I am starting to think about what to sell off in anticipation of downsizing. I have several decisions, my first is which grinder to Keep? The 3/4 hp block missing one guard end cap with light, 1/2 hp block light use (very pretty) or 1/3 hp Baldor with two lighted eye guards, little use fairly...

New, unused M28 Battery. The military uses the M28 Battery for blood warmers for combat wounds. With the down size of the mission in Afghanistan these were not needed. Made for GE Healthcare, fits all Milwaukee M28 tools. It even has the M28 markings and the charge indicator. A sample has...

SOLD Shipped for 38.00. This IS NOT a Chinese copy, genuine Military issue. 1,200 feet, O.D. Green. Cleared with management to take as this was going to the burn pit, new and unissued. Items like this are not worth the cost of freight for units to ship home so they destroy it in place...

I have a M28, 28 volt battery that I will give away to a randomly chosen poster to this thread. I’ll chose in a week or so. No cost, I’ll ship it to you gratis. This battery appears to be new, made for a specialty purpose medical device. It is 28 Volt and has the same size, connections...

Currently I have two oil hot dog compressors with an 11 gallon pressure tank plumbed in. It works but occationally I have to wait for the compressors to catch up. I am looking to upgrade to a 60 gallonb compressor, 5 hp. Most of the big box variants are very similar in the 600 - 800 range...

Are there many applications for a DIYer for one of these? Such as http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00BNAMEEQ/?tag=atomicindus08-20

I have a few 4” diameter ceramic magnets and I thought I can mount the magnets to the wall and stick air tools to them. I know air tools shells are aluminum, titanium and plastic but the components inside should contain enough ferric material to stick to the magnets. What do you think?/how to...

I have a chance to get a 3/8 IT 2155 which is good for 250 pounds. This got me to thinking do I need a 1/2 impact for much of anything for regular auto maintenance? The 3/8 is so much lighter. Maybe I am just late to the party and 3/8 is the standard but most often at the tire places I see IR...

Well to keep the family peace I’ve told the wife I’ll take my brother in laws Armstrong ¾ drive socket set. Its complete with SAE and metric, deep and standard sockets, I don’t know the socket count. Probably retails over 2K. It will settle an outstanding 600.00 debt. As a homeowner with no...

The shop seems to tear thru these. It could be that they were older units and the very fine dust (< 5 Microns) is just eating them up after a long service. The ones I have seen are made in USA, so I presume these are early 90's or earlier before IR shipped production off shore. The 231s seem...

The shop here was trashing a Makita 7” angle grinder http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I6QWQM/?tag=atomicindus08-20 because it came from Europe and was wired for 220 (the European standard household current) and our generators here are wired for 120 volt. While I could use this at home if I run a...

I’m closing in on 50 and I have nearly 30 years of tools with many duplicates of equal quality. I’m deployed and I still can’t resist a serviceable screw driver or vice grip that is in the scrap pile. Perhaps I am a tool hoarder… At a certain point you have to be honest with yourself though...
