Hazet makes a number of special tools for auto manufacturers that are not listed in their regular catalogue. For example, I have some VAG hose clamp pliers made by Hazet with Hazet logo but also with VAG logo/VAS tool number engraved on them.

Can someone recommend an American-made tap and die set? I need both US and metric sizes. Have never had a set, so do not know what manufacturers to search for. Thanks in advance!

I bought a low-cost bluetooth module from Amazon and it connects to the Torque pro app on my android tablet. Code reading, resetting, live data, logging. Email reports to yourself! Highly recommend. The wireless module was cheap ($20?) and Torque pro was relatively inexpensive as well, and...

I'm finally at the point where I'm ready to redo my cracked, uneven garage floor to make it a better space, but I don't have the time or expertise to do the floor (specifically the tear-out and re-pour). I can handle all other aspects of the garage redo: cabinets, electrical, etc. Can anyone...

Just got some MONSTER sized NWS pipe wrenches from Ash. Super fast all the way across the country.

Continued unpacking after the move. Measured for Lista cabinets :)

Fair enough, I composed the message last night on my phone, and I definately meant "keywords." I know I've got a lot of reading to do, am looking forward to it :)

Well, finally at age 30-something I've managed to buy my first home. It has a 1.5 car garage with a floor in disrepair, some major cracking etc. I'd like to not only make it look nicer, but seal it up so it functions well (e.g. with spills being easy to clean up). I literally know NOTHING...

I suppose it depends on what I need the tool for, and for how long.

I am the king of cheapskates, but one thing I did NOT cheap out on was my jackstands: https://www.google.com/webhp?q=esco%20jack%20stands The minimum lift height is kind of high, and they are not as convenient to use, but they seem much safer to me.

Packed up :(

Could the punches be made from brass for gunsmithing?

VAG (Volkswagen Audi Group) factory / dealer tools. Doesn't matter if it is the exact same as another commercial tool -- I want the one with with the VAG number on it :)

This is an inappropriate place to offer medical advice. Bill said he has pernicious anemia. Unless he posts his intrinsic factor assay results, I don't think he should start taking an oral B12 in lieu of injection for reasons I will not go into here.

If you got the replacement from the same dealer, isn't it possible that the new ones are just from the same bad batch?

This is reportedly happening a lot lately. Our local mail substation told us that lots of customers report tracking saying package delivered to house but it never was. FWIW, Amazon.com was super nice about it and refunded/replaced with no hassle.

I am looking for a corded 12v impact wrench for my wife's car My initial google searches have been disappointing in that everything seems to be a no-name brand with poor to mediocre reviews at best. Do any of the large, reputable tool makers have a 12 v electric impact wrench?

Hi, I just moved to a rental home, my first home with a garage. The detached garage has a floor with some significant (but not dangerously deep) holes in which I would like to patch with quickcrete. The problem is that I do not have a wheelbarrow, and that's the only way I've mixed it before...

Watch whom you call lazy. I work 6 days a week x 14 hours / day and don't have time for foolishness. My wife returned them and I did not want to make her have to screen the replacement pair. Everyone seems positive on CL, and I am sure that my experience is an aberration, but in the future I...

Funny you should post this. I purchased a pair of 317's at a WalMart as a show of support for WalMart carrying American products. When I got home, I noticed that the pliers had a large gap at the tip when fully closed because the knife edge and/or anvil were not ground down properly. I...
