I don't understand the price differences at across the HD stores. Will an HD in my neck of the woods honor the price of an HD in a different state? If someone picked up one of these for <$10 and has the receipt, can they post or message it? Thanks,

Pickup is at a local K-Mart. I needed a set...Thanks! Ray

John gave me a number to try, 352 263-3587. You may have to have them ask around different people in the shop but in the end they came up with the seal. Good Luck, Ray

A big thanks to emeraldcoupe (John) for help on locating this part! Ray

I'm looking for a discontinued "seal" for my Porter Cable Finish Nailer - DA250. It isn't anything as simple as a gasket or o-ring, but the kind of soft, white-ish material they use so making my own isn't a quick fix. Has anyone ran into replacing piece 106 (diagram), PN 883914? I was hoping...

I picked this up from the flea market for a few bucks, plagued with a bad switch. It looks like a Black and Decker model. The tag doesn't have much info left on it, except for "Type 1". Does anyone recognize the model or have a part number for a replacement switch? Thanks, Ray

At the risk of hijacking this thread, what is a good source of information when it comes to refurbishing old (hand) power tools? I have a metal bodied B & D 3/8" drill with a dry rotted power cord (& strain relief) and the grease in the gears is like paste. What is a good grease to use on...

Okay, I like tools and have a thing for old tools. When I saw this vintage level at the flea market for $1; you know the story. So it is missing two vial covers and a third is broke. Is there someone more familiar with tools of this era and know if this is a clone (maybe Stanley), if parts...

I picked up a couple of neglected ratchets over the weekend to see if I could bring them back to life. I'm assuming this WorkForce is an import but it looks like a 72 tooth, quick-release ratchet. The pawl was broken so as it sits, it's dead and I don't think it's a warranty-able item. With...

Thanks for all the replies! Ray

I've tolerated the smell in the garage from my Craftsman screwdrivers but that's about as far as it goes. This set of tools is used on the family cars & maintaining our home, so tools are used in our home too. I passed on the recent screwdriver deals here:( Sams Club has a set of Channellock...

A couple have slipped out of the wrapper over the years and I'd like to replace them: 5/16" x 3/8" PN - WOE1012 3/8" x 7/16" PN - WOE1214

Dropped by a Tampa HD & the white shelf tag reads $10 so even at $1.25 a bit it's not bad; they ring in at $5.00! Thanks! Ray

I've never used a Cross-Form. Are they longer or just easier on the hands? Thanks,

Ahhhh...thanks. If I'm replacing ball joint should I replace both? At this point, with 130K on the van should I replace the control arm bushings? thanks,

Rotating the tires on Grand Caravan, greasing the lower ball joints and one of them has a hole in the boot. Between this forum and OWWM I'm running out of space in the garage. I'll need a press to replace them. How big do I need: 6, 12 or 20 ton? I'm assuming the HF (or CL) will do...

Yeah, right on the edge for 110 and I was ready to run a dedicated 220 line. Since it's kicked on just a couple of times I can check the resistance across the pressure switch again...and see how it behaves without the belt hooked up. thanks,

I haven't tried the motor by itself but have tried it on another line - kept tripping the GFI. The power cord is 10 AWG. thanks,

(If there is a dedicated air compressor thread that covers all this, please let me know.) I horse traded for a Speedaire (Grainger brand) air compressor: 3Z428B 2HP Motor = Dayton 9K328G Compressor = 2Z499A When I got it the motor wouldn't cycle on, checked the pressure switch and one side...

Thanks, ran some oil through it and dropped in a the drawer: Enjoy your Thanksgiving!
