    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    The HF Doyle "premium flaring kit" 58981 is a major pass. It is 45 degrees for plumbing, not inexpensive and includes a tubing cutter and chamfering tool which you may already have. About the flaring part: the vice/tube bar has a very nice fit and finish, it never slipped and it didn't crush...

    Tools of Japan

    Can someone help me find a specific tool? I remember seeing it browsing Japan sourced tools and dismissing it, now I feel I really want it. It is a screwdriver shape/sized tool for removing the foil/gasket seal from the top of fluid bottles such as oil jugs, washer fluid bottles etc. I'm...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    I’m not going to pretend I know plumbing. I bought that wrench years ago to tighten something gigantic and never used it afterward, never put much stress into it, it just had to be big to serve that purpose. It then sat in a drawer for years. I leaned into it recently with all my strength and...

    The Harbor Freight PASS/FAIL Thread...

    Channel lock type pipe wrench: fail I have had these for years, when in the middle of a big DIY project the wrench bent and jumped locks. It is difficult to see in the pictures but the hinge is still engaged and the locks are bound on top of each other. Also of interest is the...

    Icon Torque Wrench Problem, or not?

    I bought the split beam icon 57923 and the 59108 because of the big sale and I dislike twisting torque wrench handles with hard to read numbers. Those are the 1/2 and 3/8 ICON split beam torque wrenches, they have a slight flex head and are non reversible. Feeling guilty about buying things I...

    New Icon Bigger Meme Tool

    If this kit does well I suspect its the power of marketing and not merit. I don't understand dropping the bit ratchet and dropping the "T" setup. The 1/4 driver handle is large for a compact kit. Why flex head AND 1/4 universal drive adaptor? Why 3" ish 1/4 extension, 3" ish 1/4 bit extension...

    Handheld tools with rings or holes in them for small tool set?

    I was gifted one of these : Keychain driver The bits are very stubby but all store in the body, the keychain retains them and a key or knife can be used to twist with more torque. Not something easy to use but very compact and handy to have when you don’t have access to drivers. I replaced...
