I am looking for recommendations for 3/4 drive deep sockets that are chrome finish. I know wright makes some, but they are pricey. Is there no demand for these?

A nice little collection of 12 inch chain wrenches. Craftsman x3, Diamond Tool, Blue Point, and Williams. The Diamond is the best engineered by looks followed by Blue Point and Williams for this group. The craftsman are OK, but the wrench has changed for the worse over time. <a...

Went to an antique tool auction (mostly planes and wood working stuff) but this ratchet caught my eye. There was actually two of them and this was the best condition. It is a double adjustable reversible ratchet. The action is smooth and I found a couple of posts on antique tool boards that...

My day job is quality management in health info tech company and I thought about what defines a quality tool independent of COO and brand name. Here are my thoughts: 1. Quality of raw materials 2. Manufacturing process - forging, heat treating etc 3. Fit and Finish 4. Design and...

I purchased the 22-Piece Thru-Ratchet set at Lowes last week and thought I would take my try at a review: Specs 22-piece metric and SAE combination set. 1/4″ and 3/8″ socket adapter, a 3″ extension, SAE sizes 3/8″, 7/16″, 1/2″, 9/16″, 5/8″, 11/16″, and 3/4″ Metric sizes 10, 11, 12, 13, 14...

Picked this up on ebay last month and decided to mount it on my slatwall as a display set. Sizes 1 5/16 to 2. I thought the display was "cool"... Now I just need a bulldozer to work on!

I was intrigued by this tool box system in Louisville today at the National Farm Machinery Show. Took a couple of pictures and I thought I was share. I met the inventor and was impressed that someone is still trying to innovate in a mature market - go capitalism and hope he makes it!:thumbup...

I am considering buying some used Lista (eye level 64" tall) modular cabinets for tool storage. They are in good condition and have up to 17 drawers for about $1K per cabinet. I could buy two for a little less than $2K (hopefully), but I am not certain it is the best purchase. I have no doubts...

I think that is the greatest phrase in the english language. My 90 year old grandad uttered those words on Christmas day and today I made it a reality. I am attaching a couple of pics of the box and some of the items. And for sheer vanity I snapped a couple of pics of my man barn for enjoyment...

I purchased a c'man pro series box this summer after is was on close out at my local Sears store in Indy - it was out the door for $900 and full price is $2300. It is a good box I think for the money (not super thrilled at the grip latch though)...

Looking for any reviews or comments on the locking flex pry bars. They are going on sale for cman club, but I can't find any reviews. Are the more useful than the fixed pry bars? Any help is appreciated...

I searched the forums and did not find anything on these tools:headscrat I was searching for some Armstrong Tools through an Industrial Supply catalog and found these KT Pro Tools. They are sourced from Taiwan but they look decent. I was interested if anyone had used them and if they compare to...

I have been buying the Craftsman plastic 3 piece socket rail set when I had a 10% coupon. They seem to never be on sale at $12.99 and the a package of 5 clips is $2.99 so it is cheaper to keep buying the 3 piece set to get extra clips...

Being a complete tool addict, I have a special place for oversize tools that I rarely have the opportunity to use. The largest socket I have is the 2 3/8 Craftsman 3/4" drive. The 1 1/8" is there for scale. When the local Sears store closed I bought the 1 7/16 box wrench and is the largest one I...

I am posting pics. of my 40X60 Pole barn finishing project. I have been researching this forum and others for a few months and the discussion threads and pictures are great resources so I thought I would contribute. I am planning and building a tool room and workshop under my loft 40X10...
