3 ton HF 2- 3 ton Chinese off brand 4 - 6 ton HF 2 - 6 ton Snap-on 1 - 6 ton Hein Werner The six ton American stands are much beefier than the Chicom stands of the same rating. For work on a 1/2 ton truck, I certainly recommend 6 ton stands because of the height and capacity. American...

I have a 190 and I recommend one for what it does. I figured the price of the 210 was not worth the extra money for my needs (and 220v was no problem for me). Hobart has added metal drive assemblies back to their line (in the Handler 140) you may want to wait to see if they put it in the 190...

My very unofficial way of storing clamps. Shelf is from Costco, mini pallet racking. The hanger is a 99 cent HF hanger cut in half

Ordered: bunch of Wilde punches and chisel set, 36" pry bar, feeler gauges, ring compressor, headlight tool, battery pliers, all the swivels, Epstein shirt and channellock Mig pliers. February has been expensive, ya'll ****! :willy_nil

I'll be damned, of course it's 6 months after I buy my plastic drive 190. If the 140 is getting it, I'm sure the bigger Handlers will. :willy_nil

I have bought a few rails of Williams, their hard handle screwdrivers, a set of Supercombo's and a ratchet. I have liked everything so far. It is certainly more $ than Craftsman though, considering the Craftsman sets make the tools very inexpensive. I plan on buying the SK 1/4 set that is around...

It is indeed Williams SuperTorque for the design of the anti slip system, Supercombo for the design of the wrench

Yes, I'm not sure what SO was thinking with that idea. It was listed in the catalog a few catalog issues ago and I remember saying "wow, that's ugly" and now there is one in my garage. :wtf:

I have a Craftsman bit socket that I am pretty sure is blued. It has a purple tint to it, I don't remember exactly how I acquired it, it was either 97 cents or I got it in a lot at a pawn shop. Either way, it looks new so I think it came like that from the factory :dunno:

Here is a pic of my dads home box: KRA 4107 with top chest (and questionable taste drawer pull trim) He got it used like new through his dealer. When it showed up and I saw the drawer trim, my dad and I were like :headscrat but anyway, I would NOT buy a Heritage box. The drawer slides **** and...

The first time I used my cobra's was like: :rocker: If I know I will be using slip joints all day (like running conduit) I bring my Knipex in from home. It can be so frustrating using Channellocks and having to adjust the damn things constantly. Set and forget with the Cobra's.

The drawers were $250 a piece :scared: but my dad bought the box from his Snap on dealer. He worked a deal with the dealer to split the cost in order for my dad to buy the box (because he wasn't going to buy it with two bent up drawers.)

I am pretty sure (but not 100% certain) that the Hobart 210 has a plastic drive assembly (the rollers are still steel). My Hobart 190 is plastic, and all the smaller Hobart machines use plastic systems. The Iron man 230 uses a steel unit (same as the Millers).

The Lowes in my area has cobras, alligators, dykes, linesman, bolt cutters, needle nose, insulated pliers and insulated screwdrivers. They are all on sale currently too, just bought some 10" dykes the other day.

At work (construction) I use Channellocks because they get absolutely abused but I have Knipex cobra's in my home box, they are much better slip joints. I bought the 2 piece kit (7 and 10") and also picked up the 12" at Lowes in the electrical department. Matco and Craftsman sell the same pliers...

I have the Hobart 190, agreed it's a great machine. I think Shanker is more concerned with the multi voltage plug than the autoset. Auto set is a standard feature on all smaller Miller Mig welders
