Time consuming and tedious. I just keep telling myself it will all be worth it someday.

A couple of Armstrong combo wrenches from eBay. I've never seen the AS logo on Armstrong wrenches before. This is the first for me. I think I prefer the "Strong Arm" logo.

Glad they took care of you, even if it took a little while. WHat ratchet did you warranty? I know you said it was round head. What ratchet did they send you? Please post an old/new picture!

Thanks for all your replies! After reading about Orangeburg pipe, I'm pretty sure that's what it is. I suppose my temp fix will have to do for the time being. Maybe when I can get my sons and their brother in law around at the same time we can dig it up and replace it with PVC or ABS. Much...

My son bought an old house here in central Texas a couple years ago. He’s had sewer problems a few times once he’s been in the house. Most recently he had it cleaned out by a plumber and the plumber found this hole in the line about 25’ from the house. The plumber told him he should replace...

@Pexto @Squankum @Etchase We might have someone interested in making some of the nubs for the socket rails. I'll let you know. https://www.garagejournal.com/forum/threads/3d-print-job-1-2-3-8-and-1-4-square-drive-socket-storage-attachment-adapter-fixture.554350/

There are some really nice used toolboxes out there for the price of one new Chinesium roller. I bought a nice Craftsman Griplatch for $75.

I recently went through this exercise and bought the Craftsman V Series 41" roller and chest. If I were to get the worktop roller I'd get the 52" or 63" Craftsman V series. Craftsman is still made/assembled in USA with some Chinese components like drawer slides. I like how the drawer pulls felt...

Have a look please

I like those Tekton sets. I may even buy one someday. They seem to be a really handy kit. I'm collecting the V series stuff mostly because it is discontinued, but also because I like it alot. Maybe the ratchets aren't "the best" but neither was the old Craftsman stuff I've been wrenching with...

HaHa! Obviously you've missed this thread.

I had to glue one of the magnet bases back in on a a 3/8" deep set. Yeah, a bit of a disappointment. I asked on the 3D printer thread if anyone could make some new nubs for the socket holders and didn't get any takers.

OK, OK, OK Here you go- Craftsman SAE set $40 on eBay from the SBD shop "One Stop Tool Shop" CMMT455750V Metric $79 on eBay CMMT455751V

Got a box of socket rails from Ernst so I did a little bit of socket polishing and organizing. ^^ These 1/2” sets above are all used sockets I’ve purchased from GJ members and a few from eBay

Thanks much appreciated You mentioned it has been very cold there. How is the radiant tube heat working for you?

Thanks you It’s a very nice looking box. Is it a “griplatch” type or soft close? I looked at the new HF boxes and didn’t like the side slide finger pinch latch type. I’ve read the older boxes were not like the new ones.

I meant to ask you about this toolbox- What brand?
