    Local Sears closing-how do the liquidation sales run?

    yep, the local Sears in my town closed two years ago. Other stores are slowly following suit. It's just a shame we've had to watch Craftsman die a slow painful death along with it.

    What is the first tool or tools you bought from the tool truck?

    I made my first tool truck purchase while attending auto tech school circa 2007; Snap-On impact wrench (MG725), 3/8" dr. semideep metric socket set (212FSMSY), Snap-On dual-80 ratchet (FX80), and a 1/2" dr. click-type torque wrench (QD3R150). With the student discount, it was money very well spent.

    I just received a set of Ko-ken Zeal 3/8" dr. hex bit sockets and I'm considering placing an order for the 3/8" dr. torx bit socket set as well. I'd love to see the independent test results if they were ever published!

    Made use of the Amazon Tekton $15 off $50 deal to pick up the socket rails (Ernst USA made), the long 1/2" dr. ratchet (Taiwan), and the tube bending mandrel. The Torin magnetic quarter twist socket rails were purchased at my local Lowes and the long metric combo wrenches are from Harbor...

    Tools of Japan

    I was considering placing an order with Frankstools and I could have sworn he had 15% or it might have been more off all his stuff just yesterday. I read on the website it was going to be through the end of the month. Now it is down to 10% off. Anybody know why?

    Got some great deals on MAC tools at a local auction today. Everything is brand new too. 1/2" dr. air ratchet for $100. $374.99 of the truck or $289.99 for the equivalent Proto version (J150RSH). I kind of wish it was the 3/8" dr. version, but at the price I paid, I really can't...
