Looks like an electric toothbrush that will accept jigsaw blades. No surprise that you are disappointed. Senor Bezos will give you your $ back

Please count me in too! I've reached the point where even I am working on stuff that pretty requires decent diagnostic equipment. This one looks well suited to me needs. If not a winner this may well be what I write a check for. Fingers crossed. EDIT: What is the most powerful word in advertising?

Lined worm drive clamps apply the grip more evenly and won't tear up the hose. https://www.idealtridon.com/lined-clamps-654.html

I'll go out on a limb and speculate that the interest rate for that loan borders;) on usary so the net cost for the Snappy chair is indeed VERY dear. Instant gratification always carries a price. Perhaps you could start up a juice loan business at your shop. Sounds like a few are ripe for...

Not a fan of gimmick tools myself but these are useful and I admit to having one. The same principle applied to a better built(material)tool would be a winner.

And likely a new drier, perhaps exp valve too. Recommend you install some inline filter to catch debris from the old comp.

I don't think S-K was ever anything special. Good? Yes, special, or best.... Some are nostalgic for it, ala Craftsman but clearly not enough to sustain USA manufacturing. H-D has brand recognition like few others, not to be compared with even Snappy. Sad for H-D that that the dinosaurs that buy...

A great tool store near me has close ties to the S-K company and is worth a visit by anyone nearby or even as a destination for Chicago visitors if you appreciate a well stocked tool store that caters to professionals. https://www.berlandstools.com/history

Scrolling through modes (mostly un-needed by me) is a hard no, esp at the price. Me thinks the market will limited to flashlight geeks. If he has been doing this for quite a while and still no capital for the next project that speaks volumes. Good luck to your pal but I won't be buying or...

A lot of what you blame on China is merely them answering a demand(previously filled by Japan) for cheap goods, and US manufacturing's labor force largely pricing themselves out of the market.

Yeah, so...

Does Lexus even offer anything with a manual transmission? Probably not given the clutch installation procedure illustrated here

Interesting that you should ask. He is correct in that the customer proofs the job so they are ultimately responsible. To halt or interrupt a job mid process is a huge PITA.* Unless a very long run (not his specialty)much of the cost is amortized before ink hits the paper. A pressman's job is...

As printing was an associated business to my own I had a relationship with a local printer to offer printing for my own clients. Once while hanging around his shop and mezmerized by the presses I noticed a typo on a job coming off the press and pointed it out. I was shushed with him pointing out...

Same ones here. They've unintentionally taken the(back half) weight of a loaded contractors van.

Late to the party here and not much to offer but paraphrase what's already been said and add what I've learned the hard way. Like has been said SS work hardens, fast. PRESSURE, SHARP bits* and lube are your friends. Watch the chip, if it is curling out you've got the right combination. If...

I'll take it.;)

A friend had a mechanic's specialty tool business, mostly sold on the white and red tool trucks. Most everything was done in Asia, to his specification. "to his specification" being the operative phrase. They (Asian makers) will make something as good or shoddy as you are willing to pay for...
