    An old mechanics auction.

    Going through totes still and came across this lot of interesting tools from a mechanics estate. I know what a few are used for, but most I have not a clue.

    Snap On 9/32 drive question

    Ok, I have been digging through my auction totes this weekend and came across some Snap On sockets. These appear to be 9/32 drive. The question I have is on the manufacture of these. This particular socket looks to have been "modified" by someone to make it thinner walled. It is stamped m-12...

    To be exact, we need to repaint the bathroom floor at work. It is concrete and has been painted before. It is subjected to heavy foot traffic, cleaning chemicals, and of course pee. The guy that painted it before is no longer with us and we don't know what he used. It is gray and had a very...

    Today on the tool truck..........

    My Mac guy finally stops by work today. I have not seen him since November ( I even owed him a little money). My safety glasses at work need replaced and I keep forgetting to put a new pair in the van to take there. The Feb flyer has a decent looking pair for $12, so I figured I'd just get...

    Bad smelling handles......

    OK, I bought a set of metric SK nutdrivers off Ebay about a year ago. I open the package and these things smell like someone puked in there. I removed them from the cheap plastic tool roll thinking it was that. NOPE I almost think they are an actually fakes. I have sprayed them with brake...

    Stanley Stock And Carry

    I am going to try my hand at a review on them. One thing I have learned from this forum is, we all like lots of pictures. I previously posted on these and I picked some up today. The price at Menards was $14.99 for a 3 pack. This seemed to be the everyday price. First impression when I...

    Anyone ever dealt with a Dewalt warranty?

    I had a 1/2" cordless drill burn up on me recently. I probably had less than an hour of actual run time on it. I called the 800 number, they gave me the nearest service center address. I mailed it out Tuesday and I have just opened a package from Dewalt with my drill all fixed. WOW, that was...

    I hate using shop vacs

    Wondering if anyone has figured out a way to make a shop vac more user friendly. I am so tired of the machine getting tangled in the cord or hose and tired of the thing tipping over. Any suggestions?

    Snap On surprise in my $12 auction box

    Scored a box of wrenches at an auction today. Mostly USA stuff and at the bottom was this wrench. A quick look up says 1958. I don't know much about Snap On stuff, but I believe it's a good score.

    Info needed on these wrenches

    A guy that works for me gave me a big box full of old tools. I am in the process of going through it and came across these. I did a quick search for Keystone Mfg and did not get much.( it's 1/2 drive) The other wrench is pretty crude in design(maybe farm tractor tool?) it is 1/4 and 1/2...
