    Need help choosing a backpack blower and chainsaw

    Hard to go wrong with Husqvarna or Stihl. Bought a Stihl FS110 Weedeater over the summer and have no complaints. Bought a Husqvarna 150BT backack blower from Northern tool for $250 after coupon because I couldnt justify spending twice that on a Stihl. Its great. Actually makes me look...

    Harbor Freight all-stars

    The Blue mechanics gloves are a win for $3.89. The price/quality ratio is on point. They fit well, are perfect for most jobs, last decently long, and are cheap enough that I'm not upset when I lose one out of the truck or off the 4 wheeler.

    Looking for small but large adjustable wrenches, good quality is a must.

    Thats a pretty good idea. I'd do it with HF pliers before I would with Channellock but I might try this. Like you said, a 1 1/2'' nut under a sink and you need wide jaws but short handles.

    Let's see your toolbox.

    Thanks! It weighs somewhere around 350 lbs with the vise on it. I decided to go big or go home and I'm glad I did. I havent used it much yet but its sturdy enough that it wont budge when I strap something down in the vise or hammer away on the top.

    Recommend me a leaf blower/vacuum

    x2 on the cost. I go through a good bit of 2-cycle gas and dont really want to pay the $8/quart that this sells for most places. I've found a gas station that sells Ethanol Free 93 octane which is what Stihl recommends. Its $3.89/gallon and after mixing in the oil ($1.29/bottle) I'm looking...

    Irwin 5" multi-purpose vise, Lowes

    I bought one of them from Home Depot a month ago for $23 when they were clearancing them out. Ive bolted it down but havent really tested it much. It seems like a pretty good budget vise. Very greasy out of the box though

    Response to my Letter to Sears about USA made tools

    Get ready for tools made in the Indonesia, Vietnam, and Pakistan! Its already happening too. I bought a 50lb box of 16 penny nails and it said Made in Vietnam! Guess the Chinese labor was too expensive :lol:

    Why I buy from Harbor Freight - No bashing!

    I recently bought two first aid kits from HF for $11.99 each. Label said Assembled in USA. Pretty good value for the money and compact enough to stick anywhere. Also got a 50 pack of dust masks for $5.99 made in China There are good values to be found at HF. I doubt I will find US made dust...

    I got one of those a month ago and it is awesome! I looked other brands and more expensive models but the 150bt was the best value out there. With the $50 off $250 coupon Northern Tool mails out I got it for $250. A similar Stihl I looked at was north of $450 and I have yet to find a job the...

    This counts as a tool, right? Assembled it and it is great! Most powerful blower I've used. If you are in the market for a blower, I'd definitely recommend spending a little more and getting this one. Used a $50 off $250 coupon at Northern tool and paid $267 after tax. Next to its...
