Been a while since my last post (9 years?!?!?), but now I'm back. I'm considering building a barn/garage/storage shed for storing small tractors, implements, ATV's, snowmobiles, lawn mowers, boats, future project cars, and misc. extra junk. Haven't decided on a size yet, but probably 1500-3000...

Please help me ID this Snap-On top tool box. My best guess is a KR-53, but I am unfamiliar with Snap-on boxes. Any idea of rarity or value? It is in pretty good, but not perfect shape. I see old three drawer boxes similar on Ebay go anywhere from $20 up to nearly $300. I've got a guy...

I picked up a small box of assorted USA sockets and ratchets last weekend at an auction. I bought it for a few Snap-On items that were in it, but after I got home and went through it, there was also a nearly complete vintage "Mustang" brand 1/2 drive set - complete with 12 pt sockets 7/16-1"...

I went to an auction last weekend, got auction fever, and picked up an old "Twentieth Century" 260 amp stick welder. It's in excellent shape cosmetically, and seems to weld pretty well for the two sticks I've used so far. It also has what appears to me to be a spot welder attachment - sorry no...

I've got a CT3850 1/2" cordless impact that doesn't hold the batteries very well anymore (housing must be worn where the batteries snap in). Would Snap-on repair it under warranty? Or would I need to buy the new housing for around $25 from Snap-on? I don't have easy access to the Snap-on guy...

I picked up this old Huot wall mount tool cabinet yesterday at a used-a-bit place. I got a decent deal on it (not suckworthy though), and I paid more than I wanted to, but I thought it was too cool to pass up. I've seen some of the Huot chests and roller cabinets (my Dad has his from when he...

Just curious.....What are some opinions on the best tool brands no longer made? I don't like the hassle of warranty, weather it is mailing it in, exchanging at the store, or off the truck (even the "no hassle" warranty). I just want high quality tools that can be had at a good price on the...

I have 2 sets of like new Snap-On midget wrenches. I think they are both set OXI709SBK or equivalent. There is one set I'll call the "newer" set, and the other I'll call the "older" set. The "older" set has an old logo kit bag (although most of the wrenches are new logo - two have been...

I have a NEW Bahco (part of Snap-On, Inc.) 3/8 drive 22pc 12 pt socket set for sale. Made in USA! This was the display set from a store that went out of business, and is missing the 1/2" deep socket. I'll include a nice used Craftsman 1/2" deep to replace it. Photo is off the internet (not...

Wright 17 piece 3/8 metric socket set. Includes 6-point sockets 7-17mm (9mm is missing, 12mm has been replaced, 16mm not part of the original set), rubber grip flex handle, u-joint, two extensions, spark plug socket, rubber grip round head ratchet, and plastic case. Looks to have been used...

Picked up an old Snap-On Torqometer today I've been looking for an in-lb reading torque wrench for a while now. I don't need them very often, and have been leaning mostly towards the HF or similar 3/8 or 1/4 drive click-type units. At a used a bit place today, I found a Snap-On TEC12FUA for...

I was at the surplus store today, and came across some NOS Petersen 6" long nose vise-grips (new in the box), some NOS Diamond 6" long nose pliers (new in the package), and some little NOS Xcelite long nose pliers (loose), all American made mid "90's vintage. I bought one of each for myself...

My neighbor has an old Craftsman toolbox chest/roller combo he wants to sell me. I kinda like it too. It looks very similar to the combo on here: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=44917&highlight=toolbox+restoration The biggest difference I see between the one on the other...
