Was visiting family in Salem, MA and wanted to check around for some places with used tools. Flea markets are not as common up there as in the South and antique stores vary on their pricing. Quick search of Google showed a couple options. One was just on the other side of Boston, and the...

Hey everyone, currently my fiancé and I are getting into wood turning. We have previously done some custom knife handles, furniture builds, and small projects. Turning pens and rings were something we had looked into, but the cost of a lathe and garage space prevented that. The local Rockler...

Couldn't find much discussion about slim ignition wrenches that weren't vintage. I wouldn't mind a set of those, but I don't have time to hunt at the moment. Background: I have a new cheap 3D printer that I am using to make small tools and repair/replace broken plastic in things I am...

I couldn't find another post or Ace Hardware thread that was recent. Currently the Crescent 3 pc adjustable wrench set is marked down to $20 from $65. 10, 8, and 6 inch sizes. Decent set to keep in my travel tool set...

I recently stumbled upon one of these Tuffy screwdrivers that were a good price and seemed very durable. After finding out more information, I picked up a few more. These have proved to be some of my favorite ones and I would like to have a complete set. They can be the original TUFFY/Swallow...

This was a tool shown in a tool tip on Stacy David's show. I liked it, but there weren't many details about making it in the video. So I made a quick instruction for it on the Instructables site. I thought it could also be useful for others here since I have needed it to make custom edge...
