Fittings, square head stuff, bending metal, and of course emergency car tool kit. Several sizes in pickup and tractor toolboxes. Diamond Horshoe brand for me! World of difference between a good, and a cheap adjustable wrench.

Tonight's project is a 1941 Farmall H, with 6v, positive ground. Doubt I'm going to use it there! Lol!

Old house we had was using bare iron wire on knob insulators all through the attic. Electrician friend said it used to be pretty common on old houses in this area, when electricity was added to exsisting homes. Said it was telephone or telegraph wire. Whole damned house was built in 1908 from...

Consider yourself lucky! Mine broke the other end off, and dumped all the shot into the bearings of a gearbox I was finishing up rebuilding. FML!

For the $, I love the Flexzilla hoses, but the HF Goodyear ones were a damn close second.

Several months back I bought a couple of these to use around the shop. About $10 each at Menards. Filled one with ATF/Acetone mix and the other with bulk brake cleaner. Been using these for about 6ish months now with great results. No leaks, no plugs, and have survived several nasty drops and...

Anyone?

Ditto! Snagged one of these off a garage sale, for $25, with good extra battery. Been using it a lot and like it!

Got both hex and round...Love the OTC bars.

I was there on Saturday. Love HJE!!!

Well...Epsteins was awesome, as always. Got the full tour, and my youngest son loved it! He's about as big of a tool junkie as I am! Got my Norseman drill bit set refilled, and picked up a bunch of stuff. Alpha pawn had some good deals...willing to deal on stuff too. Straussers looked like one...

Have had my PP2 for several years, and picked up a PP3 this weekend. Other than the onboard voltmeter, is there much else different? I work on mostly tractors, combines and Ag stuff, ranging from fairly new, on back into the 1930's, so not a lot of modern electronics to deal with....usually...

Without seeing the rest of the machine, I'm not sure, but could you adapt an air brake pot off a semi?

Nice find! I love cantilever boxes. Had a Snap-On UT22 for years, and just got a Simonsen military surplus one off Clist, for $15.

Thanks....what kind of place is it?

Going to be in KC area next few days...of course I'm going to Harry Epsteins, but I love shopping for used tools too. Any good places to look?

I'm 6'7", and my workbench is totally unusable for anyone else. Same with welding table, grinder stand, and pretty much anything else I've built! Totally agree that a slightly too low workbench is 10x worse than anything!

Use lots of dads and grandpas tools, along with many others collected over the years from old neighbors and relatives farm sales. I always like to buy tools or equipment they used often, or that I remember them having. I see initials on them and think I'm somehow keeping their memory alive by...

As much as I hate cordless angle grinders, this might be the place. If it were mine, I'd get a cheap-assed 110v generator, grinder and impact. Bargain shopping you could get all for 100-200, or new HF for not much more. Quality of equipment would need to be balanced against likelihood of theft...

Stumpf's welding might have the knob. They seem to specialize in obselete Lincoln stuff.
