    Harbor Freight corded power tools

    I am breaking my own "nothing with a motor from HF" rule here, but I am strongly considering purchasing the Harbor Freight reciprocating saw and orbital sander for some minor remodeling that my girlfriend and I are doing.

    Beaded chains to store wrenches?

    I am a college student who runs a side business of fixing/maintaining my classmate's cars. I was wondering if you guys had any experience using beaded chains to string box-end wrenches together? I carry a few large toolboxes in my trunk with all of my tools, and the wrench racks just don't seem...
