Yes it’s a long C

Here’s a set I picked up this weekend. The 7/8” is cracked in multiple spots.

I stopped by my parents’ neighbor’s house the other day to check out some things before the estate she was having. Her late husband had a Triumph and a Harley and apparently most of the tools had been taken by relatives already but this box of tools caught my eye and I threw out a fair number...

I picked up some more tools from the dealer recently. First is the 1/4” nut driver 9S-1722 posted in here. Having the ability to put a ratchet on the back end is something I didn’t have in a nut driver. I picked up two ratchet adapters as well. 1/4” female to 3/8” male is 213-4437 and 3/8”...

I’ll be posting more in the CAT tools thread later, but here’s the short pattern set I just got in.

You can add an item from each location nearby and then go through and look at them in your cart. About half of the Lowes near me showed $59 and the other half showed $99.

Good catch on this one! My version from January 2025 lists it as a 9 piece set, but only lists the 8 bits and skips the 6mm. I’ll see if I can inform them of the error.

I found applicable tools this weekend at an estate sale. One Craftsman Clench Wrench 42308, 3/8” - 11/16” and a 3 pc set of Robo Grips. I’ll probably put these up on eBay, but it’s cool learning about all of these different, “unique” tools. Here’s so pictures below.

SOLD SOLD SOLD Cleaning out old misc tool bits and parts. Yoke and threaded rod are in good shape. Tip on threaded rod is good too. $25 shipped. Venmo or Paypal (split fee if G&S)

It’s an E8 in the Torx set, 194-3540. Which is funny because the E8 in the E-Torx set is 227-4388. It doesn’t look like 227-4388 is available individually, but 194-3540 is.

Here’s the T55 from the CAT set as mentioned they are not the HD bits .

I’ve got these manuals sitting around for yard equipment I no longer own. Can ship for about $5 which will cover all or just one if that’s all you want. Just don’t want to toss them if someone can use them.

Older CAT ratchets were Proto pearheads. Identical except for the brand marks and PN.

Milwaukee max bite combo wrenches marked down from $75 to $45 at my local HD.

That magnet is likely this Blue-Point magnet. https://shop.snapon.com/product/Magnetic-(Mirrors-Pick-Up-Tools)/Pick-Up-Tool-(Blue-Point)/PT28E I don't see the SAE, 12 point, 3/8" sockets as a complete set. They are in other groups with more sockets, but yeah it's weird they don't come in just a...

Do you need your hole to be 6mm or 6.00mm? Are you doing this in a milling machine? If you're just doing this for a tight fit with a 6mm screw, I would measure the actual diameter and select a drill bit based on that. If the screw has a shoulder, that will add a few thou to your measurement...

Kobalt wrenches sold!

Yes, the main feed coming in is aluminum wiring as well. GJ seemed as good as place as any to get some good feedback on this and I haven't done much with home rewiring. A friend of mine who worked doing forensics analysis mentioned several cases they studied with aluminum wire fires in homes and...

Thanks for the help everyone. It's about a 40' run from the breaker to the range. There's about 8' in the crawlspace, but being a split level, the rest is through an interior wall or maybe ceiling. I still need to do some more work there if I am looking to re-wire, but it's definitely involved...

Hello! I replaced the outlet for my GE electric oven & range combo yesterday as there was a near thermal event in the previous outlet that was installed loosely on the floor. The stove burners and oven heat were not working, so I investigated. The house was built in 1967 and the stove is wired...
