That looks a little scary.
Isn't that a propane heater near the table saw?
Yes it is. I find it easier to burn the airborne sawdust instead of having to sweep. [emoji849]

"Old" vs "New" Dewalt socket set.
As a Sunday mechanic I was satisfied with old set I bought few years ago, mostly at that time I wanted to have full deep sockets lines.
Yeah ratchets are a bit to heavy/bulky, sockets are laser marked ...
Here come my new version of the same kit.
Cool, rachets are a bit liter, more slim, sockets have now size stamped.
Cool for Sunday fun !

Where did you order them from?
I got mine from Amazon.co.jp, took only 2 days to arrive once shipped.
I've got a pair of the Merry ones for sale in the classifieds right now, brand new never used.
Was asking cause family member ordered from frankstools and they haven’t come yet.

Not mine but brother saw this new angle grinder with circular saw blade on. Must be new to market, hadn’t seen one.

That shaper looks like fun! Make ? Model?
It's a one-off unit built in the late 40's by a guy who had designed and patented a stroke-adjusting mechanism that allows the stroke to be adjusted while the machine is running.
Stroke and side travel are both around 6".
I have all of the engineering drawings, patent information and correspondence between the designer and several companies he was trying to sell the patent to.
I think the idea was a little late in coming as shapers were pretty much on their way out by then.
It's a cool little machine, I've been known to fire it up just to watch it run. Very relaxing for some reason.
Oh, you might want to tell your family member to email them. I initially ordered the KTCs from frankstools also. That was on 11/22. I had to email them 3 times before I finally got a response. And all the he replied was simply they were out of stock. He did issue a refund that day which was Dec 6 but the refund was sent as an echeck through Paypal. The refund was declined once by their bank & I have yet to receive my refund (still pending). I will never try to order anything from that guy again.
They checked and they had an email saying cancelled. Never order from there again either.

Nice, but a little too specialized IMO. I just used a pair of hose pliers to loosen a connector and they work fine also.

Do you know if they got a refund (like actually receive their funds)?
I got a notice from paypal this morning saying the refund was declined again & the transaction has now been cancelled. I opened up a paypal claim. What kind of business has a refund get declined by their own bank, that's BS. I understand the dude's probaby just some guy trying to make some money but that's no way to run a business.![]()
My son made a similar cutter to that few weeks ago to cut a PVC pipe from inside the pipe that was a few inches below cement floor to install flange at floor surface

I’ll find out.




Since I picked up a 3/8th impact at the Acme tool sale a few weeks ago, I used that as an excuse to pick up some Proto 3/8th metric impact sockets:

I have to order another Westling Machine socket tray for them.
