    Painting concrete walls in basement shop

    I recently moved into a new house built in the late 60's with a poured concrete foundation. I have a great basement shop space, the problem is it is very dark and dingy. I know if I don't brighten it up now, I will never do it once all my tools and benches are moved in. I decided I don't...

    Who uses and likes these mobile battery jump packs?

    Hang on to that NOCO. I got one a few years back. It is one of the better electronic devices I have ever owned. It jumps dead as a doornail batteries in freezing conditions no problem. I throw it on a charger every 6 months or after I use it. Still good as new. Sent from my iPhone using...

    Craftsman/Stanley Factory Texas

    It would be nice if they could manufacture in such such a way as to drop the “from global materials” tag. I guess that is wishful thinking given they are aiming for a specific pricepoint. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

    Would this ratchet serviceability complaint bother you?

    The reviewer should not be allowed near anything more complex than a garden rake.

    I did something to my Wera ratchet today.

    I think it looks pretty sweet.

    2021 Garage Sale Thread

    I snagged this toolbox at an auction for $100. It had about $200 worth of tools in it so I guess I did ok. I cant tell what year this was made. I know other boxes have a code stamped on them but this has nothing but the snapon badge and some mouse poo in the drawers. Sent from my iPhone...

    Show your Indestro and Duro-Chrome tools

    I recently bought a box with some random old sockets. There are a handful of Indestro 1/2 drive sockets. I have two that are the same size with the same part number. One has the knurling around the side and one has two bands. Just different production years? Sent from my iPhone using...

    Tekton’s new USA hammers.

    Looks very similar, I know they have been expanding in house manufacturing though. Always good to see new US made offerings! Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal

    Husky Tools! What Happened?

    I recently cracked an old US husky socket. God knows how many times it had been reefed on before that. I took it to HD and they swapped it out with a new but certainly not improved lump of China’s finest pot metal that had been made to approximate the shape of a 14mm deep socket. Maybe ill...

    Need help with tool ID

    Yeah thats what I came up with too. Ill just assume it is a priceless treasure and treat it as such. Or ill just use it as a chisel or to open paint cans. Probably the latter. Sent from my iPhone using Garage Journal
