    2024 Garage Sale Thread (13th Annual)

    That is no ordinary 200a. That’s a black band. They only made those for a short period of time. You could probably double your money on it alone.

    I need a replacement 1/4" screwdriver bit set. Which one is the best?

    Seems like Menards always has Masterforce kits on sale for next to nothing. I just grab them whether I need them or not. I wouldn't call them the best but like others have said, they're consumable.

    How much can I reduce the temp inside detached garage?

    I friend of mine is fighting this same issue right now. His doors face due west and the afternoon/evening sun is brutal. He just installed two roof vents and has a window open most of the time to help the draft. I think we are going to try an cobble together a solar fan to put in the roof...

    Tool Box/Cart Color Preferences

    I have the HF 44 in Orange. I usually stick to black, blue, grey and so forth. I really picked orange because it was a change from my norm but I do like it. I do like tool bags and boxes that have a bright color on the inside so I can see what's in there without a flashlight.

    Where's the Hinsdale thread? Show em!

    The pouch is not marked. Hurricane is in-line 4. Four valves on the side like the go devil with 2 1/2 inch nuts to adjust and four valves under the top valve cover with 1 nut and slotted screwdriver. I think intake valves are on the top and exhaust in the side but I don’t remember for sure.

    Where's the Hinsdale thread? Show em!

    These things shine like they are brand new. I wanted a set of tappet wrenches to adjust valves in my CJ5 with the hurricane engine and they will do that job. There are two of each wrench and I only needed the 1/2. The price wasn’t bad and they seem like good quality.

    Where's the Hinsdale thread? Show em!

    I picked up this tappet wrench set today. I tried to find info about it but I can’t. It looks newer than any Hinsdale I’ve seen before and does not say Made in USA anywhere.

    "Water Pump" pliers where does the name come from?

    I've always thought they were called pump pliers because the movement it takes to adjust them is similar to the movement it takes to operate a hand pump.

After the deal, Simpson's continued to operate their own stores, creating...

    Found: SK chrome 310 3/8 drive 6 point 10mm socket

    I need a SK chrome 310 3/8 drive 6 point 10mm socket. I'd like it to match what the rest of the set looks like. Two variations that would match my set are: *310*S-K TOOLS*10MM*U.S.A.* or *310*S-K*10MM*U.S.A*

    WTB: Greenlee Auger bits for use in brace

    I need three Greenlee auger bits for use in a brace. Sizes 7 (7/16), 8 (1/2), and 9 (9/16). I don't need them to be brand new but I would like them to clean up well and be sharp and ready to use. I only want Greenlee to match the rest of my set.

    Craftsman Cobra Pliers on Woot

    I was thinking about picking up a couple of these but they are cheaper at Menards currently. I just noticed the Craftsman version don't match the current Knipex. They look more similar to the NWS with the extra little metal on the head.
