    Campell Hausfeld 20 gallon replacement tank

    It may require buying a new check valve and some fittings but the discharge line is easily replaceable with copper tube with a 45* flare. The aluminum line on yours appears to have compression fittings. Either way it wouldnt be hard to adapt a pump/motor to another tank. I have actually used...

    Best Tool For Screw Removal

    Usually the hand impact driver works for me, the shake & break air hammer bit also has it's place (mine has a wrench hex, no handle). Drilling out the head works if it's rounded. IF you put them back in, use a good amount of antiseize and they really only need to be finger tight as they arent...

    Reverse Drill bits: Matco still best? or was it MAC?

    I've used mostly V/A & Norseman HSS bits and a couple individuals (Irwin, Cleveland, Snap-on, ete.), all worked within reason for what I was doing, Length was the only issue that would pop up at times. Cant say any were better/worse then the others.

    Rolling Head/Ladyfoot Pry Bars

    I've got the Sunex set, no issues even when I was doing doing truck & loader work. I do like the Snap-on's as the foot shape works better when using that feature (used co workers before), but have not had a reason to upgrade them.

    Any good? Magnetic Induction Heater Kit, 1000W

    That one appears to be a knock off of a Mini ductor brand unit. Mini ductor or Blot buster are both good units, a bit more spendy though. These are "game changer" tools in that you can do a lot with them and not need a torch, that alone makes it convenient. I use mine at work most everyday...

    Looking for Planer recommendations....

    The older Ridgid model (TP1300) we got in '07-'08 has worked very well. It also has a dust collection adapter that can be hooked up to a shop vac (needs a good size one). They had updated their models from a two knife to a three knife unit, which has been quite a while ago already, but looks...

    M12 Stubby 3/8” worth it?

    I have run into it where 1/2 drive sockets simply wont fit in places 3/8 drive would and this is with "stubby" low profile sockets as well as shallow & deep. I had that issue today actually with a Subaru when removing/installing brake caliper bracket bolts, 17mm socket, 1/2 drive would not fit...

    M12 Stubby 3/8” worth it?

    I use my stubby daily ("pro" use) with a 1/2 high torque and they play very well together. I do not use it for wheel nuts, No reason to as that is why I have 1/2 impact stuff. Bolts 10mm & under are the prime size for it to deal with, sometimes 12mm can be removed, but not always (excessive...

    New Gearwrench screwdrivers are sus

    Most of the Matco screwdriver are Witte. They did have a set made in Taiwan, they were similar handle style, but not the same as the Witte's. Not that much cheaper either IIRC and they likely discontinued them. Type in SSO8C in the search it shows the right item, click on them and it shows...

    Where can i buy a huge punch

    Mayhew does make a 1/2" pin punch, but that's the largest they offer, I didnt know they had one that large. https://mayhew.com/product/model-21401-419-12-reg-bl-ox-pin-punch/ All of the larger punches I have (depending on material & type) are home made, usually from a chunk of tie rod (Dodge &...
