    RealGear MIG welder?

    Anybody ever heard of/tried these? My local welding supply store has this one on sale for $299. The guy says it's a direct copy of the Lincoln 140C -- yes 140 *C*, i.e. it has continuous voltage selection!! It will also take a Lincoln gun/spool gun plug and play. I originally went there to ask...

    HF purple gun tips

    Hi all, I need to spray latex paint for some crafts project -- well, my girlfriend asked me to do it for her -- and I don't want to use my good gun. So I went and bought a harbor freight purple gun (66222) thinking it was the same one as the good old 43430. It was pretty cheap with sale + 20%...

    Speaking of hacksaws ...

    Today's onetooladay.com has a "Lenox high tension metal cutting hacksaw frame" for $19.50 (down from $38.91). I think it's just an "OK" deal, according to google, but i figured I'd ask you guys about it. So is this a good saw/deal? Thanks.

    Modding a Craftsman toolbox?

    Hi all, This box is on the club sale this month and comes up to a little over $260 (plus tax). I thought it could be kinda cool for extra storage, but I'm not a huge fan of the drawer layout. Does anybody know how the slides/drawers are attached to the toolbox frame and how easy it would be to...

    S936 vs S80 ?

    I've never really tried any of those two, but from my experience with my dual 80's and 936's in 3/8" and 1/4" drive, I would expect the S80 to trump the S936. Yet, looking on eBay for the past few days, I've noticed that the S936's are still fetching pretty high money and sometimes even higher...

    My FLF936 ***** :(

    Hi all! I have some problems with my newly acquired FLF936 and I'm hoping somebody out there can shed some light. First of all, this is the least smooth ratchet I've ever tried in my life. The amount of torque required to make it ratchet is ridiculously large, making it almost unusable. I did...

    I have a 3/8" drive beam type torque wrench to which I'd like to add something like this: http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=all&item_ID=78088&group_ID=229&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog The thing is that I really don't need anything that fancy since I never really use it for...

    Anybody got the grainger Knipex deals?

    Just checked grainger.com and they had a lot of Knipex stuff on clearance. I almost had a heart attack when I saw that they had 10" alligators for less that 6 bucks :shocking:! They still have them on the website, when if you can click on them, it just says that they are no longer available :(...

    Kobalt ratcheting wrenches - US Made

    Hi all, I was looking at hammers yesterday at Lowe's and happened to notice those. I'm not too familiar with Kobalt's products, but I don't think I'd ever seen them before. They have a big "Made in the USA" logo on the front and it says Danaher on the back. They didn't seem to look like what I...

    OTC "Floor Boss" jack?

    Hi all, I'm looking for a good floor jack and I came across this one: http://www.tooltopia.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=9209 I like the lift range and the lifetime warranty. I'm not sure what "assembled in the US" means though - maybe they put the stickers on it in the US ...
