New to the left, old to the right. Old as in 2008 era. Purchased new, by me. New as in 2026 era. Purchased new, by me. The outsides look the same. The chrome, the stampings, the markings. All the same. The inside is very different. Again, new to the left, old to the right.

I get that SOME of SK’s product is made in china. Not talking about that. The currently made in USA stuff is what I am talking about. Is it equal to their old USA made stuff or has it changed?

I got several trays from Westling and I’m not totally content with them. The biggest problem is that the red tones don’t match each other. I’ve been in touch with the owner he suggested simply exchanging all of the red trays for another color. But to do this I have to buy a full replacement set...

In my opinion, Hansen socket organizers are ****. I like the idea. The pegs, the labels, etc. but the execution isn't that great. The trays warp and the pegs bust. They are very fragile. If these were aluminum or titanium than these would be great. But, they are cheap and the loss isn't much...

~$60 for a 20" rail and ~$30 for an 8" rail. A few sizes in between. That's the general range. Nobody seems to be selling these at a low price point. Everyone online sells them for about the same price. Rather costly. But they are, or at least seem to be, the undisputed best thing to happen to...

Been considering one of these lately.

Hand held flashlights? To me they are kinda useless unless they have a magnetic base. A light must have the ability to be hands free to be useful. If you hands are ******* holding a light, what can you beyond look? Not much. Headlamps? I always use one not matter what it seems like. Which one...

For a cart, I have never had anything other than a literal cart. A “shelf“ that is waist high and 4 wheels. Something like this. I have only ever used a cart for 1 thing: A convenient, movable place to put tools and parts that I am using at that very moment. Not tool storage. If it’s not...

I need an alignment on my personal car and I despise bringing my car to a shop. I have seen videos of people using string and some stands and taking measurements to align the front wheels. I am considering going this route. Anyone else done this?

Back in the day, that's all we had. Battery powered lights seem to be taking over. I don't see many on the trucks these days. In fact, I can't even remember the last time I saw one. I still have a couple that I prefer. Many times, in the middle of a project, the light just straight up dies on...

1/4, 3/8 and 1/2 inch drive. How often do you use extensions in those drive sizes about 24 inches in length? I use the surprisingly often. Am I alone?

There seem to be some heavy hitters. MAC, Cornwell and Snap on use them as a source for a variety of things. Auto Parts Stores carry a lot of their stuff. But.... I see a lot of **** too. What is your opinion? I personally have some of their broken bolt extractors and a stethoscope. That's...

Some guys were doing some work on my property. An excavator was being used. Somehow they lost control and put a hole in the siding. They put something there to fill the hole. Not sure what it is. I was not here and did not see any of this. All I see is the aftermath. Anyhow, this is colorplus...

Carbide scrapers while costly, seem to be getting popular. What do you think? Are they Not worth it? Overrated? Or are they really what they are hyped up to be? Just to make sure we are on n the same page, speaking the same language… Carbon Scrapers… Carbide Scrapers…

My toilet just started leaking at the base. Time for a new wax ring. Never done this particular task before but it looks simple. So I remove the decorative caps that cover the stud and nut that hold the toilet in place. No nuts are there. What is this and how does it come apart?

I have seen 3 types: -Locking -Detents -Free floating I personally have never had a locking flex head ratchet. I have a few free floating and detent style flex head ratchets. My free floating are all Snap on, my detent ratchets are MAC and Cornwell. Honestly, flex head ratchets have always...

Well, I hope not because I just bought the set. 6mm through 32mm. I didn’t need them per se, but they look fun and interesting. What are your experiences with them?

Saw this the other day, thought it looked cool, so I bought it. Haven’t used it yet. Thoughts? Useful? A waste? Looks just like the Cornwell version with a different handle. Pretty sure VIM supplies Cornwell with this part.

I just discovered them and I think they are pretty cool!

So, I have been snooping around on eBay lately looking for deals. Finally decided to go down THAT rabbit hole. I noticed some sellers have lots and lots of brand spanking new Snap on wrench sets (other stuff too) and for a price that looks pretty good. Last night I gave into temptation and...
