    The VINTAGE toolboxes of Garage Journal!

    Can somebody educate me? I would have walked by that at a yard sale without stopping to look.

    I prefer QR too, but a lot of guys on here hate it.

    Shopvac hose adapter

    I don't, my kid does. That may be the way I'll have to go.

    Shopvac hose adapter

    I should have gotten pics, but didn't. My 1-1/4" ID hose didn't fit on the smaller side, either outside or inside the small end of the adapter. A bit frustrating, since this is exactly what I need, just not the right size.

    Do you use vintage tools?

    I'd try to find a kid who needs decent tools and set him or her up with whatever you have duplicates of. Selling is less attractive because its so difficult to get enough out of them to make it worth your time, but hopefully gifting them to someone who will use and appreciate them is easier and...

    Shopvac hose adapter

    That's not what it says in the ad, it says 1.25 OD OR 1.5 ID. 2 different hoses, not 2 ways to measure/describe the same hose. It's coming my way regardless. I'll let you know how it works out.

    Shopvac hose adapter

    That's exactly what I'm looking for, but my small hose is 1-1/4" ID. I'm not certain it will fit my smaller hose, but I've picked up this and a couple other options, will see if I can cobble something together that works better than my last experience. Thanks all!!

    Shopvac hose adapter

    Good evening. I’ve bought a new shop vac with 2-1/2” hose. I’d like to be able to use my old 1-1/4” hose and attachments to extend the hose. Google and Amazon are only getting me various versions of this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00M3IOUUS?tag=atomicindus08-20 I feel like the hoses will slip...

    What kind of tools have you found in the road??

    Found a winch bar at the top of the entrance ramp closest to my house recently

    Stupid is, as stupid does.

    I just had to pay $87 to get a shop to recalibrate a brake light switch on my wife's Buick. I wonder if this scanner would handle tasks like that? I should have just bought something like this, I'd be a quarter of the way to paying for it...

    Got the new Icon G2 1/4 stubby

    I like my T72, but I also get a fair bit of use out of my Titan micro 1/4". I could see a stubby being handy, even in 1/4" drive. I'm definitely a buyer for a stubby 3/8 when the Icon version is available. Can't justify the SO premium for that particular tool.

    Knipex Electrician’s Shears

    Are these vastly superior to the venerable Klein/Fiskars data cable snips I've been using for 30 years?
