    Hilarious Chinese brand names on Amazon

    No, Urea is Carbamide, it is used as fertilizer, for resins, explosives, and in catalytic converters (AdBlue). Urine contains only 2% urea. I'm just trying to be an informative troll, so please ignore me.

    Stanley Black and Decker closing American tool factory

    That sounds better than the $30 a month I make.

    Tools you thought you'd love and just don't

    Spline sockets. For some reason the splines are surrounded by a lip, so they aren't that good for smaller fasteners, plus they ruin the finish on coated fasteners. 4 in 1 ratcheting box wrenches (the straight flat ones). Get the flex head ones instead. 11 in 1 screwdriver. The bits are too...

    Buying Tools Hindsight

    I would do research, using the Garage Journal forums, so that I don't end up buying bad tools. Avoid influencers, because they usually hype things that aren't worth it.

    Snap-On screwdriver quality vs the others

    You are right. They are Swiss grip, not hard handle. https://www.pbswisstools.com/en/tools/quality-hand-tools/screwdrivers/product/pb-8249-dn

    Hard handle bit holders.

    This is the first time I see one with a multicraft handle. Was that model discontinued? That one looks interesting, thin, a bit like a wera 813, or an Xcellite mini nut driver. I think there aren't a lot of hard handle bit drivers. How is the wobble on that mechanism? I once took appart a...

    Hard handle bit holders.

    Please, show your hard handle bit drivers. So far, I have these 3. The Malco connext1, and connext2 require powerbits, or you will be cursing, while trying to pull a 1 inch bit from them. They hold the bit firmly, with almost no play. Feels similar to using a fixed blade screwdriver. The...

    Another new Tekton product

    It could be more flexible/ useful, if they also had the wobble tip at the bent side (especially if it was available on 1/4 drive). Edit: So many early Snap-on references and jokes. Snap-on did have a pretzel shaped handle, they just needed to twist it a bit more

    The Daddy will you fix my....Tool Kit

    Please explain to them that they should never put the 1 inch bits in the Malco handle, because they will then have to use pliers to get them out. 😂

    Last USA Adjustable

    You are right, but it is funny. Edit: But then, I remembered about the switch/indexed type adjustable wrenches with predetermined stops.

    Multi-bit screw drivers… I feel like I’ve been screwed

    They are even worse without it. The handle has a double square shape, with relatively sharp edges. If you break the rubber overwrap, just wrap the handle in paracord.

    Best multi screwdriver

    Ok, if you want a pocketable, self contained multibit screwdriver, with good fitting bits, then the PBSwiss Insiders are good, but really expensive. https://pbtools.us/pb-6464-insider-1-pocket-tool_c232.htm If you need the bits to be long, and don't mind having to carry a small case, then the...
