Who knows?
I'm a big fan of the Jorgenson clamps. You can never have too many of them.
Not sure you'd want to use them for professional woodworking, but for the DIY'er like myself they work great!

a couple of eBay purchases Sk 1/4 60 tooth ratchet and Sk extension. is there a way to look up the age of the ratchet? I got them for 19 and the ratchet is nearly perfect.

and a cheap 18" hose for my grease gun.

I dont get the chance to take pictures of lots of things I buy, but here are a few.

First picture is an order through the SnapOn Student Program. Adapter set, 6point metric shallow and 6 point metric deep, double leverage pliers, heavy blade gasket scraper with brass top for striking, and Blue Point blow gun.

Second picture is from the local tool store in town. NOS USA Vicegrips, Wilde long cold chisels (very nice quality, I would consider them equal to my SnapOn chisels) and Channellock crimp/cut pliers for general use. Got the air fitting from the tool store as well and installed on Blue Point blow gun. Williams Spanner wrenches were from Ebay.

Third picture is SnapOn SAE ratcheting stubbys, very good deal from a member on here.

Fourth picture is two Williams screwdrivers sets and the additional flathead stubby. I ordered these from MRO supply and although it took a while for the items to be delivered, it was only $75 shipped for all of it!

Fifth picture is a Master Appliance heat gun kit VT-750CK. I believe it was ~$145 through Zoro tools with free shipping. I used $50 off $200 purchase coupon which required me to buy one small extra item to get it all the way up to $200 so I could use the coupon. Regular retail for this set is ~$240.

Everything pictured is USA made with the exception of the Blue Point blow gun which was made in Sweden!

NOS it seems from Grainger. Not bad for $20 I guess. I'm sure I can find a spot to use it. Even came in the tube too.

Last week it was BOGO buy the ratchet and get a set of extensions for free.

Crappy, well my matco dealer is real flakey, first time I've seen him in about 2 months. I tend to not buy much from him for that reason but I've been wanting this ratchet for some time for it's length how thin the head is.

Weird that they are 6 point. Most combos are 12 point box end by default. :dunno:


That's why I picked it up, I've ran into several instants where I wanted a 6 point on a bolt but couldn't get the socket set in the tight spot. Now I got a set for SAE and will be looking for Metric!:thumbup:

Haha. Yea. I get free shipping though so it helped. It was at 55 a few weeks ago. Might drop again. Just add it to a list.

Picked up a small bandsaw about a week ago…

A2E40329-291C-4C71-8EBC-79302CE09D89-326-000000404AB19C47.jpg


Then during the week had a bolt jam in a bracket, so I bought this (which still didn't do anything for the bolt, for the record):

Why didn't you get the long barrel version? They hit harder

That was all they had. I've gone 20 years without needing one at all (I've had plenty use for one, but never broke down to buy one) but that bolt was so stuck I decided to give it a try. It was stuck in a heim joint through a bracket. We ended up cutting the bolt on the insides of the bracket with a Port-A-Band, but STILL couldn't even press what was left of the bolt out of the heim joint once we got it out of the vehicle. Even after drilling and everything else, it was all still seized. No clue what I did just right (or wrong for that matter) to get a bolt that badly stuck (it wasn't in position for 24 hours so not rusted) but it was done. The new heim joint will arrive today. Hehe

My GearWrench 22 pc long combo set with free 20pc SAE/Metric stubby set came in today! Times like this makes me glad we have a "Hot Deals" section. Took a risk and ordered them from NTX Tools and thankfully everything went smooth this time, despite their bad reviews.

I just got them yesterday and I still haven't gotten a frozen tie rod that my regular GearWrench wrenches round off so i can't speak to their performance yet, but the longer length sure is great and they feel great in the hand.
