    Different design 3-rd hand soldering holder "Pro's Kit"

    Duralast reversable combo wrenches

    BTW have you seen the NEW Duralast 3/8"dr in a 1/4 body ratchet. It's a bit longer 2cm+ than the Snap-On ratchet, but i'm sure that was so they wouldn't get sued. 72t too!

    Duralast reversable combo wrenches

    I've had my duralast ratcheting wrenches since they came out. I have still to warranty one 10mm, 12, 14, 17. The 4 sizes double box end wrenches (comes in a pair) are definitely from GW. As far as I know Duralast had them first. I actually gave a pair of those Duralast wrenches to a friend in...

    Soldering Work Station Recommendations

    I personally own a Hakko FX888-D (not Japan made). At my Fiber Optics job we have some Wellers, 3-4 new Lakers (yellow/purple color) Hakko stations and a lot of older 80's black HAkko-937 digital stations. If I was to do it all over again I would get an older Black Hakko 937 station (made in...

    MAC Tools - Made in USA?

    Surprisingly Snap-On is losing trucks in my area and there are 2 new MAC dealers now (which haven't been around at all for the last 10 years). I don't know if it's just older SO dealers retiring or what. One SO dealer I dealt with went to corporate, that's why he no longer has a truck.
