I searched ebay after seeing a few sets here and noticed the same person had sold two sets. I messaged him and asked if he had any more... said he had a couple of sets at another location. A couple of days later, he notified me they were up for grabs... $25.00 per set. Greedy to ****** all four, I know. I may end up getting rid of a couple of the sets.

They're made in spain so I'm guessing Irega? They look an awful lot like the Snap On branded sets. Heck of a deal, I think... considering they're out of production.


I think they're Grip On. I know Snapon used to rebrand them, not sure if they still do. Napa also used to sell a rebranded versions, I've got some rebranded Napa Grip On adjustable locking clamps. Very good quality stuff.

That's a coincidence. This past week I bought knipex cobras and gearwrench 1/4 swivels. I almost got the astro pneumatics but i splurged an extra 20 bucks and got the gear wrenches so they'd match my 3/8 set.

You didn't buy any locking pliers too did ya? That would be just weird.

The results of the Sears SYW points shenanigans last weekend. Somehow I managed to get all of this for $26 out of pocket. Everything except the saw blade is USA

Got a small rolling tool cart a few weeks ago. So far I like it. Made by Homak.

Had that cart to for a while. Was the easiest cart, that would move around my alignment rack, and mainly used it for that.

But my fresh old stock delivery from Willams today, had to call to see if they still had it so i could buy it. :)

Picked these up yesterday. Gearwrench. 3/8" regular and 1/4" wobble. I already had random 3/8 but having a set is nicer. It's not snap on but they work.

Picked up a vintage Craftsman 1/4" drive ratchet...:)

Made in USA

Although previously used, it is in nearly new condition: "new old stock".

Although it looks like it, the toothed wheel is not a thumbwheel. The toothed wheel is actually the directional selector. The button in the middle of the toothed wheel is a the socket quick-release.

I'm not so sure that professional users would appreciate the tooth-wheel as the directional selector.

I hate to rain on your parade, but the stanley made craftsman ratchets arent good

Got this stuff within the past week or so
The mug and tshirt came from the masters of metal tour show I went to today and the chisel/punch and dikes are used snap on tools which I bought cheap at the spring carlisle car show. Then this past week I picked up a 3/8" drive 17mm deep and a 16mm combo flank plus and a 5/16" long handled battery terminal wrench

I want one just because it looks cool, and I don't even like most of Craftsman's tools lol. Looks like the direction-selector setup would get bumped constantly though.

Bought my two and a half year old daughter her first screw driver. I've been putting way to much time into my basement, and she has been a trooper trying to help me out... So on top of the free popcorn at Rona that she tags along for, I got her a little something extra today.

Works great, by the way! Only disappointing thing is that there will always be a bit in the end, as there is no blank space to store it in. But that's ok... She loves it!
