    Mat vs creeper

    The office was throwing away an old chair mat ( large plastic mat that makes it easy for the little wheels to roll on ). I saved it for working under stuff in the gravel side yard. Not much cushion but the thick heavy plastic keeps gravel out of your knees. easy to clean up too. Side...

    Sears.com hot deals and clearance thread

    I would say it is about the same build quality and that's actually a bit of a downfall. With the extra rigidity that the double bank offered the box lost, the wider drawers feel a little flimsy. You can see it when closing the drawers, if you push it closed from the outer edges it tends to...

    Creepers or cardboard???

    got to love the “low profile creepers” aka cardboard. I have a decent creeper but most of the equipment I work on doesn’t have much ground clearance so every bit counts. Even when kneeling to work on something I like putting a layer down, it does help on the knees. I have a double milk crate...

They must of had a peak in my toolbox and noticed my incomplete set of precision screw drivers because they hooked me up with a full set. I’ll have to guard them carefully lol. Along with that they gave me a full set...

    Tell me about bit ratchets

    I have a couple of the gearwrench kits and use them pretty often. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0062FSAVI/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Good set up but they are offset not zero degree like you were asking for. If you like using your drill this style adapter can really get you into tight spots...

    large combination wrenches

    I do not know exactly what your needs are but I would suggest looking at the larger 1/2" Sunex crows foot sets. Yes you will need a breaker bar or ratchet to use with them but you'll have a nice set of larger sizes for far less than you would spend on each individual wrench. They also take up...

    Pittsburgh Pro (HF) vs Tekton sockets

    I may be a bit late to this topic but here is my personal experience with Tekton sockets. This is with impact sockets so that will make a difference but I feel it may be useful information. A while back after starting a new job I needed several impact sockets that I did not have. With a...
