So, one guy demanding warranty on free stuff and other demanding the original box on free stuff. I'm embarrassed to be a member here. The whole penny thing is cheesy. HD has a strange way of managing stuff that's no longer for sale by changing the price to a penny. It's one thing to get...

Anyone else found the cheap router?

The J1208SCP set only has 2 Philips. How often does anyone really use a blade screwdriver for turning screws ? I have lots of old craftsman screwdrivers that get used for "non screw" tasks. I try to only spend real money on Philips screwdrivers.

Nut drivers are like a deep socket that keeps the nut at the end of the socket (hence the name). Very handy for assembly work. A lot handier than a "screwdriver handle" with a deep socket on the end.

So if i go slower, can I use more weight?

Yep, that would be faster, I was checking the squareness of the cut in both directions, so I just let it go.

I set it up more permanently tonight, squared it up and cut a piece of 1/8" thick 1-1/4" angle iron. It zipped through the vertical part, then took like 15 min to get through the 1-1/4" flat part. I would have never bought it. I thought one of my relatives had made it, but I think it's...

buy 12's, punch a hole at 10 and break the excess off

Digging up an old thread.... I found one of these in my great grandfather's barn. Here's the state I found it in: These were sold as DIY kits in the late 60's though sometime in the 80's. In 1968 the kits sold for $18.95. The kit came a raw castings, the owner had to drill every hole and...

Fluid-film description says it is lanolin based.

My dad gave me that grinder 3 years ago. I've used it a lot. No issues with the motor or speed control. The stone and the wire wheel are mediocre quality. The wire wheel wore out quickly. My only real complaint is the tool rests are attached to the wheel guards and are not as sturdy as I'd...

Get a 1/4" hex drill chuck. It will hold your hole saws and anything else you want to put in you 1/4 impact gun.

Split tip,driver is a screw starter. Slide the handle down to hold a screw while starting The ATD tool In the upper right is an oil filter wrench The adjustable circle cutter can be used in wood that is not too thick. Kind of a poor man's whole saw, but it works in a pinch. Works best in a...

Seems like astro pneumatic has a new one that is over 500 rpm. Read about it here on in an email from them I'm assuming OP in not using a traditional screw gun due to space constraints. A right angle drill might have enough clearance.

Thanks, I have all the original documentation if you need it.

Close, same engine...It a 59 Austin-Healey Sprite.

Agreed, I have (and still do) used the red/blue Craftsman for ever. Some of mine are at least 30 years old. The Philips do wear out, and the new ones are not as good as the old ones. I also have Craftsman Pro (read and black made by SK), Wiha (regular and small precision), Mac, and a few...
