That's funny, I was just talking to my Matco dealer. I saw a new ratchet/serpentine set on the truck and I'm like oh, did gearwrench make a new set? He's says no, it's Astro. I'm holding my phone and look it up like, look, Astro doesn't make serpentine sets. He said they make multiple set...

Use the 3/8" set basically every day for the last couple years. No issues yet. My 1/2" Matco set "feel" nicer now, but are also floppier than flap jacks

Don't be surprised by the answers in this thread. Same result each times it pops up 25% People who will only own Mitutoyo saying to buy Mitutoyo because everything under the price range is the same trash 25% People who own the cheapies agreeing because it means their $15 pair work the same as...

Eastwood guns are built by the lowest bidder and they've used various sources throughout the years. One is never the same as the next it seems. I swore off touching anything eastwood that is a complex tool that requires tolerances. Their other paint and prep stuff and consumables are great

Seems like DCF891 will be 612 ft/lbs tightening The DCF894 is like 5 years I think old? No word on when in 2022, but if they were on the UK website already then you'd think not like late 2022

Pretty simple solution to painfully in-depth videos, don't watch them and move on. Doesn't make sense to have strongly held opinions about that. And the answer as to why someone doesn't spend thousands of dollars of their own money to build and test tools and equipment, and days of their time...

That's just silly. Tradesman surely have more access and space than the average mechanic when working on bolts, any of those situations a square drive ratchet would be 10X more useful.

This. It seems cool, and neat that they are thinking outside of the box when it comes to such a traditional tool to make it their own. But anything you need to turn, in a tight area, hard to improve on a circle. They are cool until you have them next to you and it's all you're using, then...

I still find them on dusty racks at the local material supply place, but usually odd sizes and shapes

I know I've seen TTC on here, but also know he doesn't post any threads. Wanted to post this here so we can recommend additional ball joint presses for them to ruin USA made OTC please!

TorqueTestChannel they're like Real Tool Reviews was but without explaining to me how an air fitting or a forward/reverse selector switch works for 50% of every video. With the bonus of Harbor Freight not winning every match up somehow.

Any chance for another BOGO thread now that you have new lights? *crosses fingers*

Well looks like it IS more powerful, but not by a mile <- link

I've found having a welder at the ready can fix 75% of oh **** moments

How do you overset a pop rivet? The stem pops off when the rivet is set

The AP one will do 1/4", so it's a whole other animal as that takes a lot more force. We've been using that PR14 for like 5 years without servicing it. If it was $200 to replace, I think we'd get the same damn one. None of those or that style will do huck in my experience tho

Re: Big news? Lowes set to launch new power tool brand to beat Milwaukee & Dewault: F This. Exactly what I assumed they were doing. 20% more cells ≠ 20% more performance in most cases

Re: Big news? Lowes set to launch new power tool brand to beat Milwaukee & Dewault: F Oh geez, you're right. That's were they are getting it. 1st feature on the 12Ah battery: "20% more power than 20-volt battery" They can't be that dense, right?
