^^^^ This X2. My travlin box has old tried and true pieces I've had for years.

No way I'd let that get away. At first I thought that was Ford parts at the bottom, but I guess not. Some hammering in your future.

Mine last a lot longer since I quit renovating old houses. Biting into hot romex with your nice Kleins really *****.

Like many, I can't throw away anything that still works.

What's on the other side?

Claim as little as possible. Helps to preserve being insured next time.

Really. Had a lot of things in my hand said Marshalltown on it.

I got my best deal from Genuine Tools dot com. Been several weeks ago, however.

I don't care at all......tools I've had for decades got somebody else's marks. But I love hearing this about INcreased value on that kinda stuff. Tillie and Wally.........that would make that watch above really mean something.

From when I was a kid, I remember like one scene from one episode of TV show "Route 66". Well went dry I think, had to jack up the vette to pull the well pipe up. More or less.

I let my 2 post lift down real slow till it's just right.

I have a set of 3/8" drive Koken Whitworth/ British Standard sockets, they are superb tools. I have to say that in all the years I've been using them, never once has it occurred to me to ponder where and how the size stampings are.

To me that's an interesting looking little motor. I don't have any that old around here.

I still don't understand why the metric world uses inch drive sizes.

Yes, my whole life squinting at sockets any time I need an uncommon size. Or most any damn metric. My normal sockets, and even my Whitworth, you get to where you can just look at em and tell. Unless it's a long walk to the toolbox, then I might grab a wrong one.

I guess I just got used to where can't ever see the number on any of my metric sockets anyway.

Now I need one of those.

I can't figure this out from the picture.

I was gonna put a 100 foot cord on the vacuum cleaner so I could reach the whole house. But then bought another identical vacuum for upstairs so two 50' cords oughta do it.

Jeezus, I didn't really know we were entering an age of not repairing things like electrical cords.
