How much did you add for the Jeep and where? - Paul

Guess I'm not sure of the question. If you lost your receipt, I think you are out of luck on the rebate as you must send in the rebate section of the original receipt. But talk to Menards and see if they can help you. Maybe they can print another one for you - don't know. - Paul

Even better is to pile on top yellow summer squash or zucchnini, an extra 3 or 4 tomatoes, green peppers, a few extra onions, chives, and marjoram, which is in the family of oregano but not oregano. I use marjoram like salt and pepper on any veggies. Oh and lots of extra cheese. And hot...

Cheechi, this is a great idea! Thanks for hosting it! - Paul

Wow, that is really astounding that parts were rusted up on a 2016 tool and inside the rachet at that. Hope the new bits solve all the problems when you get them! - Paul

Hee hee. I went to HD with mine on. The helper person lady said to me: "How can I help YOU?" She gets a "B" rating. It could have been much worse! But she clearly was not totally pleased! :evil: :beer: :rocker: - Paul

I like that Hazet toolbox. Would be pretty handy for smaller things. I like the $20 price point for a new steel toolbox though. Of course, that was the 80's-90's, which is where most of mine are from! - Paul

Yes, Wilde from Menards when on sale is a great deal. Menards will ship wherever, just a little moer for shipping but if you got several things on a super sale, might still be a better deal than you could get anyplace else. I love Menards. - Paul

Sometimes the grease in rachets will get stuck and you just have to take apart and clean out well and regrease. May not even need a repair kit. Having said that, if 2016 date, this is highly odd, and you probably do need a repair kit for this one. I bought the standard 3/8 from this seller...

Yes, *quality plated* older will be thicker than most new, but there is that corrosion potential due to the age thing/environment if not taken care of. I have found the older SK, Wright, and Craftsman -V- or -H- (and of course Snap On) to be some of the best chrome out there. Much of mine has...

That's funny. When I go there and happen to be wearing one, no one even considers asking me any question! It may be more how friendly you appear to be vs. your shirt Bimmer! :eyecrazy: - Paul

Yes, I also have plenty of Duro-Indestro and Proto without any chrome damage (they were oiled or taken care of a little). But I have some corroded that weren't taken care of well. Thickness of chrome is a touchy subject because we all want great chrome but the greater it is the worse it is for...

They are basically Hanes, but comfortable to wear and pretty thick fabric. I like them alot. I use them as work shirts mainly or around the house. It is *really* fun though to put one on and then go shopping at Lowes or HD. Test their people to see how nice they will be to you wearing these...

That looks pretty cool for making cordless corded. Anyone try this 28v on 18/20 volt tools? The overvoltage is just a little high but would make the motors run a bit faster, which would really improve any tool's effective power. I've done 20% overvoltage before with good results - you just...

One thing to consider is which sets are compatible with others and which aren't. I ended up going the Home Depot/Craftsman/Gearwrench compatible family as I got a deal on HD sets, then filled in with extensions and other socket sizes not in those sets with Craftsman via points I had. The...

Guys, what all would you use Neverwet for and how good is it really? thx- Paul

Rick, those look really interesting. I never saw them before. But for depth gauges I generally use a real depth gauge for the accuracy. But for rough woodworking, may be fine. How all do you use these? - Paul

I would also put Duro/Indestro up there with SK/Proto/Wright for sockets or wrenches and vintage ratchets, but I don't think the chrome is quite as good as SK or Wright. About same as old Proto. I have lots of these old sockets and the Protos and Indestros will show rust over time if not taken...

New Ad out today. Noticed 246 piece drill/drive bit set for $14.99 after rebate, surely China Coo. Good deal for that. And a remarkable earn $1 each one after rebate wiper blade! Can't beat that! Although these are not the greatest blades. Mine squeek a bit in use. That may be OK after...

Walden made alot of high quality US tools for along time. I have a couple sets and lots of pieces. Good stuff and still very useable today. - Paul
