    The HEXtension

    Just ordered mine through PayPal--could have used the longer one on a Cressida we were working on today. Looking forward to having these in my top drawer!

    Best socket organizer. Ideas?

    Magrail TL. I got mine from Tool Source.com. They're expensive initially, but they can be configured any which way you want. The magnets are really good at holding the sockets on, even upside down, but it's not hard to get the sockets off. Previously I used the Lisle magnetic trays, but found...

    Amp Clamp for a Fluke 88v

    I bought the i1010 fluke because it could be used for cars and big trucks, most of which have 4 batteries.

    mayhew warranty rant

    Is there an address you can send a regular letter to? Sorry to hear how they seem to be ignoring you. I bought the 4 piece bearing race punch set this past spring and I hope I don't have to go thru this. Good luck.

    Another happy Toptul / Wren Tools customer

    I've used the hose grip pliers a number of times and really like them - my hands are small and not very strong and my left one is arthritic. My '93 Toyota has a bunch of vacuum hoses on the engine, so, the pliers are a lifesaver. I've also taken them to school with me and my lab partners have...

    The new PROTO spline drive combination wrench

    Does it look like they'll take the place of both 6 and 12 pt. sets in the future?

    HONESTLY - Does this look OK or f-n stupid?

    I agree with steevo and torque1st - probably won't cost too much either.

    I got pretty nervous when you stood in that second drawer picture - that's one stout box.

    Fluke 175(?)

    Keep looking until you get one with the rubber holster - they're pretty much a necessity when working on cars. Let me know if you need me to take some pictures of what the holster can do - my daughter is still asleep, but she can help me put some up later on. If you're a GM purist, I want to...

    SAFETY GLASSES..Anyone use them in their shop every day

    We have to wear them in auto shop class at school and I've gotten used to them. The older you get the more you appreciate what you've still got.

    Auto electrical help

    If your Fluke falls off the fender, it probably won't be phased - the yellow holster really protects them. In the owner's video for the Fluke 98 Scope, they purposely drop it on the floor and then turn it on and use it to show how rugged it is. I had one cheap meter that died on me after 5...

    Looking to buy a new AC Manifold kit

    Buy a set that has no R-12 indicators to keep things simple. I have #41345 Yellow Jacket for 134a. The tool man at the auto mechanics programs at my community college really likes Yellow Jacket stuff. A buddy of mine was in refrigeration work for many years and he likes Robinair stuff. The...

    Are you trying to use one set for both 12 and 134a?

    1/4" charge or 1/2" Acme charge?

    My last post is incorrect. The red and blue gizmos are called couplers at Yellow Jacket. I have their catalog and two of their charging sets - I'll see if I can find the answer tomorrow.
