Exact same thing happened the other day to be. Broken end link and the bushings were shot. Wouldn't have found them if I wasn't doing routine maintenance and checking the car out.

Search craigslist for good deals. Recently scored a Hilti for dirt cheap

It seems like a tough ol' ratchet, better then some of my newer ones haha

Thanks for all the help!

Hey so I've had this old ratchet for some time now and dont know anything about it. Its 1/2'' drive and is also female drive on the reverse side. Im sure you guys know something about it. Thanks[/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG] [/URL][/IMG]

I have a Snap On S5902 wrench for sale. It is a 17mm Hex end with a 21mm 12 pt. box end designed for VW transmission and oil plugs. I'm willing to trade it for 1/4in. drive tools or SK tools.

I'll see if I can get pictures soon. The new hole idea sounds good but I'm afraid I would drill a little off. I might just try again with a punch and a little more muscle, if that doesn't work, I'm gonna drill it out.

I took the saw apart and found the problem. The pin that holds the roller that moves the blade sheared off and now half of it is stuck in the gear and the other half is with the roller. I can't figure out how to remove the sheared pin, I hope it is removable since it is less then a dollar part...

Thanks, I know where I can get the parts like the table and cord. I just can't figure out what is wrong with the saw itself and was hoping someone here would know what the problem is so I can get the part to fix it.

I recently got a used Milwaukee jig saw that needed parts like the table and a new cord. The saw works, but the part that holds the blade doesn't move when the saw is running. Is there anything I can do to repair this or is the saw done? The model number is 6256 if that matters. Thanks

Ok, I new there was a limit, just wasn't what I thought it was. It makes sense though to have a larger hole on a non load bearing wall.

What size studs do you have, 2x4 or 2x6, I'm fairly certain you can only drill a hole 1/6 the stud width.

Well, I got it working after removing the feed from the circuit and making a branch circuit out of a less used one. I believe that somewhere between the garage and panel the neutral was switched and made hot which is what was messing everything up.

Sorry, there are 4 individual 2 lamp fixtures. I tried the plug method and that worked on the lights. So now I think it is an issue with the wiring before the switches.

I didn't wire the lights, they were what I was trying to fix. The diagram is how I wired the switches and how they were wired before. I replaced the old switches with new ones and they still don't work. I might try to wire it with a single pole switch and 2 wire and see if that changes anything.

Would one bad ballast effect the remaining lights?

Thanks for the replies. I'll have to check the switches but I'm certain I wired them right. As for the lights, the thing that I don't understand is that they are constantly hot. I used a non contact volt tester on the light sockets that hold the tubes and even they are hot but don't turn on...

I've been trying to fix these lights in a garage. They are 4 T8s wired together and controlled by 2 3-way switches before the wire gets to the lights. The switches don't turn on the lights and I've replaced them and they still don't control the lights. All of the wires coming off of the...

I'm in, I'll wait for details.

I've been looking for some time on this section and didn't see a thread for the specific electrical tools but threads showing off other tools. So, show of some of the stuff that you use.
