    Which Pass Thru/Go Through Sockets/Ratchets Swap/Interchange?

    Added 12 Aug 24: The main point of this thread is if you need to replace/add something and you cannot get it from the brand you have, you might find it under another brand. Also there might be NOS on Ebay or Cripe Distributing. An example: last year I needed to replace Craftsman (Sears) 3/8...

    Current Bench Vise Brands in the US and/or Canada

    Actual list begins at Post #2, but some terms are defined below. Common Asian is used to designate Chinese, Taiwanese, and/or maybe Indian which, as far as I can tell, are either identical or quite similar to what I typically see at: HF HD (except for the quick release) Lowe's TSC and/or...
