Some prior commentary : Why an ICON Gold Plated Ratchet? https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=478724

After seeing the experience you've had with Ace products, I'll be rushing down there to buy a few things. LOL And I wouldn't use that liquid ****. I have an aversion to doing a job more than once. Good luck with the Oatey.

I have a 1974 version that looks eerily similar to your $30 find; mine had the sliding tray also. Great price; they gave that away.

With advertising like that, they ought to!!!

To further prove your point : Acetone-based nail polish remover also comes in "plastic" containers with "plastic" caps. I have a few in my garage (for many years). Haven't had a problem.

For relatively small stuff that I will use infrequently, I plastic bag the stuff to keep similar items together. E.g., hinges that are identical. Place these bags into containers. Label container with general contents. Store container in location that is not taking up valuable space. For me...

* I didn't realize that taps could be sharpened. How is that done? * I've worked in four manufacturing facilities in the good ole USA. Every one sent junk out the door.

If I remember correctly, back in the day "Made in Japan" used to be synonymous with junk. China is a HUGE country. Not homogenous across regions, industries, companies, etc. Or time. In Mao Tse Tung's day, the game was different. But in the last 40-50 years, China has made significant changes...

vavet >> Good luck with your energy consumption analysis. Me personally : Up around 20% because of the record temperatures during the summer in Arizona. Compared to the prior nine years. Been here 23 years; never seen anything like this.

I'm pushing 68 and am currently relieving myself of material possessions I will definitely have no need in my lifetime. You're right; it's so easy to accumulate. You piqued my curiosity : From the Mayo Clinic Hoarding Disorder...

That's great!!!! LOL Where do we send the donations?

I encountered this person's videos on YouTube a few days ago. Turns discarded items into some pretty nice products. Epic UpCycling I'd be interested in watching any others who do this type of work. Maybe someday I'll be patient enough ....LOL

I also can attest to this. I bought CM screwdrivers in the 1970's that have yellowed from the original clear.

ollie76 : Glad you're up and running again. Good luck with repairing the board that was replaced. I had a power failure in my neighborhood a few weeks ago. Less than a half-hour. My very old CRT TV would not fire up afterwards. A few days later my computer monitor died. I consider the deaths...

Great suggestions already. I don't believe in wholesale dumping into landfills. Your current situation didn't happen all at once. Create enough space to finish your solar panel project. Allocate a little time everyday to organize the rest, including ridding yourself of stuff you're unlikely to...

If you haven't placed an ad already, given the interest of GJers in ..... you might want to cobble together some pics and prices on the shippable items. And the box for local pickup. Classifieds https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=9

I believe he is referring to dnschmidt. Maybe a PM to him will get you some good advice..... I don't think he is a distributor anymore. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/member.php?u=241097

I have a lot of extra sockets from acquisitions over the years Before finding an appropriate storage solution, I would first sort out the sockets. By drive, size type, etc. I would then store the duplicates in containers (not in my primary toolbox). If you so desire, you could create an...
