The non flex heads are much more common in industrial applications where you tend to have more access to the bolts. They are less prone to damage from leaning hard on them. I've had non reversable offset speed wrenches, those are real stupid because it makes it almost impossible to install a...

1/4" shallow and deep maybe up to 15 or so, variety of extensions, wobble extensions, Roto Head Ratchet, 3/8ths female to 1/4" male to use with air or electric ratchet. The smaller profile of the 1/4" makes it a lot easier to fit the socket into places. The 1/4" roto head ratchet can fit in...

My favorite is made in prc

I have a set of Tektons (deep standard 1/2), Pittsburgh's (deep metric 1/2), and SK universals (standard depth Metric 3/8). Tektons are nicer then the PBurghs for sure. Tektons are still made in Tiwan, but they moved most of their Chinese manufacturing to either Tiwan or US. If you buy...

I love mine, I have the M12 3/8ths non fuel version. I was looking to buy into a battery system at the time ( had some porter cable stuff, but their lineup was limited at the time), and I liked the variety of the M12 so that's why I chose Milwaukee. I have no regrets, but porter cable has...

I would think so, but when using a wire nut you should twist the wires together and use an appropriately size nut. Twisting the wires together holds the wires together, and at that point the wire nut is most mostly acting to insulate the splice. If you cut the end of the wires so they are all...

The electric ones are not very powerful. I have a cheap $20 HF air ratchet and it walks circles around the Milwaukee electric one. Still None of the air ratchets are anywhere near as powerful as an impact gun, always have to break the bolt loose first and then use the ratchet to spin it out.

If going metal cap I would say 16ga is good. Much thinner and you cut it open, have it flex too much. Not getting any benefit of thicker with it on top of plywood. With no backer I would say no thinner then 10ga. Stainless is great, yeah shows a lot of scuffs and stains, but cleans easy and...

they sell both.

I would say brand is solely dependent on local support. If you have to drag it an hour and a half to get parts for it...... I have a local shop that reps Branson, Mahindra, TYM, couple others, about 15/20min one way. Has much better support then the local Kubota dealer, about the same distance...

Not the first time I’ve heard that SO takes a dump on their non us customers. From the us website, every KRA box I could find was USA made.

Honestly can’t remember. I assume the push in kind would cost less, so it would make sense if that what they were. Like I said before they came preinstalled in all the drop ceiling lights, would hope they were rated for the application.

The ones I looked at on their website were marked as Made in USA. Although I didn’t look at all of them

Strangely enough I will think nothing of using Spring connectors on low voltage DC circuits in industrial machinery, and will refuse to use wire nuts. But for AC circuits I feel the opposite. I've seen wire nuts come loose in areas with a lot of vibrations, so screw terminals for 230v and 480v...

I’m interested in seeming some feedback on this too. I reached out to them on their website with a similar question and haven’t gotten a response. Been about a month.

I've heard good things about the Stor-Loc cabinets, don't know about shipping to Can. Snap-Ons Heritage/ KRA boxes seem like a decent price for a USA box.

I noticed them on their website a while ago, but they were labeled as coming soon. Just got that same email.

I would assume it would much more expensive then sheet goods. Quick look on the Depots website shows $.67 per foot for 3 1/2" wide board I was talking about putting up lath horizontally across the poles and then paneling the walls with individual tongue and groove. I'm sure you can get...

Tongue and groove bead board. Smoother finish so it looks nicer on an interior then the t1-11.

Guy I use to work with told me this story. Had a ball buster of a foremen, no one could get along with him, real POS. Everyone knew where he lived, right across the street from a school. Couple guys got together to put one over on him. Couple bags of the white stuff, and revolver with the...
