wow, i think i have posted more on this thread in 10 min then i have since i joined lol

Wow, you dont ask for much do you? I feel very lucky, that at work we have a digital calibration checking device. I can set my torque wrench to what ever setting i need and check it on the machine. I dont need to do it often, but every once in a while, when my "calibrated elbow" second guesses...

I work for a rental fleet, every time I torque a critical bolt i kind of shudder to my self thinking, what would happen if this fell off? can you imagine the liability the company could face if a 5 ton truck lost a wheel and killed someone?

The jarring that my elbows take when i have a 65lb torque stick on my milwaukee cordless impact has taught me that lesson. (most of the time any way )

This, at work our policy is to use a 65lb torque stick to run up the lug nuts on all trucks, we then finish them the last 1/8 - 1/4 turn with the torque wrench. its a win win situation.

Can anyone hazard a guess the equivalent combination rating of the snap on air hammer would very? I. 4x or 5x

The links for the batteries look great. i wish i could find them at that price in Canada. The 2763 is awesome. I wish Milwaukee made a boot for the batteries though i have broken 2 of them from vibration caused by hammering repeatedly on really tight stuff. I now wrap my batteries in duct...

I might buy one any way and if its not what i need i can always use it at home/ camping

I was thinking of one. i have plenty of batteries, but without seeing one in use, I am not sure if it will work as well as some of the other designs.

I hear so many good things about the knucklehead, when i look at it though the head reminds me of a flashlight and kind of throws me off. I wish there were more side by side comparisons. Mabey I am over thinking this as i use my head lamp most of the time, i just ran in to one or two...

Thanks for the advice, I was considering this light, figured if it was the most expensive one it must be better right. guess not

What didn't you like about the blue point one. i was looking at the atd sabre online and i really like the design, but not sure if i want buy a light with out seeing the quality of the light it out puts

exactly this. even across the same brand every light is marketed/rated differently, if there is any marketing at all

Oh I am also thinking of getting the M12 stick light instead, as i have alot of Milwaukee tools, but am concerned that it wont work as well as a dedicated shop light.

I am in the market for a new trouble light, I am a mechanic and I use a headlamp most of the time, but there are times when a static light works better. I want some thing that works really well, i dont want to have to buy a second one. I have been looking at some models from snap on, but I am...

Oh I forgot about jet air tools. They are not the best, at least teh ones i have used. we used the term jet drill at work to describe any cheap air drill.

Jet hand tools are great. They seem to be an industrial brand here in canada. i can't comment on the pricing but i have never broken a jet socket, and there bent handle comfort grip ratchet use to be my favorite

I have a milwuakee 2763 that i have been using as my primary impact gun for about 4 months. I work mostly on medium duty trucks, and i make the milwuakee work hard for sure. My battery stopped working last week, i believe it shook it self apart the screws at the back of the battery case have...

I just pulled off the wooden top on my box and I have the same hole. I wish I lived in the us or I would have found a non Mac hutch and locker for mine already. but being 24" deep finding something cheap is hard
