shot in the dark but here goes: i have matco 4s box with 27" deep drawers. i want a side cabinet or locker of some sort for it, but the matco side cabs cost more than i want to spend on add-on storage. hoping to see if anyone has had any experience mounting cabinets from different brands...

just noticed matco dropped a new spark plug socket set, part number SB12SP. it looks very similar to the earlier 13 piece set (which i think is made by vim), except it has pinless swivels instead of the classic U-joints. it also looks like the sockets have lil detent tabs in addition to magnets...

are adapter kits generally interchangeable between brands, or does everyone kind of do it differently? i know the snap-on BJP1 and the OTC CA6630 sets both have cups and plates and sleeves and such that have proprietary connecting systems, but what about other generic presses like astro...

hi yall, i was shopping for pneumatic drills and came across some that are "non-reversible". does this mean they only drill in reverse (or the normal drilling direction)? are they specifically designed for fabrication? somebody educate me.

recently i've been quite amused with the idea of a 64pc socket set including sizes from 1/64" to 1". you'd never need a metric socket again, but then you'd also be stuck with weird sizes like 51/64 or 17/32. i don't know where i'm going with this. criticisms and opinions very welcome.

did a bit of searching and i couldnt find anything so i figured i'd start a new topic. does anyone have any advice on cleaning the surfaces of power tools? i've been given the curse of really liking the high-vis color, so my primary power tools (ratchet, 3/8 impact) are high-vis. unfortunately...

weird question, and i wasnt sure how to word the thread title, so bare with me. i'm a professional mechanic and a lot of times come into contact with spare tires that have to be lowered to the ground from under the car (although usually, i'm lifting them back up lol). it is definitely a hassle...

hi all, this is kind of a dumb thought i had. i've noticed that most manufacturers make tools (particularly screwdrivers or soft grip ratchets) and non-customizable toolboxes in specific colors. these tend to be orange, red, green, blue, and sometimes yellow. power tools are similar, but that's...

it's that time again, to discuss this topic which has been beaten to death and resurrected ad infinitum. that said, i can't quite find a discussion that compares my specific choices, and i wanted a little input from you tool addicts out there. i've been shopping for 6-point 1/2" drive deep...

so i've done some googling but can't find any information. are there any sockets out there designed to hold drill bits? like for example a 1/2" drive socket that i could put on an impact. if not, is that because it's a bad idea? or just because nobody has done it? just a random thought i had...

hi friends, i picked up a few tools today from local sellers and want a little help identifying them (mostly to see how ripped off i got!) firstly is this set of torx bit sockets. seller claimed it was cornwell, but i haven't really been able to identify any cornwell sets that look quite like...

hi all, fairly new here. i've been doing some research regarding power tools, specifically impact wrenches. i'm in the market for one and i've been considering a handful of different brands but i'm still having trouble deciding. for context: i work in a shop as a fairly entry level tech, mostly...
