But they are sitting further away than the full size assortment sets ....

They stopped that so fast and just went to rebranding anything they could. I'd only choose Tekton for anything a person would abuse and just use the warranty for replacement. It's internet Harbor Freight with a higher price to justify the convenience.

Snap-On won't private label their best selling offerings to a lower priced seller. Every dealer in the country to instantly have a class action lawsuit. I'd guess they don't mind the yellow handle pliers because 1) they are still wholesaling at the same essential price and 2) not like yellow...

Honestly I have no idea why Klein has never made a hard handle version of their iconic handles. Offer it in both the yellow/black and just solid black. If I get time I'm going to do an A.I. version of it.

Unless you're referring to PEX, the supply lines before that were PVC. Before that was copper.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say your probably over 65 years old and are stuck in some old ways. New houses or any built or remodeled in the last 25-30 years have PVC pipes for supply and DWV. The only pipes in a house that would need a pipe wrench are gas lines. I wouldn't ever...

Don't take offense, but this is all terrible advice except for the screwdrivers, which the person already likely has. A block plane? Really? A hand saw for "trim work"? Who does that and get's even close to acceptable results? The last thing I'd get anyone these days is a pipe wrench.

That's IF someone is permitting. I know the OP said they were, but I'm saying if not, there will be no harm done by not matching the original house footings.

If the current porch didn't cause any damage in the last 71 years at a frost line depth, then an addition at or below that line likely will have the same results.

Honestly the $10,000 for digging a hole and doing blocks will be well worth it. Below frost line but doesn't have to be the same as original. Doing some proper water prevention like tile drain will prevent any movement. Do it once and do it right I guess is my ultimate guidance.

I think this is the key to the whole debate. For example, some tools haven't changed design in 100 years or more. Putty knife from the 1940s is in all intents and purposes no different than one made yesterday.

Not his channel, but you're right that LAST BEST TOOL rarely seems to have used tools featured.

I love when the OP posts these goofy *** things. Such spam with no quality or proof of anything.

No .... the old stuff was just milled starting with a huge *** log. Looking at the rings the tree would have been roughly 4x the diameter.

Well, to be fair, if whatever he has seemingly bought without thinking about it works, maybe that's a sentiment across the overall workforce that has some merit. In your example, if the Breman (or Milwaukee since they are practically the same) work for all but the 1%, are they really that bad...

I thought when they went to the thinner head the tooth count changed.

I'm curious what new tools they are talking about releasing as that arena seems a bit crowded so anything new to the market needs to be innovative, high quality, and/or worth more than their cost.

Post a picture, would be very helpful in this situation.

For the fun of it?

Going to call this complete. My rendition of how it would have come from the factory. Painted frame and blued screw. I have almost no use for it. If someone wants to trade, let me know.
