    Long Handled 1/2" Drive Ratchet

    I have the Williams and as stated it is a bit clunky. I like it though a good solid ratchet. I do like my Proto ratchets more. In fact I use my Proto more than my Snap on and I wrench on heavy equipment/hydraulic for a living.

    Does anyone still make metric 15-degree offset double box wrenches? (pics included)

    Snap on does but the price is over $300.00. I have a set of the Craftsman wrenches you referenced from the late 80's.

    show us you hydraulic hose crimper(s)

    I have been making hydraulic hoses for almost 4 decades, all with Weatherhead components. Building your own crimper, to me, is a waste. To crimp properly you need the correct collets, rings, and crimp dimensions. Building hose assemblies that have 2500 psi + going through them is no joke if...

    HF Chief air hammer

    I bought one a month ago. It hits HARD. Better than my old IR. It is made in Taiwan so I took a chance because a lot of the IR lineup is Chinese. Time will tell if it holds up as long as my old IR. I don't baby my tools, they are used in a heavy equipment/hydraulic repair shop daily.
