    astro bur bits

    I've been using my 8pc set on stainless, iron, and mainly tube steel for about a year. Full of rust and metal dust, but still working well and minimal if any chipped teeth and I'm not gentile with them. 400 reviews, almost all positive from the link you posted. You use them on something they...

    Harbor Freight recalls jackstands that replaced the recalled jackstands.

    Has "unsubscribe" at the end of it:bounce: No worries, that would be something if they posted it here. I know other tool companies are found on here, but HF might be a bit too corporate for that.

    Astro Pneumatic pinless swivel impact sockets, anyone using?
