The heartwood isn't nearly as big of a deal as the putty and terrible handle job.

I just got these sets of Williams supercombos 1/4-1 1/4 and 6mm-24mm and relegated the old c man raised panels to my truck box.
Same thing I did. I love my Supercombos.

An impulse buy from standing on the Matco truck for too long this morning. An air scraper. Price wasn't bad so I bit on it.

Just picked up the 20 & 21 to finish the set / fill the last 2 slots on the wrench holder..
22mm (fits 7/8") would have been a better choice than the oddball 20mm.
Its the point of not having skips I bet.

Ding Ding! You got it. I already have a wrench set 6-25 mm plus 1/4 inch to 1 inch. There's plenty of overlap without having any skips. Not to mention 22 mm / 7/8 is mostly found on O2 sensors in my case and I have multiple speciality sockets for that task.

I picked up one of those sharkbite pex crimpers (#23251) a little while ago and it was much bigger than I expected. going from the pictures I had seen online, I had thought they were going to be much smaller. a little hard to crimp in tight spaces.

Why wouldn't you just get the properly sized 1/2 drive impact socket? No reducer to twist. And then use an impact?

I guess this counts as a tool right. We got this lift at my work.
I also got the 20 pc gear wrench mm/sae set from sears the other day on sale for 49.99 forgot to take a pic if it.

We have those... Except just two so you can't pick up a whole truck.

How do you get the tires off or is that lift setup not meant for that?
It's not meant for that

That torque wrench looks really nice. Is it a flex head? It says it is on the amazon.de site but I can't tell.
just some small things but i'm really impressed how nice the northern tool subbies are just feels like a good wrench. the 6 point brake bleeder wrenchs i got also seem really nice at least feel like that.
on the other hand tho the prybar kinda seem well not so great. maybe time will tell....

Couple recent purchases.
Fluke 87V, BNIB for $200. With leads and thermocouple. Traded off the Milwaukee meter I bought a month and half ago, as it only went down to 40mA, and that was not accurate enough for doing parasitic draws. Love this fluke. Already put through its paces at work, and is just what I needed. Easy to use, with a lot of options.
Snap on seal puller. Such a simple design, but worth every bit of the $60. Comes with two sizes of pins that act as a fulcrum. Great for axle seals. Beats the heck out of using a prybar.

No it's not a flex head. Just a regular torque wrench with a nice readout. I specifically like this readout over the engraved ones.

I'm currently working in the Middle East and there's a massive industrial complex just outside of Abu Dhabi that has every tool or piece of equipment you have ever dreamed of. From Chinese cr*p to top quality US & European makes. I found an out of the way company who have masses of new old stock Williams as well as Britool and Gedore gear. I go there most weeks and they're happy to let me root around the place amongst their 'old' inch equipment. There's also a huge pile of 'scrap' items (for scrap read incomplete) which they can't price up because they haven't got a code in the coputer to use! I will take a picture of the store next time I'm there and post it. Here are some pictures of my latest purchase:

My Saber light is 2 years old now. I usually only get a year out of them before the batteries are done and I beat em up pretty good. It gets used 7 days a week and I wont buy any other light to work with. Matco truck had the same light branded Matco for the same price with a 1 year warranty so I snagged one. It has different leds in it so we shall see how it lasts.
And slowly converting all my metal rails to the plastic style which I like better. The 3/8 impact sockets are used every day and I havn't broke any and they all seem to still have a positive snap.

No need really. They make life so much easier for a lot of things though.

Matco's. 12 bucks for the 10" I'm waiting for some shorter ones to come in.
Snap on was suppose to have ordered me some after I bought the ratchet and socket combo but hes never showed back up...

Also sold under Gearwrench, and now recently Home Depot has them under the Husky name. Those are all standard length though, no choices in length or color.
Looks more like cobra/"waterpump" pliers.
