    Tailgate party in your shop

    This would be a fun project. I suppose it would be easiest to find an out of work Dodge bed to use. The Fords will still be working on the ranch, the Chevys will be hauling groceries, and the Dodges probabaly don't run.

    Bent my Snappy Breaker-Bar....darn

    It bent, have it replaced. You paid the premium price for that warranty. I used 3/8th and 1/2 inch all of my short career as a wrench. Added 3/4 a couple years ago. Never bent my Snap-On and I leaned into it plenty of times, no cheater. Keep it and get bigger. There is a place for every tool.

    What should I do with this Snap On wrench??

    It has history. Some day you will be buggered for a fit, and gramps will come through.

    Reccomend a floor jack?

    While I want a Hein-Werner, I have an Arcan 3.5 ton. I hate buying cheap Asian junk, but this one is 4 years old with no problems. Cost around a hundred bucks I think.

    My first "anvil" Why did I wait 30 years?

    Been waiting for a good anvil to pop up. Sadly people seem to know what they are worth.

    Nice quality control Snap On. WTF?

    It could be worth a fortune like a 1955 double striker penny!

    Just got burglarized, what do I do now?

    Re: Just got Robbed, what do I do now? Those signs can work against you in the courtroom if you ever have to defend your home. I'd suggest taking them down.

    Mac Tech 1000 vs Harbor Freight 41/44 tool boxes

    I bought my lower end Snap-On box set in 1979. About 9 years ago SO replaced the bottom box because it had an issue. In my opinion Mac is a much better box than SO. I buy US made where and when I can and do my best to avoid foriegn products and keep my purchasing power in the US. Hard in...

    Mac Tech 1000 vs Harbor Freight 41/44 tool boxes

    Wangstang, what do you think? It is your money. The Macimizer is the very best US made box in the business in my opinion. The Tech series is just a bit below but still very good. I think that box is Mac's best seller. The HF box brings to bear all of the awesome magnificience of the peoples...

    SK Tools will not warranty a lot of tools

    When I was first starting out in the 70's I bought a pile of SK tools. Over the next couple years I traded most towards SO for face value. Kept the metric box ends and tubing wrenches. They are still in service today, haven't broke one yet. I have been forced to abuse a few tools in a few...

    Tecumseh Carbs (snowblower)

    While Kohler anf Briggs make the best small engines, I am not a Tecumseh hater. I have run the ever living **** out of them with good luck. Yes, their carbs are more finicky, but I am sorry to see them go. Cheap engine company gone the way ot the dinosaur and no new US company to replace...
