    Dumbest thing you've ever done in your garage...

    I was young and poured gasoline in a styrofoam cup...only to see the cup dissolve and gas went everywhere. I didn't tell my dad until years later.

    Chinese vs. USA Craftsman RP ratchets (PICS)

    It looks like the tooling for older RP ratchets was shipped overseas. I have an older one (circa late 90s) and a newer one (circa 2006). The older one is chunkier just like the china-made one in the pictures. I hate to see these made overseas.

    Is WD40 the best shield against rust for your tools?

    ID this Snap on Ratchet

    It might be for aircraft. I know some C-130s come with a modified 1/2" SO ratchet. I think it is used to manually lower the landing gear.

    Opinion on Damaged SO f71A

    I'd skip it and wait for a working used one. If the handle wasn't bent I would say to go for it.
