They have a pretty decent reputation? The store had a whole display of various sizes in straight and bent tip. I was thinking of picking up a few more.

Well I can't talk about their prybar since I haven't been able to find some yet. But all their scrapers, putty knife, roller, paint brushes are really decent. It's the brand I always go for that kind of stuff, so does my dad. Never had problem.

Red and green co-existing. I don't have the patience nor the time to always wait for green.

I suppose you could use it for that but it'd be a tad uncomfortable!

The service cart? Not a lot to tell really. It goes up and down and holds parts and tools. The lift mechanism is pretty smooth and feels sturdy. It's got this odd leatherette wrap around the pole that serves as a bumper. Rubber or plastic like they have on the larger carts would have been a better choice IMHO. The drawer is a bit of a joke. Feels a little cheap and the detents feel like they're made in the chinese craftsman factory. It'll do what I need it to do though and it is fairly heavy duty so I'm OK with it. not excited, just OK as I'm sure I could have gotten a similar quality cart with a different name on it for much less. I'll have more to tell as time goes on and I put it to use.
The ratchet, however kicks ***!

I don't know if I'd be using that rigid to remove spark plugs..I'd probably use a spark plug socket, but to each his own..

I think I was supposed to post this on the kitchenjournal.com
If your beating your meat in the garage, I guess you could post it here....
the Wera 27RA
i was torn between the bayonet style non ratcheting, and the ratcheting with the fixed blade, and went with the ratcheting because the main reason i wanted one was for quick removal of panels held on with 1/4 20 socket cap screws, and other various small size socket cap bolts on panels and such that get tedious to take off and put on with a set of hex keys.
looks like it will do the job good, im excited to get to put it to work monday, just need a solid set of hex key kits to put inside to use.

Its a Snap On SOSTPC. I have one and it works great for me. I use it in my home garage. I never really saw the need for a cart for my self a DIY guy as my main 53' tool box just sits around, but this is really handy for bringing over to the hood of the car or next to the truck (won't clear a lifted 4x4) and hold all my tools and sockets

First post for me but here are a few things that I've recently acquainted. Oh, and im Jordan by the way.
I work for a School Bus Company. I do very minor work. Oil changes, oil filters, fuel filters, light assembly's, electrical work, and repairing seats. When im not doing this stuff I do daily bus fluid checks. EVERY SINGLE DAY. haha
I picked up the pliers fron Menards. I didn't have a set for work, figure I would check out menards and came back with them. I think I spent like maybe$60 all together on the pliers. I noticed sears had a sale on the Craftsman pry bar set for 19.99. I didn't believe it until I stopped in, I didn't even hesitate. Finally the torx screwdrivers, harbor freight I think I paid like 7.99 or something.

I have one of those and it's actually really useful! Great for rounded bolts and stuff, and has even had a jack handle on it when needed.

I use a set of husky metrics at work and I think they hold up just fine. If you loose one just replace it with another $2 socket.

BOGO 3/8ths Semi-Deep impact sockets
BOGO 3/8ths chrome semi-deep sockets(buy the sockets get a ratchet). I traded the ratchet that comes with the sockets in for the green swivel head 3/8, and by doing that got a free bottle opener. The chrome semi deeps had to be ordered as he was sold out but he still gave me the ratchet. Also picked up a set of torx bits as I was tired of breaking my Lisle ones and been wanting a set forever, AND ordered a lithium green screw gun that will also be here next week.

Found these pretty body tolls in a bag of jewlers tolls at the flea market!?!? Any idea of age or proper names?
Crown top (60's- early 70's) era hammer dollies for sheet metal work.
Left one is a dolly/spoon for working on thin or hard to access sections. Sometimes called a comma or wedge dolly.
Right is a general purpose 2 sided dolly. Both are very common and basic in the sheet metal world.

Are the taps/drills in that set marked with a manufacturer or COO? I think I've seen a similar set listed.
China. It was around $35 shipped. I think the seller was some outfit called Shars. They sell a lot of tools and related stuff. I got a metric set from them about a year ago, and so far they are holding up well.
