    Please follow up on this if and when you get something. I’m interested. No reason other than “because I like sockets.” Thanks!

    Need a portable impact for getting off semi/trailer lug nuts? Milwaukee isn't cutting it

    First things first: Make sure You are not fighting with left hand thread hardware. Good point. I can’t tell for sure from the picture because the resolution is poor. Are those Budd wheels? If so, what side of the trailer are you working on? They should also have an “L” or “R” stamped in the...

    Need a portable impact for getting off semi/trailer lug nuts? Milwaukee isn't cutting it

    I didn’t read anything in the thread other than the original post, so excuse me if there is any redundancy. Also, I’ve never used the battery powered 1” IR gun so I have no experience with it. However, I was looking into portable 1” impact guns about a year ago when I thought I was going to be...

    You’re Using Your Tools Wrong!

    ….and this video will teach you the proper way. This old Plomb video popped up on my YouTube and I figured I’d share it. I can’t imagine it hasn’t been posted here already, but I did a quick search and didn’t see it. I love stuff like this. Disney made a bunch of videos during WWII for the US...

    Snap-On L-78 1 1/2” Drive Ratchet Parts

    I remember reading a thread here (that I cannot seem to find) from a member that had a Snap-On L-78 ratchet and was looking for info on replacement parts since they are NLA from Snap-On. If I recall, the OP was looking for the screw size. I found this posted in the comments of a YouTube video...

    Show Off Your Antique Ratchet

    I wonder how much that ratchet weighs…the one on the first page that is as long as the man pictured next to it is tall. Near catalog, thanks for sharing.

    Grab me a 10mm!

    If it’s the one I think you’re talking about, that’s a ratcheting open end.

    Show us your tool related keyrings

    Not a tool per se, but tool related. A Mack piston. I keep it on my Mack bulldog sitting on my desk.

    Need Help With Kenmore Dishwasher

    FIXED!! So it was one of the door safety switches. I had thought that since I’d jumped the switches that it took them out of the equation, but apparently the control board wants to know that the door has been opened before it allows another wash cycle to start. I replaced the switches with the...

    Need Help With Kenmore Dishwasher

    Thanks. Model# 665.13719K601 I tried pressing the sequence mentioned above and it did go through a test cycle. At the end there were no lights on. It then allowed me to turn it on and it worked normally. I’m wondering if the problem was indeed one of the door switches. Could it be since I...

    Need Help With Kenmore Dishwasher

    I have a Kenmore dishwasher that was installed shortly before we bought our house in 2008. It’s worked great up until just recently and I hate to replace it, especially since it seems to be something stupid that is causing issues. Here’s what’s going on: When I press the “Start/Resume” button to...

    Got a warrantee replacement hammer from Snap-On

    They replaced some deadblow hammers for me a few months back. The orange plastic basically disintegrated. They sent me new ones that look similar to the red one the OP received. I did send my old ones in using a prepaid label that they gave me. Start to finish was about a week. They also...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    After reading some of this I just thought of one that’s a total winner. Unfortunately I looked on their website and I don’t see it. Their Central Pneumatic air-powered cut-off tool is awesome. I have two of them, and I think I paid less than $10 each when they were on sale. I kept one at home...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    I bought this quite a few years back, so maybe it’s changed. The rear brake caliper tool for twisting rear calipers back into place. Major FAIL. Broke on the very first caliper I used it on. I never returned it, but bought a used Blue Point on eBay that has served me well.
