Without going into unneeded details, I will state the following: If Astro Pneumatic makes a tool I need, they will receive my business. Always. I had a very small issue with one of my Astro tools. It wasn't an emergency and the issue didn't affect me negatively. I called them, stated my...

I've been searching for a decent first MIG welder for a while now, haven't been in a rush as I haven't needed one. Now I need one so am hoping to buy one within the next week or two. Found a CL ad where someone has an unused Hobart 210 MVP, complete and in the box (supposedly only removed to...

Recieved the set today after purchasing from JB Tools yesterday (Medco Tool is in Ohio). Very nice quality set. The Astro is stiffer at the joint but the Sunex has been used. It is not too stiff and I am not bothered by it. The included aluminum rail is nice but I will be ordering a Westling...

I'm shopping for a set of 3/8" impact universal (swivel) sockets and am quite surprised that Astro offers a pinless metric set that's extremely low priced. There are some iffy Amazon reviews where a few people had bad 17mm sizes (recent purchases). I was curious if anyone has used these and...

I looked on the TC website and see they offer it as a 43 oz flat-flar ball peen. It seems to be the perfect size for persuading CV axles loose. Did TC ever offer this in any other size? -- Dave

Has anyone tried swapping an anvil from one Makita impact wrench to another? I have the XWT04Z, purchased close to 5 years ago, which has the detent pin anvil and I would love to swap it with a hog ring anvil. I tried checking online to see if they are dimensional equivalents but there's no...

I have been researching flood headlamps to wear doing my automotive work, as my current headlamp has too narrow a beam. Pretty much decided on the Pixa 1 due to its strength and how it has a notched system which holds the light angle well. Also love its simple switch which can be used while...

I have been wanting a fine tooth long handle 1/2 drive ratchet. Found the Hazet 916HPL some time ago but did not want to drop the $$$ on it at the time. Saw Jens had it on sale at less than $99, which is a superb price. He was quick to respond to an email regarding what the shipping charges...

Hello everyone, I have recently stumbled upon what appears to be an older Northern Tool hydraulic press. There are a few oddities and I’m hoping someone has worked with one or owned one, in hopes of finding out the true tonnage. There are two matching manual hydraulic bottle cylinders. Both...
