2024 RALLY TANK - Wera Raffle for Epstein's Day​

One of the coolest ways to determine a winner of the Wera raffle. I didn't win my heat but, as a 61 year old man, I was rooting hard. Thanks for putting that together. I understand the customer loyalty that you've built.

The winners of the Norseman raffle announced here:

Not sure what I missed, but I bought the Norseman SPM-29P, but didn't hear my name. Oh well I'll try again next year...

Dang! Not sure how I missed that, but if you participate next year you'll get two entries. Sorry!

Picked my Epstein Day order today, Eagle Grips, a t shirt, stickers, a koozie, and got to see the El Camino in the parking lot. Great day!

 

[Squankum]

My order arrived today! Lots of odds and ends to fill various needs in the house and the shop.

We've got two Grayvik hammers destined for the basement toolbox...

Is that this electrician's hammer? What are electricans tapping at in deep holes? Interesting.

Historically, electrical boxes where held in place with roofing nails in the back of the box. The long nose lets you knock them in when they're in the back of the box. they're generally pretty useful for a bunch of things. A buddy gave me an old vaughan, knowing I have a hammer problem. He said "I've got an electrician's hammer for you". I thought he was going to give me a rock or maybe a pair of linesmans, but it was a real hammer.

Jealous. That Grayvik ball pein was like -11 in stock when I ordered Guess I waited too long!

 

[McFarmer]

Got my order, thanks to the HJE crew for an excellent packing job.

Those General inspection mirrors seem really well made.

 

[toolman0217]

Received my order. Thanks HJE crew! Looking forward to seeing what everyone else purchased to add to my wish list.

 

[jeffmoss26]

Got my order but they forgot my box art

If that's the 16oz one (90074), it may have shown negative on hand when I pushed the button as well, but the order went through. We'll see what happens.

Also, didn't have the time to share my order earlier, but here it is for whatever it's worth. It was tough to pare it down to this. Lead me not unto temptation, for they have this cool decoder ring...

 

[02Xterra]

Got my order yesterday! Unfortunately I didn't get any box art this time, but hopefully next order. Most of the basic tools are for a tool set I'm putting together for my oldest nephew, but I did manage to get my first Koken tool, the double swivel looks fantastic. Also love the shirt, it's a great length. Thanks again HJE!

 

[Troyc4]

Hey I’m curious what brands do you guys like that are not only made in America but based locally. I love Wilde out of Hiawatha KS, use to buy only Peterson Dewitt vice grips because I grew up just south of Dewitt and Klein even though they closed the Moran plant. Almost forgot Sands levels. Has anybody tried ******** Hammers? Anyway love to hear everyone’s thoughts.

Ive got one of those fiberglass handle ball peins I bought back in like 2015, its been a faithful friend since then. I always think about grabbing a back up, maybe its too late.

 

[RTM]

Little Slow on the uptake here. My Shipping notice came Friday morning while I was at work, package looks to arrive Thu!

Jori, thanks for posting the videos on the prize raffles. Not in any raffles, so no watermelon in this race. Have not watched the tank video yet, but imagine it is just as entertaining. Going to share those with friends.

 

[brglasp]

My Xmas in July present arrived this evening! Packaged perfectly along with some beautiful box art. Special thanks to the artist! I requested a vintage tool themed barn quilt, turned out perfect. It shall be framed and hung in the shop. Wasn't sure about the Wera hammer ratchet when ordering it, you push the drive through the head to reverse it. Turns out its REALLY NICE, perfect for a travel tool bag.

 

[nynexit]

Here’s my haul . Thank you Jory and team !

 

[mcentaffer]

My biggest problem with this Epstein Days event is that I found so many things that I still need to order. I have at least two more orders planned at this point. It's really a bum deal.

You can always wait until next year's Epstein Day, though I dont know if @jsackin has picked the day yet for next year, I think he's busy doing watermelon races.

As a certified Knipex Knut, I have to say, you're going to like those cutters.

 

[Jim_No_Garage]

I got my very small order yesterday:

​ Lang 3pc Blue Mini Pry Bar Set ( 853-06-3STB) × 1 ​ Wera Bit-Check 10-Piece Zyklop Mini (168115) (05073645001) × 1

I very much enjoyed the "Hippo's and Rainbows" box art and the freebie stickers and rule!




I already used the Wera bit driver on a project today and have 3-d printed a tray for the Mini-Pry_Bar set.

Cheers

Jim

I find quarterly orders fill up a flat rate box nicely.

I've been able to use them a few times already and do not regret the purchase.

 

[NUTTSGT]

Thanks to Jori and crew.

 

[67CarGuy]

Thanks HJE! My box art (a little fun mashup with Blazing Saddles, an octopus, and some badgers...) is great! Already putting together a cart for the next order, too.

 

[paulsomlo]

Bought a pair of the Malco locking c-clamps - on the left is the Malco, and for comparison, on the right is the similar capacity offering from Milwaukee (made in China).

[Prospecter]

Thank you HJE! Love the tools. Love the swag. Love the box art (sailboats racing). Mrs. P noted that the box art was especially pretty.

 

[ybnormal]

everything else well-wrapped and packed



the bomb tethers were bigger than I thought!

 

[oldschoolcraft]

The winners of the AMH Melon Toss have been announced:

I look forward to seeing the winning box art, photo caption, and reading the winning poem!

 

[Jesrf]

I got my box art this year- lol, still wondering about the photo caption and the who spent the most? Thanks Jori, another fun year! Thanks for the hat and can cooler!

 

[CFC2]

The winners of the AMH Melon Toss have been announced:

I don’t see how you all are going to top these raffle contests next year!

 

[billdodd]

Here's my modest Epstein Day haul. Already looking forward to next year!

 

[oldschoolcraft]

Will melon tossing gloves be available for purchase next HJE Day, whenever that happens to be?

 

[chickenfarmer]

Dang I almost won the melon toss, once again let down by my melon!

 

[NoahG]

Got my order today! I have a Wright ratchet on back order but otherwise it’s complete. I see I’m part of the GL10 club this year. That Wilde flat bar is a thing of beauty, sucker is BEEFY.


My box art is Godzilla giving Jet Jaguar an oil change.

 

[Mr.zippy]

Got my partial order today, one Koken ratchet was on backorder. But seriously, who doesn't have a huge need for an Ajax Banana Wedge or a Piginor Root Saw

Hardly a day goes by that I don't think, "If I only had a Banana Wedge, how happy I'd be" - I just ordered 200; I hope to become a platinum distributor.
