    Mastercraft Maximum Impact Wrench

    Got one, returned it within the hour. The lady at the counter asked what was wrong with it. So I told her it was a pos. She then proceeded to ask me if she could put it back on the shelf.

    compressor issue

    I know about the flux capacitor in the Dolorean, but I have no idea about the compressor :headscrat But my guess is some kind of excessive heat of some switch somewhere on the unit. The intake manifold does get really hot.

    compressor issue

    Nice cuts on thick sheet metal

    http://www.metalsupermarkets.com/msc-home.aspx?Country=US Maybe they have a supplier close to your location. There is one around here and I enjoyed dealing with them everytime I had to. Tell them the size you need and they'll hook you up for a fair price.

    Proto tools at the fleamarket...

    It's good to know I didn't just throw money out the window. A quick google search on the Hoppe Super ratchet braught me back here on GJ and it appears it's some US made tool. The guy I got them from said he got them from his grand-father and he was about 50 years old him-self. So I'd say these...

    Proto tools at the fleamarket...

    I think I read the name somewhere around here sometime ago but I don't remember what people had to say about the company or its products. Anyway... that's what I found this weekend. I'm not sure what make the 10" one is. There is no company name that I could find on it anywhere. It's built...
