First I got a great deal on a air tool oiler. I got to say I fell in love with it from the moment that I saw it. Its simple and just works!

Second is a tire machine that I managed to get from a buddy who is in process of selling it (for the past 3yrs, so the chances of me having it for a while are good).
Don't mind the mess in the garage, I am still not done cleaning up after the roofers put on new shingles on :(

Everything there came from Mac, but you're right most of it is just rebranded Knipex. I believe those canon plug pliers are actually Milbar. Mac part number is CP45, and it looks like Milbar part number 45Z

Just got a large flat rate box in the mail today from GJ member Warmpancakes. Weve been filling this box for a few months now. Some of the items I've bought directly from him and the others were items that came from eBay from sellers that would only ship inside the US. Saved me a bundle in shipping and allowed me to pick up some deals that wouldn't otherwise be available to me. I can't thank him enough for his generosity.....not to mention his packing skills! Not one cubic inch of space was spared! There was some padding inside but to be honest, it was packed so precisely that nothing would have moved anyways! Awesome guy! Can't say enough good things about him!
So, onto the tools....
Items I bought from warmpancakes:
911bcp pliers
Fz936 3/8 universal ratchet head
The "joint effort" items
-Yellow pistol grip ratcheting screwdriver
-Yellow mini12pak screwdrivers and picks. It was missing one pick but I had a
spare yellow handle to make up the set
-7 piece metric set of snappy wrenches
-far25a 1/4 air ratchet
-6x 1/4 orange hard handle ratchets
-snap on 3/8 deep sae sockets
-Earnhardt jr ratcheting screwdriver
-snap on allen key set
-orange T8 screwdriver to finish off a set

Oh, and I picked this fadh12o adjustable from eBay. Now I just need to find the 6 inch in orange to complete the set

Finally got my Pliers rack from SO today... now my pliers collection looks so wimpy!

IMG_0168-1.jpg


Bought the long reach 45° angle needle nose as well today.


He also brought me these:

And at lunch I turned the big one into this:

So I have a nice little family now :D


I've got plans for the smaller handle he brought me... stay tuned.

Where did you get that screw driver rack? I like it a lot.

Wow, lot's of bites on that one huh?! Haha.

It's the same one that's at Northern Tool etc... they're all made by "Plyworx". I spent alot of time looking online for Canadian distributors.... Northern will ship to Canada, but the shipping costs as much (or more) as the rack! Other places wouldn't ship to Canada.

Finally gave up and was gonna go to Home Depot and make my own. Was talking to my Snappy rep that morning, and he raises his eyebrows; flips to a page in his book and pointed at the exact one. It's not in my tool catalog (1100) or the one on the website, but it's in the dealer book. I expected the price to be more than down south... but it was around the same ~$25... I can look tomorrow at my receipt for PN and exact price.

So far I love it... holds alot more than pliers! May have to cut it down a bit for my box though... little too big for my needs.


The screwdriver rails are from Ernst MFG.

http://www.ernstmfg.com/products_lowpro_screwdrivers.php

They're really cheap @ 9.99! They're a type of rubber similar to silicone that hold the drivers well and stay in place in the drawer. Easy to trim too.

It is a nice plier rack. I made my own out of a shelf but it was wider(deeper) so took up more space and it didn't have progressive openings. smaller to larger. So I went for that one. i would have expected a higher mark up but that sounds about normal for down here.

Well I bought an old old Craftsman 10" 1hp Table Saw. $60. The top needs cleaned up from some surface rust, and it needs some liquid wrench, but other than that it's solid.

the plier rack is cheapest through snap on take that SO bashers

I know, I didn't see that one coming :rocker:

If I ordered it through Northern Tool, it would have cost me $41.24USD plus whatever FedEx would charge for broker fees... sometimes it can be alot!

My search finally ends....2 plier racks ordered from snap on.....thanks ECP!!!

No problem! I hate it when I know something's out there but I can't get my hands on it :3gears:




And here's my Wal-mart impulse buy from tonight:

IMG_0171-1.jpg



Couldn't find a regular sharpie to compare it too... but this thing is huge! The felt tip is about 3/4" wide :eyecrazy: No screwin around with this baby!

I use this instead of Dykem. (which is a dye used to put on metal before you scratch in your dimension lines). easier to use and cheaper.
