I was doing some driveshaft work this week and needed some impact hex and torx sockets. I had to borrow the torx and had to make due with an allen key set (not fun). I haven't bought any impact in a while, but back a 5yrs or so ago Sunex was considered a pretty good option, but now I understand...

Wonder if anyone has any thoughts on this 20 ton shop press? (see https://www.fleetfarm.com/detail/big-red-20-ton-hydraulic-shop-press/0000000360652) Looks to be a big red Model No : TY20004, but I'm not finding much information on it. Not sure if it was maybe made specifically for fleet farm...

Looks like Bendpak is running a 1 day 20% sale tomorrow (Feb 20, 2026) on the Quickjack web page. Might be useful if anyone was looking to get one or buy a 2nd set of lifts.

So looking around on ebay I have noticed Craftsman Professional wrenches have pretty good resale value. I have metric and SAE. They are my best combo wrenches currently, but I'm seriously considering selling my metric (8 to 24mm) and SAE (1/4 to 1-1/16) to fund an upgrade to Proto (or Wright?)...

After work yesterday I stopped by Sears to pick up a Craftsman 1/4" universal joint. I have a snow blower repair that would be easier with the universal although not absolutely required. I have a fair amount of USA craftsman, but I'm not above buying a Chinese tool from time to time. For hand...

I do not have any pneumatic impact wrenches or sockets yet and am trying to plan out which I am going to purchase. I do have a powermate 6hp 21gal air compressor (6CFM at 90psi, I think that is correct). I'm hoping I can plan this out so I only have to buy once and cry once. Im pretty sure I'm...

Some years ago i picked up a US general tool cart. I filled it up with my US craftsman tools of the time. The craftsman worked well for me, but eventually I upgraded to mostly snap on tools. As I started to pack up the craftsman for storage and putting all the snap on in the US general it just...

Like many (most?) of you I started my tool collection when Craftman meant made in the USA and a good value in tools. Those sockets and RP wrenches have served me well over the years. However, over time I've upgraded my craftsman hand tools to snap on, mac, williams, SK, etc. etc. My question...

The original home of Craftsman brand has announced that they plan to shut down. This is a sad day but hardly unexpected. I remember reading all the threads about Craftman moving production to china for years on this board and always figured that was the beginning of the end. I own quite a bit of...

If you could rebuild your tool box what would you put in it? We all built our tool selection over time. Perhaps at times when money was in short supply and at times when money was more plentiful. If all your tools were gone (but you had the money from them) and you had to put a tool box back...

About 4-5 yrs ago I upgraded my craftsman (USA) tools and purchased a nice set of snap on tools. I did this just before getting married - I knew it was my last chance! :) Over 4-5 months I watched ebay and put together sets of 6pt sockets, 3/8 and 1/2, metric and SAE, shallow and deep (8 sets in...
