    Wurth hand tools on sale

    I got that the other day for a few minutes. When it came back my cart was gone but I was able to re-add things and proceed with checkout. (Or consider this a sign from the universe to save money.)

    Tools from the old world

    Do any Tools from the Old World fans know of any retailers (US-based or otherwise) who may have some older Wiha tools? Specifically I’m looking for a Wiha Topra, a pistol-grip ratcheting driver for System 6 blades. Thanks!

    Wiha Topra for System 6 — Ratcheting Pistol Grip Handle

    Looking for a Wiha Topra to go with my System 6 blades. Ideally the 2K version, since it can be adapted to hold 6mm hex bits or square drive.

    Yup, you guys are right — you can pick the length the blade sticks out with a lot of granularity.

    Shinto saw rasp (which I didn't know was even a thing until this thread): It has a coarse side: And a fine side: And some lens fluid and lens paper since it was cheaper than B&H: I didn't spring for the faster of the two shipping options, but after it sat in processing for over a...

    Picked up three different sizes of screwdriver shaft magnets: My hope was that the larger ones would fit on Wiha Drive-Loc System 6 blades (6mm hex) and the smaller ones would fit on System 4 blades (4mm hex). They fit perfectly: The third pair are a "one size fits all" deal -- they...

    And if there's even more room than those will work in, a right-angle driver adapter: The four bits it comes with are nor the normal length bits. But on the other hand, the shank that goes into the driver has the longer than euro anvil. Here's a comparison with a Wiha impact bit: I already...

    I also got flush cutters with the offcut hold feature: The offcut holders are replaceable and a bit rough around the edges (but whatever): You can see the holders extend past the cutting edges, which means whatever you're cutting you will first squeeze and hold with the holders (which...

    I placed my first amazon.co.jp order a few weeks ago. I figured bundling a bunch of things into one order would spread out the shipping cost so I ordered pretty much anything I thought about buying after reading this thread for a while. Here's what kicked it all off: I had some screws in...

    More affordable than rennsteig crimper option?

    2022 Lowe's deals/sales/clearance thread

    Maybe it makes up for how underpowered “The Freak” (combination impact driver/impact wrench) was? Taylor Tools is having $75 off $300 on Bosch as well. Some deals to be had if you’re in their battery ecosystem.

    To good to be true vol. 52

    Sold after 49 bids for $840. Now we just need to check the profile to see if there’s any negative feedback in a week or two from a sale gone wrong.

    Bosch barrel grip 18v — unless you really use it a lot for woodworking in which case Mafell though a cordless model is still a rumor at this point.

    Ebay or Auction Deals Permathread!

    I buy and sell computer parts on eBay. Not professionally, just the upgrade cycle as I find deals and convince myself I need them then sell what they're replacing. Sometimes, parts not commonly in demand will go right away if you price yourself 5% lower than the going rate, other times they will...
