Greetings, I inherited my grandfather's porter cable 504 belt sander. I understand this is similar to the porter cable A3. I got to use it for about 5 minutes before the switch died. The original 801851 switch isn't made anymore. I've been searching the internet for an alternative. I see porter...

I have a black on black Snap-on KTL1022 similar to the stock Snap-On picture. I bought it used for ~2k. I want a top box for it, but buying new from Snap-On isn't in the budget as it'd be over 2x what I paid for the bottom toolbox. I can't find a lot of used top chests. HFT's blacked out US...

I‘m doing fuel pumps on an OBS f250. Some DA put a brake line immediately under one of the bed bolts. This one was already crowded and difficult to get to. No chance of a socket getting on the nut, but could get the box end of a Proto ASD wrench on it. It’s 12 point of course, but it should be...

Greetings, I am looking for a Snap on F50CSA 3/8" drive handle with the female 3/8 square end. I'd like in good condition or better with no owner marks. Stock image of what I'm looking for attached. If you have one for a reasonable price let me know!

I recently ordered some 1/4 wobble extensions from zero. Two of the three have been canceled and out of stock. I looked for an alternative site and no one has them. I looked at the Williams catalog and the part numbers have changed and they no longer have the made in USA logo under them. M-206...

I'm thinking of buying some Proto wobble extensions. Proto's website is next-level awful, so I can't find any real details about them or even some high enough resolution pictures to tell 100% if they are plain wobble or wobble fix/wobble plus. Does anyone have them that can comment on what style...

Open letter to multimeter manufacturers: Hopefully there are employees that work for the multimeter companies that read these forums that are in a position to influence some change. I penned this letter after searching just about every brand of clamp meter and cannot find a single one that...

Hi all. I have been working on some issues in my crawlspace and there is a bunch of mounds of dirt that is making it really difficult to work. I've started trying to dig the mounds out and that's a tough job. Soil is a dry hard type that doesn't dig easily, so I'm just beating myself up. I want...

Hi all, I'm building a travel tool kit. Size is a consideration, so I don't want to carry individual screwdrivers in all the sizes and styles I want. I'm looking for a high quality interchangeable bit set that work with 1/4" hex bit or power bit holders. I've looked at the Wera Kraftform...

I am wanting to build a travel box or road box that's going to fit in a pelican 1510 case so it's really portable and can fly if necessary. I would typically want to carry shallow and deep sockets in SAE and MM, but for space and weight considerations, I'd like to use semi-deep's to only have to...

I'm a die hard Fluke fan. I have a 23, and 87v that I absolutely love, so I decided to treat myself to a 378 FC... and I just returned it. I was super excited to get it on special for black friday, but when I tried the Bluetooth I could barely get 10' away from the meter before it lost...

In Florida a 10' gator crawled under a Snap-On truck and shook it from underneath. I presume he was trying to get the driver's attention to look at the monthly flyer to find the latest BOGO! link to the news story if you're interested...

I've been putting together a small truck toolkit and trying to use US made tools as much as possible, but trying to do it on the cheap since it's a truck kit. Found some US made husky screwdrivers at home depot and thought they'd be perfect. Didn't even think about the acetate handles. I have a...

I have a husky socket set in a blow molded case. case is falling apart and some of the sockets are junk and don't have detents. I like this setup though because the case fits neatly behind the backseat of my truck. I want to put together a kit in a similar footprint. Milwaukee makes a set that's...

I am looking for a special application tool. I work on some old rusty **** sometimes. It's often necessary to take a cutoff wheel and make a slit in the top of a bolt that's completely rounded, or something like a carriage bolt that's spinning freely in rotten wood. I need what I can only...

I know there are chrome locking extensions with a ball that locks into place. There are also impact locking extensions that have a short pin I think intended to be used with sockets that have a hole in it. That pin on something like a SK locking impact extension will retain normal chrome...

I'm doing a brake job on my truck and one of the caliper piston boots is torn. I got a new dust boot and used a blunt punch to lightly tap around the edge to seat the new boot. despite me being careful, some of the rubber on the top of the part that's tapped into place is damaged. What tool(s)...

Snap On has their wrench sets on special this month and I'm planning on getting a set. I just have craftsman RP wrenches mainly, so even the regular snap on wrenches will be longer. I looked at the measurements of the long wrenches and a 10mm is 7.3 inches long...that's a loooong 10mm. that got...

Greetings everyone. I just ordered a SK 45174 stubby 3/8" ratchet off eBay. I'm thinking about putting a DT80 kit in it. I've searched GJ and found threads when they first came out that indicated that overall it was a good improvement, but that the back drag was more with the DT80 internals. I...

Snap-On shipping charge change? I just went to Snap On's website to order a ratchet and noticed that it's no longer free shipping on orders under $500, but it's free shipping on orders over $199. Shipping charge on a ratchet was $20! Needless to say I didn't place the order. What gives! This is...
