Yeah, I bought the Quinn last night after the second engine mount went bust. I like the idea of digital for those reasons, I can actually see where it is. But I want to eventually rebuild my 912 motor completely in the next year or two, and crazy concerned about the PI and tbh as much as I...

CORRECTION my PI is actually 10-50. So it should work on 30. Sorry I didnt get a ton of sleep and brain farting this morning.

Yeah, I bought a quinn last night because I am a bit freaked out and cannot trust it anymore. I need to put rockers back on and I am not taking any chances with that. Which ***** - I got the PI because I wanted a premium, accurate and excellent quality one. I will call PI later today I think.

Actually the 1st one was used, the second was new.

I was thinking about that, but the fact that its clicking when i test various settings on a lug nut shows it works.. so rather than the tool I am looking at myself now. I mean wtf... LOL

no, the lug nuts didnt snap. I used that as a benchmark/test - they are at 90, so i should easily feel the click through the range - which i did. What I stripped was a 30ft lb 13mm nut that holds on motor mounts on a 914 engine (I should say i keep stripping them rather than snapping them, that...

I have a precision instruments 20-100 ft lb 3/8 split beam torque wrench. On multiple occasions I have over torqued and snapped or stripped fasteners because I didnt get a click. I have gone slowly to make sure I pay close attention to it, but no dice. I tested it on some lug nuts at various...

After seeing the porsche factory race team garage in the pits at IMSA races, I was jonsing for an all white set of boxes like theirs. Since I dont need snap on or lista quality, I needed something in my budget Last summer I swapped out my red gen 1 us general 44 for two husky rolling work...

All I use are 6 point. 12s are just asking to round off ends.

Some updates. Traded in my hf 44” gen 1 box for two huskies in white and a white tool cart. Also added a new stable mate for the 912 Electric upgrades keep getting pushed back - this time from being laid off. Someday!!

It’s been a while but finally getting around to sharing pics. Ended up selling my 44” HF gen 1 us general box and replacing them with two husky white boxes. I also added a white HF tool cart with of of my normal maintenance and tune up tools tools for the 912. The boxes got debadged and...

Hi Gang, I am looking into upgrading from my us craftsman set to Hazet (german cars, german tools, right?) a few quick questions on combination wrenches. Does anyone know the differences between the various models (163, 600, 603, etc)? Also has anyone ever seen a set of 6 point hazet...

Yeah the thought is a workbench, bench grinder, small HF sand blast cabinet, belt/disk sander and a drill press in there, and then storage for porsche parts, and non car related tools (work working and power tools). mostly a storage room, and then a room for larger tools i might not have a big...

Hey! 4 dead and Co, 2 further, 3 rat dog, 2 other ones. Jerry died when i was 14 so i hadn't really gotten into them yet. I was an allman bros fan first (saw 20 shows), and didn't get into the dead until i was 23 (40 now). How about you?

Hi hive mind, I have an 8x19 side room on my garage. I want to utilize it as a workshop space, and parts storage. Does anyone have a similar smaller attachment to their garage that they use for things beyond just storage? Does anyone have galleries or pics they could post or link to? I am...

I have a Troy built gas powered, 4 cycle. What I love is the electric start. This is such a life saver - f**k pull cord start. We got ours on sale at Lowe’s during spring. They marked down all their snow blowers to get rid of them and then this was marked down lower because it was damaged...
