    Trusty-Cook Green 3-Pack, #S1, #S2, & #S3 for $49

    I have 3 ball pens and 2 deadblows. Every one cost me more than I ever expected to pay for a hammer but I have to say, I reach over 4 other hammers to grab a TC. It might hurt to pull the trigger but you will be back to spend more. Nothing even comes close for automotive use. I would say the...

    Got my SAE universals. Still waiting on my Metric universals but Im sure they are in transit. These paired with my Nano 3/8 and 1/2 short sockets are fantastic. Ill be leaving a review in good time once I have some use of them on an upcoming project.

    Cornwell discontinued sockets

    Well this one is a gift for a friend. He's had a Cornwell TSML0245SS Super Set (1/4" and 3/8" drives/metric and SAE) for a few decades. The clamshell is busted and he is missing a few sockets. I came across a NOS one that was missing about 9 sockets. I'm assuming was a dealers batch used for...

    Cornwell discontinued sockets

    Individual sockets, lost over time. I picked up a rail of used metric mid replacements recently but Ive been looking for the missing SAEs (or a set) and I never find them in the wild. I talked to the cornwell truck and he said they dont sell them anymore. Cornwell sockets, not another brand.

    Cornwell discontinued sockets

    Looking for ideas on how I might go about finding some sockets from about 20 years ago that Cornwell discontinued. These would be SAE mid length sockets from a mid superset. Ebay, Craigslist and Marketplace are all bare of these. No one seems to have semi deeps. How would Cornwell even deal...

    Limited Time/Garage Journal Only: BOGO Round 2

    I don't see ways to buy this via the Astro site, so I am assuming its via Amazon? But I don't see a BOGO via the site. My carts ready to go but I want to be sure if I'm getting a Metric its coming with the SAE?

    Milwaukee Power Tools Deal Permathread

    I love mine, I normally use the 9amp for everything, 15-20 minutes, quarter acre then use the blower with the same bat. rarely gets below 75%. Ive used a few 5amps and they would do the job as well no issues for my yard. My only issue is the guard and the power of the thing. Its mean as hell...

    YA-2225 and a S45 touch upgrade

    I have a YA-2225 that "works". When I say it works, it fires and cuts but the head is mangled and the contact start is not something I want. So there used to tbe a Alpha 3a upgrade but thats not sold anymore. There are plenty of places selling a S45 as a upgrade. Some 3 and some 4 wire. The only...

    150ft pounds back killer

    I have. Normal steel wont twist at typical loads like a torsion bar (thats what a torque stick is afterall) Also, no mechanic I'd trust would ever use a torque stick. As rlitman pointed out you can still hammer on them an go well beyond its limits and unless you check it with a torque wrench...

    soft tip air hammer?

    Just a guess but I would think the same time I reach for a deadblow. You need to hit something but...softer.

    150ft pounds back killer

    If im envisioning what you are doing right, what about parking a car off the side ratchet strap off the wheel, frame, etc or something low and pull it that way? Just ensure the strap is centered on the handle. You could also use this to "hold" the wrench at say 100fp so you can rest before...

    150ft pounds back killer

    My understanding about torque wrenches is this will not give an accurate reading as the wrench is calibrated to (typically) the center of the grip. However (despite what my ASE cert buddies say) you can use extensions and this wont alter the reading as long as you keep the angles at 90 (no...

    Best utility knife / box cutter? Manual or cordless?

    Olfa H1 Xhd cutter is my go to. Really like it. Took about 2 minutes to adjust to the handle and release method but now its second nature. Made in Japan.

    Warning: "carl333" aka Carlson McPherson

    Same thing here. Asked to email him [email protected]. One thing to note is periods (most symbols don't) don't work in gmail. Gmail just drops them. You can setup filters though and use periods to segment your address and know exactly where they come from. Coming from the world...
