Where did you get your couplers at? 3/8 is hard to find!

Thanks for that tip on the coupler KMdef9! I've still got a lot to learn. I'll get another pic up soon!

I wanted the new 1/2" XT model but my local harbor freight has been sold out since I looked for one to buy at the beginning of this month. I had been using the old tried and true CP earthquake 1/2" aluminum impact wrench (700bls/ft of TQ) model and was ready to upgrade to something that was...

Thanks for the response! Turns out the bolt pattern doesn't line up... now to decide if I want to break the drill out...

I just happened upon a Dotco 12L series angle grinder brand new in box on CL for $100... Gotta hope it's not stolen... Assuming it checks out I'll probably pull the trigger regardless of whether or not it's the right one for me. I'm wondering though can you move the trigger to the front on a Dotco?

Thanks I really appreciate the reply! I was getting ready to pull the trigger on one of your products. I was originally torn between the 205QL Onyx and the 204 Onyx... As HP has never been an issue with even the Harbor Freight grinder I liked the 205QL for it's lower average CFM consumption at...

Has anybody had a chance to play with the latest and greatest from HF, the new CP Earthquake composite XT line? There up to 1000LB/FT now and they are a fair bit lighter. I'm going to pick one up this week hopefully... I'm very curious to see how much more noticeable power they provide...

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003YL4CA6/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Does anybody have any experience with these? Seem to get good reviews... And MD what do you mean by "the bit" I am turning? Just spinning 36 grit, 120 grit and fine grit 2" discs in conjunction with my mini random orbital sander which...

Thanks for all the great replies guys! I guess going for that $71 Ingersoll Rand model at Tractor supply isn't gonna cut it lol

Hey guys I'm looking for a new 1/4" angle die grinder. I have a small business reconditioning curb rashed wheels for car dealerships and I use my angle grinder all day long. I've been through about 3 Harbor Freight angle grinders in the last 4-5 months. I would keep replacing them but my god are...

Thanks for the responses guys. Vandalthree that talk on bearings really busted me up lol. This truly is one of the best forums/communities on the web. So I have an old pump from a very old crafstman compressor that works however the intake/exhaust is also flipped... is it easiest to try and...

Just noticed the intake is on the opposite side on that harbor freight pump... is that a deal breaker or do people just find a way around this? I'm fairly versed in shade tree mechanics so if there's a relatively straight forward way to do things I can usually get it done

Thanks for the response guys! I took the bolt off the flywheel but it does not seem to want to come off... As far as replacement goes I was looking a the harbor freight replacement pump here http://m.harborfreight.com/145-psi-3-hp-twin-cylinder-air-compressor-pump-67697.html I'm just not sure...

My compressor seized up on me the other day and it turns out it's the pump. That thing is not turning for anybody. I've taken the pump off and removed the oil pan and I've got no idea where to go from here... my intention was to install new bearings on the crankshaft but I'm at a loss as to how...

What's your opinion on the how the Craftsman premium grades compare to the slim profiles?

Also in my review I forgot to mention that the 75t mechanism is night and day better quality than my old 36 tooth. MY. GOD. So compared to what they had before I'm really just splitting hairs.

Well that's some good insight. Took em apart, everything fits but the release buttons as someone had said... I will say that the mechanisms fit much tighter in the housing on the 84t slim than the 75t. And after grabbing my old classic Craftsman I realized just how much sweeter the new low...

I'm tempted to take them apart and see if I can swap internals... Tempted as in, I'm going to take them apart and see if can swap the internals.

Also these are44996 L-AE (84t) and 20723 A-AE (75t)

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum but not new to working with tools. I just picked up Craftsman's 311 piece toolset in an effort to cease working out of the 2 hodge podge no name mobile toolsets that I've been using since I moved away from my dad's town where I had use of his glorious tool...
