Had a 3/4” Mac (I-R) air impact gun. Fed it with a 1/2” hose with 1/2” couplers and 180 psi. Not much it wouldn’t get loose. If that didn’t work shop had an old I-R industrial gun fed with a 3/4” hose and jack hammer fittings @ 180 psi. Never had a cylinder rod nut that wouldn’t come loose. If I...

If you ever work on old IH tractors you will use them on hood and floor fasteners.

If you have the resources to buy all the time good for you. Just wondering how? Buying a house….Raising a family? Most of us likely struggle to buy premium tools while living a normal life. I am retired now and have passed on over half of the tools to my sons to help them with their own careers...

Do you just buy **** to look at or do you earn a living with all that shiny new stuff? All of those don’t look like they’ve ever been used.

Battery platform is handy for some things. I bought one of these heavy DeWalt 1/2” impacts and am impressed with the power it has but I would not want to handle this heavy thing all day long. Too heavy. I’ll be keeping my 1/2-3/4-1” air tools. Yes I’m retired but I still do side jobs now and...

I like deep broached sockets for removing tires on trucks and farm equipment. Can usually get 2 or 3 nuts in them before dumping them out and getting more. Just makes the job go faster and less chance of losing one

You kids do know don’t you that 12 pt. sockets work on square fasteners right???

What the hell do you think will happen?? Won’t be good. Like destroying cutting tools?

#14 Aluminium grain scoop shovel. Shoveled thousands of bushels of grain over my lifetime and a shitload of snow too

Ok let’s find out what’s the reason for ******* 23-25-26-28-29MM sizes. Door stops??? I know they make them. Have them. Sockets I’ve only ever used for pushing in bearings and bushings in my press. Now that I think about it I think that’s where 2 or 3 of them still are

Last year I purchased one of their pipe vices for field work. For not having a mobile vice it worked very well. Been using it for plumbing on my rural farm in Upper Michigan. Makes repairs and new installations much easier. I am pleased so far with their pipe vice anyway. Can’t say about their...

Live in the country. It’s the starting loads have to selectively run. Electric water heater,A/C,well,stove running in summer. Just not all the same time

I have the same bit set except it says Case IH on the box and ratchet. Looked handy when I was at a dealer picking up combine parts

My question is why??? Impact?????

I run a 10K John Deere portable generator for camping and house backup. Can run anything in my house just not all at same time. Must be selective with the heavier loads. Will burn 7 gallons in 12 hours of use. Storms took out our power last year for about 5 days. Used around 70 gallons of gas...

Was never brand loyal. All of my tools are 99% USA made. USA is my brand

So if you’ve already spent hundreds of dollars so far why are you cheaping out for bushings? Replace the whole damn part and move on. And no I’m not swimming in money. Like my name says…RETIRED. If you don’t have the correct tools to do the job you’ll probably be same cost as OEM parts but maybe...

You’re doing a lot of bitching about a suv with 200K miles on it. What do you expect?? Safety of your kids not worth a few hundred bucks?? Steering and tires shouldn’t be 2nd class

Been retired for quite a few years now but MOTOR Service manuals were always the best. Chilton books were alright if they were the professional versions

You have never used a 6 ton with 20’ of chain?? If you have you’d still be cussing at how heavy it is. As was previously stated chain hoists don’t like dirt and mud
