    Help me design a shop in upstate NY

    We are looking to buy/build a home in the adironack area of NY. The tax parcel will be in an area where it is ok to put up outbuildings. So, location is taken care of. Which also means natural gas is probably out. Propane, oil, wood, electricity would be the only availability. I have big...

    I have those GW long flex head spline drive ratchet wrenches as well. At the time i didnt even look snap on's way due to the price and the mountain brand ones have that large offset (also spline at the time?) but man..the spline really buggers up the ends on hex heads, especially on softer...

    2+ month wait finally got them. 1/4 drive nut gripper sockets and some 12” wobble fix extensions. I thought they were brilliant but frankly what i would want in conjunction with the nut grippers is a locking wobble extension how snapon makes. If your in a precarious situation where you cant...

    I was missing some larger metric sockets. Couldnt beat this for 61 shipped. only gripe is these are full length broaching, removing material and thus weight. Always want more inertia for impact sockets.

    Dewalt Honey Badger 2?

    Snap-on XFRM wrenches. Who has them?

    I think the point of the snappy ones is a strong mechanism to avoid having to swap ends. Crack bolts loose with 1 end.

    Snap-on XFRM wrenches. Who has them?

    i would sell alot of stuff for that kind of wrench. Regarding the GW wrenches. Only thing I dont like Is they tend to want to round the corners of softer bolts. I almost got stuck on a bolt but thankfully was able to pry is out. I really only use them to break a fastener free, bend the wrench...

I dont want the huge dealt as the balance is off and wants to easily tip of when stood on the battery. Used a biddies dewalt mid torque and the...

    *update* Manual Tire Changer Duck Head Conversion *update*

    You can get booties for the bead bars. ALso get rid of the chinesium bead lift bars. They will bend. SPend $100 for the hunter curved forged bar, and a coates nylon booty for it. I use a normal electric/pneumatic tire changer at home and no bar takes the abuse that the hunter deals with. Low...
