I have a small bolt that the head has snapped off. I have filed it flat and drilled it out and i am at the point of trying to figure out what the best ez out is? Every one i have ever used has broken complicating the process. I have gotten lucky a few times and they have worked. This bolt...

Where or how do you organize your spray cans? I used to have a small 1x3 shelf around the top of my garage walls that would allow you to have your cans all lined up no more than 1 deep. It worked really well.....and i liked it. I am finding that i have too much **** in my garage now and cant get...

Odd question. I have seen some older tools all shiny with the original patina. They looked almost as if they were clear coated. I am wondering if this is a clear coating process, boiled linseed oil or fluld film? I know old rat rod car guys will do something very similar to this to preserve...

I have a few old oil cans with the long stem that threads into the base. They are the old style where you push the bottom wizard of oz style and the oil comes out the long stem......not the new trigger / jar style. Anyway......every time i use them they leak and get oil all over...

Has anyone seen/used both first hand The F has 2 3/8 ratchets (one of them is a stubby) and i believe both of them are 84t. THe P only has 1 rachet but is the 120xp set with 120t. The P aslo has the case with the yellow latches and the F appears to be all black, perhaps an older model? both...

I dont want to get into a ******* match here. I get it. They are both cheap tools. I am a simple home diy guy and dont use my tools to make money. I love my tools and using them is one of my favorite hobbys. Up until this point, i have had CF raised panel wrenches and socket sets that are ~30...

The first craftman set of sockets i got as a kid 25 years ago came in one of those blow molded cases with a spot for everything. I have kept this in my tool box as such. I am debating switching over to either socket trays or rails as case has warped and if i tried to carry it around as intended...

I am about ready to go pick up that 44 inch bottom unit everyone raves about. I sure wish they produced a clamshell top like this one: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-41-in-16-Drawer-Tool-Chest-and-Rolling-Tool-Cabinet-Set-Black-H4116CHTR/206349895 i would buy the husky one but they dont sell...

I see they are on sale again now for $349 I did some quick measurements at the store and figured that thing is about 42in long and ~39in high. This means it will fit were i want to put it in my garage. I also have a $100 gift card that i need to spend.....so the deal is lookin extremely...

I have an old 3.5 craftsman 506 vice that i picked up for $5.....and would you know it? After looking at all the nice vise threads here i got fired up to clean it up, strip it, prime and paint and mount it. I am just in from pulling it all apart. I think this one is from the mid 60s or 70s. No...

I picked up a Wilton 645 recently. It isnt one of the bullet models......its more of a mechanics style with anvil on the rear. Are these on par with columbian, reed and others of the same style? How sought after are they? I know ppl love the bullet models but they are hard to find and this one...

Hello all. New here but i had to join after reviewing these forums for the past few hours. What a great site. I am wondering about Buffalo brand wrenches. When i was young.......late 80s......my uncle got me a set of Buffalo brand wrenches. He claimed they were a nice set and he was a...
