Just ran across these Wilde Tool Company manufactured Craftsman N4 Circle P 5/8 3/4. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Just ran across these Champion De Arment (pre Channellock) 307 battery terminal pliers. Patent awarded in 1934. Applied for in 1933 by HH Manning. 7.1in long. Found a big box of Grandfather's and Great Grandfather's pliers tonight... Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Oh sorry was bored and just throwing out stats. I agree! Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Now that would bees knees. I'd buy that for a dollar. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Just to give you an idea on how battery compares to corded. Last time I bring up Makita. Promise! [emoji846] My Makita 36v SDS Plus 1 inch can do 0- 5,000bpm and 2.2 pounds of impact energy with two 18v 5.0ah batteries. And I got my weight mixed up with another breaker hammer after yanking the...

Lol I have the Makita 1/2in 18v that's similar. With a 5.0ah battery I couldn't imagine getting in the engine bay on most newer cars. Just laying on my back using it to do brakes or whatever my arm gets sore pretty quickly it's so heavy. If it can fit where I need it in the first place...

This is blasphemy but I have a Makita SDS Plus that takes two 5.0ah 18v batteries to operate and weighs 27 pounds without a bit. I prefer the corded SDS Max rotary hammer though because I can stick an SDS Plus chuck adapter on it when I can't find max bits. Most HDs and Lowe's don't stock max...

Gotcha! So it can be used a regular hand ratchet then power can be engaged when loose. OK makes sense. I imagine it's great for putting things back together. Starting bolts and the like. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Hey Milwaukee fanatics. I have been mulling an M12 3/8 ratchet for a while. Just about to start rebuilding my 5.4l 3v Triton. The reviews reviews I've read either seem to love them or think they're under powered. Anyone here use one on a regular basis. What are your thoughts? I don't own any M12...

Yesterday was Taiwan tool day at my house. These all showed up. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Let us know how well it works. I've heard so many mixed reviews, on the M12 cordless ratchet, I bought one and returned it so I could mull over the AcDelco. Have had it in my Amazon cart, three times now but can't decide if I should pull the trigger or not. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Re: New "Klein Koat" handles on old non Klein pliers.. Yeah I couldn't tell if it was a K that had worn off. After a ton of searches I found a bunch of internal GE memos from the late 40s talking about testing plastic on linesman pliers. There's an OCT Foundry that it seems GE was...

Finally had a chance to go through one tray. They mostly consisted of Cleveland Twist, Chicago Latrobe, Morse, and Miller's Falls. If anyone wants a pic of any let me know otherwise I assume you've probably already seen it. Most are badly worn. One I did find cool is a Stanley Sweetheart logo...

Re: New "Klein Koat" handles on old non Klein pliers.. I have some similar. They appear to be Channellock pliers that someone (Grandfather or Great Grandfather) had red plastic added to the handles. I can't be 100% certain on the brand though it's pretty worn. Sent from my XT1635-02...

Yeah I've been finding some nice stuff all the sudden. Better than CL. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Don't they sell Olympia at Tractor Supply. Thought I've seen it there before but not sure. Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Oh I love my Makita impact driver! I was so impressed after I bought it, I sold my Bosch and DeWalt stuff, and bought all new Makita. The massive 740ft lbs impact wrench is a beast. Just wish it were a little smaller. LOL Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Yeah you're not kidding about the expense. Fortunately, I can write them off as a business expense. I'm sure you will make good use of them! Sent from my XT1635-02 using Tapatalk

Going to be starting a rebuild on my 5.4l 3v Triton engine this weekend. These will come in handy. My rep at Grainger sent me a free Stoddard resistant pump to make up for a bad snafu on their end a month or so ago. Put that on it do a little wiring for the fuseable link and good to go...

Another box arrived! Not expecting a lot from the caliper my Starrett etc are probably a million times more accurate. However, I wanted one to play around with. And for $25, a 4 1/2 star Amazon average with 400 reviews it seemed to be the better cheap digital. We shall see. And a little 12v...
