    Power tool batteries got soaked

    You can see if a replacement BMS board is available. Apart from that you're looking at new battery packs :(

    One Tool You Can Only Get From...

    Matcos 30" 1/2" drive locking flex head ratchet. Tried and failed to find any other alternatives.

    Do these pliers look new to you?

    Clean the rubber with silicone spray. I don't know why, but it does an amazing job cleaning off dirt and grease.

    Interesting design....VIM ratcheting wrenches

    I really like them!! But do wish they came with an anti-slip open end.

    New knipex ear clamp pliers 10 99 i220. Is this a defect, or is this normal?

    I have the same pair and it's normal :) I think one side is used to remove the old clamps.

    Long Bit Sockets Bondhus vs VIM?

    I have Bondhus ball end hex keys and bits and they've lasted me a long time. Fit and finish is perfect and way cheaper than Snap On.

    Have You Broken Any Tekton Tools?

    Best ones I've bought were Snap-on, Matco, and Lisle O2 sensor sockets. The cheap ones just spread and make a job that much harder IMO

    Has any one tried out Astro or Sunex triple square socket sets?

    I have this same set as well. Very strong, excellent fit and finish and inexpensive.

    Whats going on with sk tools.?

    I got the same email and gave them a call. They sent a rebuild kit out instead.

    OK ... I give up. Where do you buy the garden hose nozzle that doesn't leak after a year or two? Take my money! I'm ready.

    Dramm. Many of their nozzles are made in the USA and they last a good while. Great spray pattern as well.

    Milwaukee's New USA Hand Tool Factory

    If they make their ratcheting wrenches here I'll gladly buy them. Not many options for those made in the USA and their price right now is ridiculous compared to an equivalent SK set.

    Small slugging wrenches

    Teng tools sell tiny slugging wrenches, but I'm not sure if one can fit on a driveshaft bolt. Have you tried using a driveline socket?

    Tools of Japan

    I just received my Nepros adjustable wrench today and am slightly disappointed. I've had good luck with their tools but the jaw has more play perpendicular to the screw. The Chinese adjustable that I own are better in that regard. Very comfortable and shiny though!

    Tools of Japan

    The best tool that I've used for valve adjustments is this Proto through hole ratchet and a t handle hex. I've found the style posted above to be too flimsy on Cummins engines and almost busted my knuckles when the handle separated from the socket part...

    Allen bit sockets?

    Not usa made, but I've had good luck with Powertorque and Capri tools bit sockets. Husky bit sockets kept breaking on me.

    Just got an Astro ADN38 RivNut tool, is there a quality difference in RivNuts / NutCerts?

    The ones I got from an Amazon special were awful and stripped out easily. Spend the money on quality rivnuts.

    Cordless grass/string trimmer?

    The EGO trimmer is by far the best that I've ever used. The string feed is very easy to use and it has plenty of power to cut through agave plants (don't try it though or you'll end up itching all over like me). I recommend the 2.5 AH battery as it gets heavy with the 5AH one.
