    Why Buy Snap-on?

    Got a question for y'all - What are some really good European hand tool makers? Ratchets, sockets, pry bars and the like. Snap-On, MAC, MATCO seem to be the mainliners by name for some. I like the person's idea a few posts back. He said he is replacing some of his tools with more industrial...

    Overseas Jack Rebuild Help Tutorial.

    BTW - The total repair cost for my old friend was $4 Am old enough to not to tell the wife that I "borrowed" one of her favorite containers. If she mentions anything, I'm going to remind her of when she used my new MATCO screwdriver to dig up weeds. After 34 years of marriage it's times...

    Watching for the deals pays off big time. Extra batteries are always a welcome plus. I seen those jackets and I like them. Can't really use them here but my brother in Maine might. He'd get a kick outta it. Even at 65, my brother still races quads every weekend. The ole goat wins his fair...

    That's a solid set! My brother in-law works for Trane doing HVAC maintenance and install. Sold him the M12 and M18 Fuel Combo sets few months ago. Now he buys only the bare tools he needs. He loves the M12 because it doesn't take up a lot of room in his toolbag and easy on the arms for...

    Ign - Believe you're right on target. The 2451 is a darn good impact. Light and usually powerful enough to get most everything done. All with low weight and easy use. Great choice for most. Wallet size and power are almost always the usual deal breakers. The M12 - 2451 has 83 ft-lbs (1,000...

    Unlucky me - New to the forum and already making someone unhappy. Yes your set came with two 2.0 batts. As for being off topic - thought we were discussing Milwaukee M12 sets?

    Sorry if I confused you. Yes I have added extra batteries for selected buyers. This set happened to have come with two 1.5 Ah batteries. I had a couple extra 1.5's so I'll toss them in for a good buyer or a friend. Everybody seems to want the latest and greatest. Makita, DeWalt, Milwaukee...

    I sell Milwaukee tools. When I know I'm working with a fellow vet and especially someone who cares about their tools. I get a little softer to work with.

    If it wasn't so expensive to list and sell on E-Bay and PayPal I'd sell my Milwaukee Cordless tools there. I list the M12/2543 FUEL Kit for $120. But I include 4 new 1.5Ah batteries instead of two with charger and hard case. E-bay Customer Svc recommends to list everything with "free Shipping"...
