How many of ya'll use them regularly and what styles do you prefer? Do you use them only for what they were intended (eg electronics) or do you also use them on plastic (eg zip ties) or do you have special pliers for each? I see knipex and snap on amongst others make 'plastik' cutters (eg...

I like this idea alot. :thumbup: .... Snap on p/n 38mswhldr

This is a neat take on a common tool--a deburring bit that fits into a 1/4 inch magnetic driver. The benefit of this is saved real estate in the box or portable toolkit. :thumbup: Just thought I'd share and see if people were interested in this, or post similar tools (make useful tools in a...

So this is a self-propelled, self-guided, lawn-mowing... robot. :dunno: http://www.husqvarna.com/uk/products/robotic-lawn-mowers/

Though it might be interesting to post up pics of unique tools to avoid marring delicate surfaces. Saw this earlier today, anyone experience care to chime in on the use of these tools (or with with similar or other interesting pics/tips/tricks)? This one was listed up as Boeing surplus...

Looking into some some drill/tap etc sets. Which of the USA tooling companies seem to have retained their quality, have a stable future/outlook, and make good quality HSS cutting tools? Short list of trade names if found from other posts: Vega Morse Widia Greenfield, OSC, Kennametal...

Has anyone tested the USA industrial brands for rockwell hardness? SK, Wright, Proto etc? Also interested in Bonney etc. I've seen a wide range for other OEMs but much of the testing is from europe or japan and focuse on local brands. For whatever reason they always seem to test snap on...

Do you use 'em? Do you prefer them to "lesser-brand" modern sockets? If so, which ones/?

Who makes the best feeler gauges out there, without paying stupid money? Are there good industrial or european versions out there worth seeking out? Do ya'll have size/shape/materials preferneces? Do they all surface rust as bad as mine :willy_nil

Been thinking about pickin up a couple of sizes, I see people like them for small fasteners for dashwork/ inside where dropping parts can be a PITA. Any other uses where the speed/convenience is worth having them? Also, they seem to be a bit more like impact sockets in terms of dimensions...

Curious to catalog some applications and favortite hex and drive sizes to tackle them 12 point fasteners. These are general buckets I've seen so far, but pleae correct me as needed. - Aerospace (various, may include spline, SAE+1/4 drive) - Special application axel nuts (larger sizes metric...

New Knipex hose clamp versions of the cobras, updated to have a locking feature. Curious to see how these would work in the real world. The video is sort of interesting. P/n is per thread title.

Cripe has one of these left, its a great deal @ $11 it opens wider and adjusts faster thank knipex wide jaws distributes force differently and about 1/4 the price you can have both :rocker: http://www.cripedistributing.com/irwin-vise-grip-4935097-gv10s-groovelock-10-smooth-jaw-plier.html

Are these generally strong enough to break loose fasteners? I'm thinking about picking one up, but slighty skeptical it might just collect dust. With single piece t-handles (hex/torx etc) I usually use them to break and spin out fasteners. I tend to like my T handles longer, so a ratcheting...
