Wandering around Advance Auto and found 3 of these on the shelf for 5 bucks each. Perfect fit for my oversized travel mug and zep spray bottles.

Another vote for Vessel here.

I've had a pair a low/mid-tier Fiskars for more than a decade and never felt the need to get something better. The long handles loppers take care of anything the hand pruners won't. I'm not exactly running a topiary garden, but they see fairly regular use and I'm always glad I have them.

If I were a tech working at an independent shop where any old, neglected POS might come through the door I'd take a long look at SO flank drive extra or Koken z series as they're touted as being a more precise fit. Doubly so if I was in the rust belt. As a cheap *** diyer even I have pried open...

With that Suicidal Tendencies sticker there should be at least one Pepsi on that cart. It's all he wanted...

16 and 18 are pretty common on my VW.

My two thinnest 3/8 ratchet heads are the Tone listed above at 11mm/.43in and a Gearwrench 84t at 12.25mm/.48in. I also have an Apex made Husky 72t ratchet that's the same thickness as the GW. I know Tone also sells a Subaru specific spark plug socket and extension set where the extensions all...

For me it's all about being able to sneak around various fittings, hoses, brackets, etc, that are always in the way of what you're actually trying to get to. Pretty much every underhood job starts with the longest ratchet that I can fit to break a fastener free, then a stubby to spin it out...

The 1/4 drive sockets from my 90's Husky USA set don't have detents, but the 3/8 and 1/2 all do.

I found kerosene at Home Depot. They sell it as heater/lamp fuel. Not cheap, but it works out way cheaper than spray cans of motorcycle chain cleaner.

You could try soaking the inserts you have left in wintergreen oil. It softens and rejuvenates old dried out rubber.

I bought these from Eastwood for less than $50 shipped. 10-19 no skips and made in Taiwan.

This is also what I end up doing as well, and according to most of the other replies to my question I'm not the only one. I don't know why I didn't think of it before, but the 3mm adjuster fits in a pair of 5 inch vise grips and holds it tight enough to do what I need to without having to clamp...

My motorcycle has screw type valve adjusters that use a 3mm square to set clearance and a 9mm nut to lock it down. I'm currently using a tool from Motion Pro that uses a small, knurled wheel for the 3mm square and I have real trouble holding it still while trying to tighten the locknut. Even...

The HF closest to me also has the G2 flex head ratchets tethered to a display in store for anyone to get a feel for. I've got my bases covered for ratchets atm, but they seemed pretty nice for the money. If I was in the market for locking flex heads or long pattern ratchets, I would definitely...

I'd open my wallet if they offered a set of mid depth metric sockets in 1/4 inch drive.

Passed by a yard sale in the neighborhood yesterday and picked up a Husky 15 inch 3/8 ratchet for $15.

Husky also sells a set with metric/sae hex and torx.

I have the older BT only version of these and don't use them much anymore for the reason you mentioned. I tried doubling up by putting some foam plugs first then the earmuffs but it mostly killed the point of having music at all. Now I use a set of BT earbuds with Peltor X5(highest NRR I could...

Yup... a heat gun, alcohol, goof off, or goo gone and plastic razor blades are your friends here. Those look like paper stickers that peel like **** when fresh and those look old. The kind that peel off in shreds or layers leaving all the adhesive behind with a thin layer of paper. It helps to...
