    hobart welder

    I got a Hobart Handler 140 at Tractor Supply and like it a lot. They're great for body work and light fabrication. I put it on an Chi-Com welding cart that cost around $40.00.

    Help sourcing some tools

    Hello Rosso, That is a very large socket for 1/2" drive. Maybe you can find an O.T.C. brand truck wheel bearing hub socket in 1 -13/16" to do the job. As to the spanner 1- 5/16" wrenches are common here. While not exactly 34mm I'll bet it would fit ok.

    Better than Snap-On...

    Best of luck with them. It looks like the open end part is a little bulky for me. It could be just the picture.Now go forth and purchase a set of Snapons and your sins will be forgiven.

    Matco vs Mac vs Snap on?

    I have found that all of those 4 tool company's wrenches will do the job. As far as comfort of use and less importantly eye appeal Snap-On is the best. I don't want to be paying 4 tool truck dealers every week so I picked Snap-On and stay with them.

    FLAT RATE MECHANICS Any secrets to being more productive and turning BIG hours??

    If you are a new mechanic I would recommend avoiding flat rate like the plague .I worked it in GM dealers for 28 years. I had to work with *** kissers and buddies of the service mgr. and service writers. We called them Gravy Suckers. I'm sure you will be happier in a non flat rate environment...
