    Partial Purox GT-350 Outfit

    Hello, I recently was gifted a brand new purox gt-350 outfit. I know nothing about torches or welding with acetylene but the price was right. The box was open with no list of contents, just the warranty cards. I looked it up online and I think it is complete, but none of the torch parts appear...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Hello, A few weeks ago I posted in this thread looking for info on a charles parker no. H. I picked it up today for $60 CAD. It seems to be in pretty good shape although I think the handle is not original because it looks a little crude and appears to be significantly smaller than the hole it...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Hello, I've been in communication with a seller regarding a charles parker model H. I can't find any info on it, I was looking at the info page at http://scuttle.dayid.org/wiki/index.php/Charles_Parker_Vise but all of the models are numerical, not alphabetical. I think it has quick release due...

    Kobalt workbench

    I got one a while ago. It's pretty good for the price. As mentioned, you cannot sit at it. From what I can tell, it is also difficult to mount a vise to due to where the front beam is locates in relation to the table top. The drawer bottoms on the non-stainless version are hardboard, I...

    HW Model K

    Hello, I just picked up this jack today. I've been hunting a Hein Werner for a while after discovering them on this site. I missed out on a minty o boy a few months ago so I was not going to make the same mistake again. This thing is a beast, it was so heavy that I could barely put it in the...

    My new technician grade tools.

    I just got the 13 piece SK metric wrench set and the 47 piece 3/8 metric and sae socket set. They are very nice, a huge upgrade over mastercraft or craftsman. Another thing I like about SK is that they are a little under the radar and easy to get deals on compared to snappy. If you haven't got...

    Craftsman Canada Resin Handles

    Hello, I was at the mall today, my friend was haggling over some jewelry so I went to Sears to check out their tool selection. The hardware dept was pretty lame to be honest, lots of empty floor space with a few lawn mowers, table saws but obviously had seen better days. I was looking at their...

    Tool Chest Bottom Door Detent

    The date stamp on the bottom right of the bottom cabinet is stamped 5/79 and the PO said his wife got it for him in October 1979. I got the door ease and am using it to lubricate the slides. It's pretty messy and hard to apply. I've used 2/3rs of a 1.6 oz stick just on the top alone but I think...

    Tool Chest Bottom Door Detent

    Hello, This is my first time posting, I've been lurking for a bit. A few weeks ago I picked up a vintage Proto tool chest for $400 off kijiji. I ordered some door ease to lubricate the slides and just received it last night. I cleaned and lubricated the slides on the top cabinet, but I'm stuck...
