I've been using a Power Probe for a few years now and I love it. Just last year, I bought this...

This might be a better option for my wife than the 1/2" Fuel Milwaukee I bought her. I sure do feel bad when she gives me those puppy dog eyes as she's outside changing the tire on my car when we get a flat. I can clearly see her struggling with the weight of the Fuel. Poor girl. This looks like...

I just talked to Home Depot's live chat and the lady gave me Husky's phone number. If they can't help me, I'll probably just pull the lock and take it to a local locksmith and see if they can help me. I do like the locks with the barrel keys (or whatever they're called, LOL).

Hey all. I want to replace my lock cylinder with one that's keyed different. I'm NOT looking for replacement keys unless they come with a new cylinder and it's keyed different. I'm having a hell of a time trying to find an exact one that looks like this, aside from the fact that I don't know if...

I knew that this was going to end up with a ton of suggestions, and that's what I was looking for. I'm sure at least a little has changed in the past 3 years since the 2017 threads that I was looking at. Thanks for all of the suggestions. It looks like I have some research and Googling to do!

Hey everyone. Am I the only one that doesn't ever get any relevant results when I use the search bar? I've tried doing a google search "Screwdrivers garage journal," but mostly find 2017 or older posts. Anyways, I'm looking for a basic Philips/flat blade screwdriver set. I've used the 8 piece...

I had the older version of this light by Snap-On: https://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-SNAP-ON-400-LUMEN-RECHARGEABLE-POCKET-LIGHT-ORANGE/333350136548?epid=9034657239&hash=item4d9d376ae4:g:G3QAAOSwD0ddl2qK At nearly $100 a piece, it really made me mad when the few that I dropped fell apart. I will say...

I've had one of these crimpers for a few years now and have made hundreds of crimps with it. from 4 awg to 2/0, and have only had one issue right after I got it where the jaws wouldn't release. A few taps with a hammer and they released. I used to do the ole solder and heat shrink, but that...

I know you said you don't want cheap HF stuff, but I have had this kit in my plow truck for 4 years now: https://www.harborfreight.com/tool-kit-with-case-130-pc-63248.html It's gotten it's fair use and abuse over the years in very cold weather and has held up fine. Obviously it's no quality...

I have 4 step bits that I got from the Snap-On truck (Bluepoint? I forgot) (The kit with 3, and then I got the bigger one). I recently needed a larger hole than the SO ones would drill, so I got this kit. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0177PN6SI/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I have hundreds of holes...

This is going to sound really stupid, but I do not plan on using the 1/4" drive impact sockets as impact sockets. I just thought that it was nice to have the extensions, a swivel, swivel sockets, deep and shallow all in metric and standard in a single case for ease of transport and because I'm...

As stated earlier, the fakes are pretty easy to spot. #1 give away is that "Milwaukee" isn't on the side. You'd be surprised how many people sell "generic" batteries and don't even try to copy the writing. The other giveaway is the price. If it's super cheap, it's probably a...

I'm going to say that my #1 is the cordless (Milwaukee) Impact guns and ratchets that I just bought within the past few months. They're game changers for me. I'm lazy as ****. In the past, if I had a small job, I'd avoid walking over to the air and just use hand tools. Now, I can just go to my...

ATD: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00A7ERB9W/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Sunex: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000HAX1JK/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Has anybody ever used both? I'm on a quest to buy 1/2, 3/8, and 1/4" sets like these in cases like these are. I already have the 3/8 one from Sunex and love it. I...

If the batteries are the same, why not just get the bare tools? I don't have much knowledge on the older stuff so I'm not sure if it is compatible, but if it is, it's likely much cheaper. I have been getting my Milwaukee stuff from Amazon or Ebay.

Sorry, yes, it was the Husky 61". The top box is pretty nice, but the bottom one is pretty flimsy. I haven't got around to buying new slides for it yet. I've never replaced any on any box so I'm not sure how easy/difficult it is. I can't imagine it's too bad?

I bought a 61" (IIRC) top and bottom about 5 years ago. I have my sockets/ratchets in the top drawer. About a year after owning it and light to moderate use, two of the slides broke.

Why doesn't Astro make a small precision heat gun?

I've wanted one of those ratchets forever and finally bought one a few months ago. I LOVE it. Before, due to laziness, I would just use a regular ratchet instead of walking my fat *** to the compressor and turning it on, then locating the air ratchet. Now, I reach for this thing every time. I...

I've just added both Sunex kits to my cart. I think they will fit the bill the best as far as quality to price, including the warranty. I may go for a different brand though if I ever need individuals. Thank you all for your suggestions. You made it easy!
