The 2.5-Ton HB Pittsburg model is used around here and if it's anything like the 1.5's they just need attention constantly. The bolts at the lift-lever hinge constantly come lose (Red LocTite) and the C-clips for the rest are cheap so they just disappear. You'll find them later when you roll...

I roll in this hot rod Lincoln and the roads on base are, well, governmental with their ability to do anything right. Posting this to show I'm mobile and bounce too: What I've basically done is (already noted above) get some 3-bag set of Klein canvas bags with different colors (probably...

I'm thinking some tool truck should bring keg-o-rators back as gifts and pretty much some fancy Laz-y-Boy shop office chair. A keg-chair!? Come on Snap-On, I don't need glass pint glasses in the shop (I run fast and break things), I need a CO2 keg chair!

That Erson Cams sticker would be nice to have...and my dad's tool box that had all those great older stickers on them. Evil stepmother said dad's tools were off limits when he passed...she, at that point, made the c**t list. I learned new names in the 80's from looking at those stickers when...

I can't complain too much about a $45 crescent if it's good steel, great quality, people back to work, feeding their families, have a valid warranty, and not Chinesium **** for $7 made by child labor and horrible regimes that historically enslave and/or slaughter their own people. Spain is fine...

Agreed. Battery high speed anything hasn't impressed me as of yet no matter what brand it is. I'm more than fine with cordless on everything else, but brushless high RPM tools **** the life out of any battery tech I've met. I've got 5 minutes to cut this thing and I better have another $100...

It's going to be a bit awkward once tapped. Sitting there, talking to your friends, pumping the keg... That thing is sharp! I don't know what Kegs run anymore or I'd follow that build. Man, a Pony would even be good for side panel work and not shop talk. Love it...ya got me sparked.

Good question. Replacement for a Dremel or what I think of as a cut-off saw in straight and 90-degree? This older PT210's box said it's an "angled die grinder", then there's a straight version...which a cut-off saw can and will do and why that 90-degree exists here in the tool box. A straight...

I ain't done that, this is the internet! It just SEEMS like I'd hit it with a hammer and it'd fall over. I'm simply reacting to the photo and I'd want it bolted down. It's really just sitting there on the floor and stable? I didn't follow the previous thread about the vise shown to see it's...

Straight. That's used most of the time and I would rather call them cut-off saws...that also take die grinding bits. As prior stated, the 90-degree is good for finishing. 3M roloc stuff that also accepts cut-off wheels but is not a great cut-off tool. I guess the question still stands, what are...

Same scenario, different wife...and the green ones. I am a known trash panda here at work and found some carbon/Kevlar ejection seat bases, from what I believe are from the F-18 SH shop, over the weekend on a call-out. I asked on Tuesday if the seat padding that velcros to them were available...

Tool box aside, I went to a ratty El Cajon CA store on memorial day to use the 25% off coupon on that Chief impact gun and they didn't even look at it or scan it. Just take off the 25% and get the hell out of here mister. This may be toward the employees of El Cajon in general (the **** of San...

yup, discussing it on the general tool box thread just now. Here's the link: https://go.harborfreight.com/20-percent-off-coupons/

I was watching that as I'm continually planning my own out, and wondered if it's just bad to have a car up on a lift and another car under it. It's asking for trouble but if you're on the locks, what could possibly go wrong? Wouldn't a door aimed to one side more than the other at least allow...

Was eyeballing a Chief long neck air hammer so I regret not being on this coupon list. I'll sign up and see if I get 20 or 25% off in July. I think it's obvious that it goes where the Craftsman currently is and see where THAT one goes instead. That's a sharp looking box *giggles* and from this...

1/4 back from center seems pretty generic/average. It's going to be bolted down onto something so I never see it as top-heavy or tippy. That picture, if never mounted, just seems like it only holds things to cut or grind and not crank on things, so that's where I go to 1/4 back from center since...

That's a common review for users of Flexzilla hoses that I've seen in places with actual weather that I've read. I can wonder if it's fixed all I want and order another set for a friend in another state for testing I guess. Screw it, I'll do it. Sending my friend a Flexzilla garden hose up...

GIFT10 I got the email March 10th and posted May 6th. Left it off due to the following "Enter the promo code at checkout on Tekton.com to receive the discount. Expires Tuesday, March 15, at 11:59 p.m. ET. See details" The Honey Add-on for your browsers does that too. They find 22 promo codes...

I think it is, and that it's a 50' hose. I've yet to find a 50' hose that doesn't kink when just pulled out when not on a reel, be it air, water, electrical, or just rope. With patience and a bit of lay-out I know it won't kink. But having Mr. Murphy on my side, something else will go wrong...

Yeah, that's sad really. My initial thought on the bigger boxes were "it's snap on, they have to be red" since that's all I seen most of my life until they got fancy with the emoji...err colors. Candy Apple Red is on there, but it's not the SO/Craftsman red at all when set by each other. My...
