    Cman comfort grip screwdrivers?

    What do you guys think of these screwdrivers? Are they a major step up from standard Craftsman hard handle screwdrivers? I'm trying to replace a stolen tool box/set that I use away from the house. These seem like a good deal, but If they are not much better then a standard Cman driver then...

    Lube for Proto Big Dawgs

    Low Profile ratchet

    I finally realized how handy the Craftsman low profile ratchets are today. I was changing the spark plugs on my Explorer and neither the standard raised panel Cman nor my Proto 3/8" drive would fit. The low pro's are not much thinner, but it was enought to get in there. I also realized I need...

    Found a Maglite, need some help

    I found a 3 D-cell battery Maglite. It looks like the previous owner left the batteries in it too long and they exploded. Now The endcap, spring and about half of the actual tube that holds the batteries is covered in a white powdery substance. I'm guessing that this corrosion is preventing...

    Old Craftsman rachett
