    Some more SK drop in teasers..

    Epsteins for the win again!! Still just can't believe how fast and awesome they are to work with. But on to the drop ins. The 3/8s was a direct hit out of the park; smooth as butter and feels really nice. A little "clicky" compared to the old worn out one it replaced but that might just be...

    Favorite Screwdrivers Part 2

    Other: SK Hard handles are my favorite. Still using the set my grandpa gave me when I turned 16, and the tip still look fresh out of the package. The handles just fit really well in my hand, more so than my snappy hard handles, personal preference of course.

    Topside creeper

    I have the 3-700 version and my buddy has the 3-100. They both have there pros and cons. The 700 is nice as you can go on either side of the tire but with the 100 you can straddle the tire. So depending where in the engine you need to work they both can have there pit falls. The 100 to me has a...

    I'd love to see pictures of it, and thank you sir! Admittedly I probably over paid for it at $50 but I have a thing for SK tools, plus I got it loaded up today and it fits my needs perfectly so I'm happy. I can't find any solid info on the date from the logo the closest I have found is a company...

    Harbor Freight 3 Ton Daytona Jack Versus Snap On FJ300 Jack

    Stopped in to the local Harbor Freight last night to pick on of these up. They were changing up the display and I ended up picking it up for $159 as it was the floor model, perfect condition minus the box. The manager mentioned something about how it was a big deal and every store had to redo...

    3/8 Impact Wrench Selection

    I gotta agree ×4 on this, used mine all weekend. Not only is it a horse but it's tiny as well.

    need a new airhose

    I have been using blubird hose as of late. Can't compare it to flexilla but it's quite a bit more pliable than the Goodyear hose at cold temps. It's also fair priced at that $30 for 50' range. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

    Parker Vise and Railroad Anvil find and Resto

    I wondered the same thing but didn't want to rush to conclusions. I know close to nothing about parker vise lineage. I figured someone that knew more than me would chime in on that. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk

    Parker Vise and Railroad Anvil find and Resto

    Started the disassembly today, the PO had welded up welded the swivel in a couple places as well as the swivel nut. A little dremel work and i was able to cut the welds cleanly and pull the all girl apart. So I started removing the many years of built up grime to get ready for bead blasting and...

    Parker Vise and Railroad Anvil find and Resto

    Saw this vise on craigslist the other day priced at $75. Contacted the ol boy and ended up settling on $60 plus a piece or rail he had sitting around. Vise is a Parker 26X, jaws are a hair over 6" wide and she weighs upwards of 180lbs. I cant find any info on this vise at all and the only other...

    The VISES of Garage Journal

    Welp, picked me up another one today. Its a Parker 26X, which I can not find any info about. Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated. The gatorade bottle and Wilton 9500 should be a decent size comparison. Guy threw in the piece of rail as well for taking the "big hunk of steel off his hands"...
