    Junkyard/mobile tool bags/backpacks

    I use the bag from Griots Garage. It is pretty stout and has lots of different dividers for organization. It lives in daily driver for roadside emergencies plus the occasional u pull it adventure.

    Dewalt chargers

    This is why I stick with one battery platform and use adapters when I stray.

    Cordless mini Chainsaw that does not leak oil?

    I had the Ryobi for a couple of years. Yeah, it leaked but the fill tube stuck out past the saw body making it easy to drain. I recently upgraded to the Dewalt when HD had them on clearance . It is a much better saw, but is more difficult to drain. So far, I have been letting it leak. Anyone...

    Should I switch to Oxy-Propane?

    I have my grandfathers oxy-propane setup. It works fine but I don’t use it that often and I have not noticed a high oxygen usage. I’ve had the propane tank filled but not the oxygen tank and my grandfather passed in 1989. i wonder if it is out of date…

    I’d rather have the shop space and go over the sewer line. My attached garage was built over the line. Building inspector made the builder sleeve the line at the footer.

    What kind of tools have you found in the road??

    Road finds have been rather scarce of late for me but I found these yesterday. The tape is usable but the Allen keys will go in the scrap bucket.

    Drill bit cabinet

    Do your Huot boxes have full extension slides? If my Vevor did, I would be sooo pleased with it.

    Drill bit cabinet

    The slides on mine own pretty well (except for the full length issue) but I get what you are saying about the potential for putting things back in the wrong slot. I intend to use the cabinet to store extra new or sharpened bits. An index will be used for everyday.

    Drill bit cabinet

    And a couple of pics showing the slides and how far the drawers open Oh, and I forgot to mention these cabinets come labeled and they have an extra set of blank labels. The labels that are attached peal off easily leaving no residue. I had hoped this was the case as I knew I would be relabeling...

    Drill bit cabinet

    Here’s one of the reasons why I wanted this cabinet. I inherited it and the bits aren’t good plus it doesn’t cover all sizes.

    Drill bit cabinet

    Here’s some pics. The drawers are all the same size and will hold a 1” bit. I added the foam pieces to stop the bits from sliding to the back of the drawer. These were cut from the packing material included.

    Drill bit cabinet

    It is the Vevor. It was $45.71 but is now selling for $51. Here’s a link https://a.co/d/eQNSaAA Very heavy and solid, especially considering the price. It was boxed well for shipping and arrrived in great shape despite the box being beat up.

    Drill bit cabinet

    I have wanted one of these for years since learning about them here but never could justify the expense until last weekend. I won a local auction with several drill indexes recently plus I got an Amazon gift card from work that was burning a hole in my pocket. So it arrived Wednesday and I...

    Show off your.... Carlyle Tools!!!

    Yes. I saw them on the promotional Carlyle tool truck (trailer) last week. It pained me to say it, but they seemed first rate to me and I figure they will stay nicer than the blue and yellow when subjected to grease and grime. I few have a couple of the blue and yellow ratchet and really, really...

    So the new Milwaukee M18 batteries are bigger (and don't fit our application anymore)

    Maybe another brand battery with a Milwaukee adapter? Besides Ridgid tools, I run ryobi, dewalt, and even a kids ride on jeep with Ridgid batteries.

    Screw/hardware organizers that won't bankrupt me?

    Many years ago I wanted a couple of the upper bins used at HD and visited a store near me that was relocating. $50 per vertical stack Is what the man in charge wanted so I bought all of them. 16 stacks, $800. Oh, and then he tells me I get all of the remaining hardware. How does this relate to...

    Deepwell E Torx sockets. What are they for?

    I had to get one when someone broke the ignition switch trying to steal my 1999 2 door Tahoe. 1999 was the last year of the 2 door and the first year they put a chip in the ignition switch.
