I have Armstrong/Matco ratchets and sockets. Do you need measurements? The 1/2" Armstrong ratchet+socket fits places a normal 1/4 drive ratchet+socket does not...

Those are great for scribing lines in dykem!

Legos are fuggin expensive, and the knock off brands are no where near the quality of name brand Legos. I imagine you could do a lot with wood/plastic stock. Couple of dowels and some drills and Bob's your uncle!

Why no tethered tools if they are so expensive or frequently lost?

McMaster has one that is very similar in size: https://www.mcmaster.com/2757A21/

There are lots of brand new Snap-on tools listed on ebay that are more expensive than shop.snapon.com .

I think you would be fine with kitchen scissors, or those ones that cut pennies in half.

I think you can cut the foam with scissors and remove the really tiny socket cut outs. Then you can put whatever you want in the void.

Looking for 1/4, 3/8, 1/2, 3/4 fine tooth ratchet adapters.

Yes, noseeums ****! The screen that keeps those out also restricts airflow, raises room temperature, and obfuscates visibility during rain, AND noseeums still find a way in...

I wonder how long before there is an aftermarket repair kit for these old ratchets. There is obviously a market, and the supply is shrinking.

Nice machine besides the obvious replacement chineese range selector knob

Oh yeah, and the ends of the aluminum screen are sharp. If you aren't paying attention while trimming the excess, you look down and have a red dotted line going down your thumb...

My experience with aluminum screen wasn't worth the expense. It was harder to install and wasn't "pet proof". A husky puppy paw tore it open within 10 minutes of it being installed... I replaced it with the cheaper stuff and it stretched (and returned to shape) when the dog put paws on it vs...

You guys have some beautiful property!

I agree, the aluminum screen is a waste of money. What I found matters the most is the size of the squares. Smaller squares keep out more bugs than the larger squares, but they also restrict air flow (your porch will be a few degrees warmer) and when wet you cannot see through them. The larger...

Pictures would help. Is there an aluminum track the screen is held in? There should be a rubber rope in a trough that holds the screen tight by friction if so. You will need a roller and a utility blade as far as tools go... Maybe a pick or flat blade screw driver to remove the old rope.

Try heating the pipe. That will make the tape stick better.
