True but then I will want to go for 20.

Those of you that have CI tools, how are thay compared to 70's and 80's regular craftsman hand tools?

Pic?

Ok I hit the rare Wednesday estate sale this morning. Small load as I felt much of the stuff was overpriced. Sperry 400/600 ammeter voltmeter. $10 SK Wayne 45170 ratchet(only my 9th one because I needed 1 more, just one tho.) $5 Craftsman 1/2 cold chisel, New. $1

Re: ***** Makita Addiction Thread ***** How old are your "older" Makita tools? Do they have the yellow or the star on them where the battery connects? I was wondering about this as Makita claims they will not work. I never thought to try them as I was afraid of messing something up.

Re: ***** Makita Addiction Thread ***** After using many Makita corded tools over the years including a palm sander, D handle router, 1013 miter saw and several 9.6 volt screwguns, and having good luck with all of those, I took the plunge on the LXT line when it came out in 2005 with the 5 tool...

Got Klein 9 inch linesman and a Klein curved handle wire stripper.

Clamps.

Went to Menard to get some macaroon cookies and noticed they had the entire line of Knipex on sale.10" Cobras were $25 which is the same price I paid at Ace after using the 50 off coupon. Also anyone have experience with the bostitch flex combo wrenches? . I was looking for some cheap trunk...

I don't mark any tools. If I filled tools with electrical tape etc., the tools would be too hard to Polish and buff. :bounce:

There is nothing like rescuing a tool and giving it a nice home. Too many of them are just abused.

Wow they let you use that coupon on a sale/ clearance item. It says on coupon not valid with sales items. You did good.

They are upping the ante against ace by going up to 50 clams with this coupon. Guess I'll have to go to both places. Man this board is going to break me. :bowdown:

I used to use the Eklund but that nut and bolt that holds them together kept coming loose. So I changed to the Bondhus gorillas which were a step up most definately. Then when walking around the local tool store I stumbled upon Wiha Pocket stars. That's all I use now.

That happens every year here. There is plenty of stuff that already is priced for BF. I really dig those plastic ridged toolboxes. They sell them as a set with a cart in that ad but sell them separately on the shelf.

Agreed. With a 1/2 bit. Then get some 1/2 drop in anchors and set tool. A length of all thread and some nuts and washers. You want that tire machine mounted down good.

I should have been more specific. I was referring to those f-style red sumo grip clamps Rocker used to sell around the holidays for like $4-8 depending on length. I use the heck out of those and they are still holding up good.

So are the Dewalt air tools the same as MAC air tools?

No Jet clamps this year. Oh well. http://yourcatalog.dirxion.com/rockler/december/app.php?RelId=6.5.6.3.1&sid=V2941&SSAID=1093589
