Me too, sae wrenches over metric wrenches. Sae sockets in front of metric sockets.

So one could conclude after 5 pages of this, that "the point" is: there's a hell of a lot of sae fasteners around to deal with. and there's a good likelihood that you will need to turn one some time. Unless your job is to work on something specific and completely metric, and you don't ever...

The junkie is the only one I watch regularly. The others are too loaded with nonsense, rambling, and are not really entertaining. Dow I watch a little bit, but the junkie is entertaining.

I have a set at work, made in China, ATD or ATN, something like that. Critical for a few machines we have here. Without them it means making a tool. Awesome to have, even if it's once in a while use. These are very thin, so not useful for breaking anything loose that are very tight.

Usually at least 10% off for anything other than the smallest items.

My current daily use favorites are the Pittsburgh Pro 1/4" standard length and the Snap On THLL72(?) super long length. The really long snap on ratchets seem ridiculous, until you use one in an awkward spot, and all that leverage just brings a smile to your face!!

The 56" and 72" that HF has on display. Same as the latches on my 5 drawer cart. They ****, IMO. Some people like them though.

Keep looking on Craigslist, or any social media classifieds. You will find a quality used box if you keep looking carefully. I was trying to find an inexpensive roll cab for a couple months. I didn't want to go with a HF because I hate the drawer latches. Ended up with an older Matco double bank...

That does have a "lighter duty" look to it than the orange one i had years ago. I won't tell you mine was a good product though. I bought it when I absolutely needed it, and it ended up having the post (thing that you press with?) welded crooked out of the box. I still got done what I needed...

Great wrenches, unfortunate that they refuse to make a long pattern version though. Regardless that seems to be the part of their product line that really stands out. Even my local dealer has probably 75% combination wrenches / 25% 1/4" thru 3/4" drive sockets ratchets and accessories. Seems to...

We raced out of my home shop for 5 years. Basically building a freshened up car from bare chassis each year. All work done with craftsman or similar tools. You could build, maintain, adjust and repair any decent hand assembled race car with HF tools, no problem. Five years later I am upgrading...

How long is the run? If you already have the stuff and can't return it, use it. If not, maybe just go with the proper wire ( probably 6awg) and a 50A breaker for your 50A outlet. When I built my shop we put in 3 50A Circuits. Can plug just about any welder with a plug, anywhere I want. Has...

All of the YouTube channels I subscribe to are based around something mechanical. My favorite are both informative on the applicable subject, and entertaining in some way. All are produced to a pretty good level. I do not care at all for the logos and graphics, just content. Some of them are...

One of the things that turns me off of someone's videos is a lack of experience or knowledge of anything other than the product they are reviewing right then. This is not to pick on a brand!! But let's say for example, a guy reviewing a tekton wrench set. Said reviewer claims that this is a...

In this case, it's three tiny holes in a concrete floor. Three. Could have drilled the holes faster than it takes to read this whole thread. Would cost (me) as much in gas to go buy a hammer drill, as it would to buy a new tapcon bit, should there prove to be an issue rotary drilling three tiny...

You don't need a hammer drill. You don't need a special holder or chuck. Just drill the holes!

I don't own many, but I just used one yesterday. Bit socket was too short and I don't own long ones. Key was long enough, but couldn't turn it without pliers. T handle was just right! For reference, was replacing a tilt steering assembly on a John Deere tractor.

I have the Astro. Have used it on a couple 3/4 ton trucks, and some utility vehicles. Works great, no issues or wear thus far. I'm sure it would be more than adequate for small passenger vehicles.

And to answer the original question, I'd take a new Mac Tech series over a Snap-On KRA. I strongly dislike lock-n-roll.
