    Anyone knows what size snap on hammer this is?

    I'd be worried that driver has seen this exact same hammer before and had already refused to warranty it. I wouldn't trust anyone wanting me to warranty anything for them that they should be able to do so themselves.

    Anyone knows what size snap on hammer this is?

    I'd be very leery to try to warranty anything like that for someone else.

    What tool or technique do I need to fix this air hose fitting?

    Here in podunk USA we have a hydraulic/pneumatic hose company, sort of like a Parker store for farmers, that I just take off any sort of hose of any kind, and take it to them and they make me up a new one that will work for the application, though it may not look exactly the same. I don't get...

    Disappointed with Williams Rachet…

    I've two of the 1/4" version of that ratchet, M-52EHFA, one as it comes and the other with a Snap-on RKRFC936 kit swapped into it to make it 3/8" ratchet in a 1/4" body. Both were like the OPs, with more backdrag than it seems it should, but, that's exactly how every new Snap-on ratchet I've...

    Is there a tool for cleaning corrosion from a stud type deep cell battery terminal?

    A wheel stud cleaner might be what you're looking for. I think there are other brands of these, but this is the one I've seen guys have and use. https://www.amazon.com/Steelman-60099-8-Piece-Wheel-Cleaner/dp/B0845QQT8T/?tag=atomicindus08-20 EDIT: As far as being able to clean the flat section...

    Gangly's gotta mean this kind of bird's nest. Though if I ever get one that bad I might just let the fish have it.

    Tested Husky Warranty Today . . .

    FWIW, and that might have changed since you bought that item, but the Drain cleaner you linked to only has Husky's Limited Lifetime warranty. Not all Husky tools carry the full Lifetime Warranty. It doesn't look to me like the Husky Limited Lifetime Warranty would have applied to owe you a...

    Grip Edge drivers

    Exactly. While they probably could have picked a review that didn't have a typo instead, I'd rather them post ones with typos unedited than going down the slippery slope of thinking it's OK to making any sort of changes to people's reviews and posting them. Real world reviews shouldn't need a...

    Battery impact wrench for a guy who hates power tools?

    The ft lbs per $ weighting seems pretty apropos, just as the penalty applied (not an award) for actual ft lbs vs any misleading brand's advertised torque claims is likewise factored into the final score. The whole purpose of their testing is to help people make the best performing choice for...

    Not to beat a dead horse, but I was curious to know when Marson might have moved all or some of their manufacturing to Taiwan and found there's threads here at GJ mentioning they no longer made anything in the US as far back as 2011. Example...

    I think it might have been a post of yours on here got me interested in them, so I asked about them, and they were given to me, sort of. Well, more of a trade I guess. Nothing is ever actually free. It's a buddy of ours that closed his shop probably more than 20 years ago, but still somehow...

    Project Farm tests locking pliers.

    My non-scientific real-world use experiences between NOS Petersen-Dewitt Vise Grips and Malcos is that the Malcos are quite a bit better. IIRC didn't Malco buy and operate out of the old Vise Grip plant in Dewitt? In any case it's been my experience that during their time in the building they...

    I'll be back working with the family tree company on what are usually my days off for the next few weeks or perhaps longer, at least until my brother gets back to work post-surgery. Got to looking and a lot of my tree gear and saw maintenance tools needed a refresh. LogRite 48" Cant Hook...

    I've had this long enough I had to look back through my Amazon history. I bought this HP-2 in 2014 for $27.99 (Made in Taiwan). Looks like the same kit is more than $90 now. :oops:

    Menda Wire Threader. To help feed a wire alongside all the other wires in a harness through a grommet, wire loom clip, zip tie, etc. Or what I've also used it for is to open up a wire harness by slipping this under the harness tape and cutting against the 'V' in this tool to help reduce the...

    Battery impact wrench for a guy who hates power tools?

    In my above post I focused on the compact and mid-size categories, just because that's where this thread seemed to be leaning. Personally I find the current crop of mid-torque (mid-size) impacts to be the most versatile. I haven't yet ran into a caliper bolt I couldn't get to yet with one...

    Battery impact wrench for a guy who hates power tools?

    I'm not sure how these USA model numbers will correspond to EU ones, but here are the current Torque Test Channel's Mid torque and compact impact wrench test rankings. You may find their actual tested torque standings useful, as opposed to manufacturer's claims, which are all over the place...
