Boss said it had to go and anyone could have it. So I took it. Nice 6in Dayton bench grinder. Will be nice in my home shop once we get a garage.

So far I'm at book time so just need to get faster. I spend more time trying to find stuff than I do working on the cars themself. Once I'm fimiliar with the shop I will be able to start beating book time. I prefer sink or swim, I didn't sign up to be a lube tech.

Williams pre-1984 sell out to Snap Off. Sold by Car Quest and such

Just wanted to updated. Started my first full day today. First job was a used car inspection while I had my ID set up in the RO system after that I got a A1 service TL (I'm Jag/Rover but I won't turn down work reguardless), a LR3 with an intermitting a/c problem and started a LR4 with a voltage...

Bitter sweet evening went to announce to my grandmother that my wife and I are expecting our first child but I also wanted to clean out my grandfathers workshop before the vultures (family) beat me too it as they did with my great grandfather's. Here's what I took, lots of good US made tools, a...

I know I was kidding, its just every thread on GJ has to have someone say they got it for blah blah off craigslist.............. Its a beautiful box, after you work it a few weeks let us know how it holds up being white. I would love to upgrade to a white Master box.

Should watched craigslist you could have saved big $$$$$.................. There I beat the dipshits to the punch on saying it. In seriousness very very nice box! I love the white. Hope you enjoy it for many moons to come!

Its $399, run away. Everyone is right best cheap box is Harbor Freight.

Rather new to the brand. My father has always raved about their tools whish helped my decision to purchase this set this weekend.

I have the reversible set I got in the late 90's for Christmas. Been underwater twice (Ivan and Katrina) but still are going strong.

I was at Lowes last night and took a peak at Kobalt. Very nice sockets for the $$$. Also went by Sears, CM really has gone to ****. It ashame because my first CM tools were excellent, only thing I never liked were the non-polished wrenches. Now their sockets look worst than Harbor Freights...

I already have impact deep from SO and Autocrap shallow. The advice from my master tech was to buy chrome in 6/12 point but only a few sizes that I will see. Land Rover LOVES over sized drivetrain/suspension components and I have run into this in the past not having big enough sockets/wrenches...

I should add I need the stuff soon so buying used isn't an option. I've already been searching through the Pawn Shops. I am a paid wrench so I will use often and I would use it as a relationship builder with the SO driver at my new job. Similar thing I'm doing with my Matco flex wrench purchase.

Let me first say I LOVE my SO sockets and ratchets, I have always thought they were worth every penny. But I'm needing to pick up some 1/2 sockets, extensions, a ratchet and universai joint. What I need from SO will run about $600 total, if I go with GW its $126. Is their really that big of...

I have found HF a invaluable source of affordable tools for the new technician. I have SO/S&K for my hand tools but stuff like seal pullers, slide hammers, race setters, gloves, suspension tools and other odds and ends I don't need often. I will eventually replace these items with truck tools...

If we have learned anything from craigslist ask at least 50% over list..........

It's a two sided sword but what you say is true.
