Yes I have but not for the reasons already mentioned. My current job has me working in a rough part of town and I know the insurance coverage for theft tops out at here. I’m not going to loose thousands of dollars worth of tools in my good box so I have my smaller box with lower quality tools here.

I’ve always used and have been 98% successful using a Lisle brand crowfoot style socket, 3/8-1/2” adapter and my long flex head Snap-on ratchet. O2 sensors and diesel NOX sensors have come out without issue, a quick reef on the ratchet and they snap loose. Perhaps I’m just lucky.

Snap-on hard handle in orange. I have 3 sets.

What I’m doing is b vent through the wall via a thimble and vertically once it’s outside past the peek of my roof. No way in hell am I going to cut a hole in my steel roof.

I know a guy that has used his 4 post hoist in that manner, he has pallet racking in the rear of his shop and his hoist at the front. He’s got 4 cars stored on the pallet racking up top. I don’t believe any of the cars are running so they were all rolled into place and I have no idea how he...

Snap-on air hammer socket adapter has saved my *** so many times it’s not funny.

I have a Matco 5s in silver vein and it is awesome, you can’t even tell it’s dirty and finger prints don’t show up on it. I’ve always been fond of greys so it suits me very well.

Thanks for the replies. I’m putting it on my list of wants. Air isn’t an option in because I have to do a lot of repairs in the field and don’t have a compressor.

Has anyone tried the M12 stapler? I do a ton of school bus seat covers and not having to use a manual stapler will save my hands. TIA. Steve

I got a rapidair kit for my shop. Some DEWALT Robertson #2 driver hits for work.

It’s the nature of the world for normal people with normal responsibilities. Got it built and enclosed two years ago and just recently finished getting the osb on it. Lighting is done still need to get the ceiling insulated and the furnace hooked up. Lack of funds is holding me back but I’m...

Re: How many vises do you own? I have 3. A no name CH-ina one, my Parkenson Samsonia and a Craftsman Columbian.

Thank you for posting the information for me. A friend of mine has one with the quick release dynamic jaw and I’ve always wanted one of my own. I stumbled across tis one and pounced on it. I’ve mounted it to my bench this evening and it will be my primary vice. The Craftsman Columbian is now...

Here are my two new additions a Samsonia “perfect vice” model J and a Craftsman 5183. I’ve researched the Craftsman but I haven’t looked into the Samsonia.
