    Snap On Flank Drive combos vs. Mac Precision Torque combos

    You already have good quality wrenchs, if you just want long I would look into extra long box wrenchs. The mountain/matco ratcheting flex ones are wicked. Youll get real good value out of them

    New air impact wrench whip setup for work

    I would oil it once a day and not worry too much. Air impacts are very reliable. If your a little down on air pressure, worst case you lose some power.

    Fate of Kobalt 24v

    Makita makes good stuff, but theyre new 18v tools don't work on their old 18v batteries and vice versa. It's all the same line, but only sort of

    Looking for an xtra long 3/8” drive Breaker Bar

    I keep an 18" 3/8 bar in my truck toolbox. More than adequate for wheels and minor repairs Saves me carrying a 1/2" socket set since I need a 3/8 kit anyway.

    Gearwrench Warranty, does it exist??

    Surprised that it broke, I use cheap Canadian tire chinesium 3/8 sockets on 18" ratchets all the time and have never split one. Even kicking the ratchet to crack GM factory locktited caliper bracket bolts That's horrible customer service, if I did break one I could go to any crappy tire and...

    What products are surprised HF doesn't offer?

    Probably done in the same factory, so the guy just did what he was used to.

    Need a beastly 1/2" ratchet

    3/4drive breaker bar, and just pick up the sockets as you need em. Even my cheap one is 3' long, nothing on my trucks has been difficult since I got it. Impacts where they fit are much easier ofcourse.

    New HF ICON Breaker Bars

    I have the old one under a different name, the drive shears off long before they break. Takes a good 4' of pipe to shear em off to, unless your jumping on it. Really don't see any reason to spend more

    Time to buy an impact wrench. Air or Battery powered?

    If you have a permanent compressor setup and aren't going to use it much, air still makes sense. Cordless wins the day for portability and convenience. I use the Ridgid gen5 Brushless, only 450lb-ft and it's extremely rare I need to run air,as a hobbyist. Fixing my work trucks and equipment.

    Best *Reasonably Priced* Ratchets

    Crappy tire warranty for hand tools is still hassle free here. Not that I've used it too much, but I broke 2 of the 2' breaker bars in a weekend and they didn't bat an eye. The extra long pro point ratchets are 72 teeth, PA is hassle free warranty as well. Haven't used the gearwrench, but I...

    Milwaukee vs Porter Cable impact wrench

    Likely because corded isn't very popular, the technology hasn't been continuously developed.

    Need some nail guns to build the garage.

    Do not use a framing nailer for vinyl, the heads on the nails are too small. If your going to use a gun for vinyl siding, you need a roofing nailer with the siding attachment,i believe only bostitch works with it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N5GN00L/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Is the only option I...

    Need some nail guns to build the garage.

    Yeah if your just building one project, any old framing nailer will work. I used a Campbell hausfeld cheapie for 3 or 4 years as a roofer, at least a few times a week use. Roofing guns, stick to bostitch or Hitachi. Sell it when your done for 3/4 what you paid

    Need some nail guns to build the garage.

    I really don't like the siding attachment for roofing mailers, I just hand nail siding. It really doesn't take long.
