Some of my vise grips are 30 years old and work like new. I have noticed the newer stuff with the duller finish is not as good. When I can find older ones I try to pick them up.

For the socket sets I am pretty much set on SK. That is a nice Blue Point set, but just not what I am looking for. I am hoping to start acquiring next week. I have a MAC Tech 1000 box an I think it will play nice with SK socket sets.

Since I am not Scrooge McDuck I will have to get each set as funding permits. First is the SK 91860(1/4" set) and the 94549(3/8" set). The former will come from Amazon and the latter will come from tooltopia due to price. That will be followed up by SK 4147-6(1/2" set). Then I will shop for...

I updated my location. I jumped on the box. I had to get a key and some drawer liners, but it is in decent shape. It has some scrapes, but no missing parts.

Around here people hold on to tools. Even cheap ones. I have found some tools on ebay such as pliers and channel lock brand pliers. I have $150 in my box and I want to get some add ons like a side box for it. I may repaint it. I have been scouring ebay for tools, but nothing real great has come...

I am just starting to build up a tool set and I have some questions. I have a Mac Tech Series 1000 and I am wondering how old it is. I have Kobalt tools in it that seem to work pretty good. I would love to pick up some Mac tools, but those are out of my price range. I am new to the Garage...
