I don't think this is something negative about Toptul because there was a 2 footer pipe involved when this happened. I just wanted to share the pics. 1/2" Drive.

lol...I did the same thing to a 24" long 1/2" drive breakover bar (Snap-On) a few years ago.

I also split a 50 year old 6" jawed vise in half.

Cheater bars are a strong indicator that you don't have the right tool :wtf:

Yes you are right. The shop was newly opened and was not yet fully equipped. We are considering getting 3/4" drive hardware now as well.

Is there a secret to getting ahold of Mike? I sent him an email but haven't heard.

Mike's response to emails can take a few days, but I did reach him by phone. Mike is a great guy to talk with and is very helpful. However, I have made a number of inquires as to "stock" and I have found him to be out of stock on a lot of the items that I requested. At the time of my requests, it was going to be a couple of months before his next shipment arrived. With that said, I have real concerns about warranty since it could be quite a while to get something replaced if he is out of stock on that particular item.

But with the tools I have received from Mike, I am very impressed with the quality and price of what I have purchased. I assume that gauging ordering stock will improve as Mike's business grows. I don't think you can lose ordering tools from him.
