How do you reverse the ratcheting mechanism on these? Is there some kind of button on the side? I could use one of these sets for rear suspension work on the whip.

Yeah they appear to be pretty bad lol but they'll work for around the house. I have a Armstrong set at work so these are just for play lol.

A few little knick-knacks I have picked up recently.

The Neon Green Hammer drill has been posted in the "Green ****" thread.

The 3/8" torque wrench was gotten in trade for the first version of the Electro-Torq. My dealer allowed me $350 towards the purchase. The Lufkin 25 ft Engineer's tape is a no-cost replacement from Lufkin for the first one that broke (will not retract) on its first use. I bought a couple of Stanley tapes at Home Depot for spares.

The Thor hammer will go into the tool cart along with his Thor brothers, and the Vaughn USA made Carpenter hammer is my house hammer. (I think the handle on this Thor looks kind of chintzy, compared to my others of the Thor Brand)

The 18V 3/8 drive cordless impact is going to celebrate its first birthday next Friday. I traded a Neon Green CT6850 1/2 inch drive for it when I decided that I would never have a need for a 1/2" cordless impact again (too bulky, and too heavy)

Daym those open ends are huge LOBSTER CLAWS...


I don't see why everyone makes a big deal about the "lobster claws"?
Ur mainly buying those wrenches to use 95% of the time on the ratcheting end

I picked up this and a bench-top lathe today from the local woodworker's shop that is closing.


I picked them both up for less than $1100. This is my first spiral head jointer.

Went to my sears to get a ratchet replaced. I was checking out the gear wrench brand wrenchs. I noticed one said made in Taiwan and the other china. The Taiwan was the same price but only metric. The china was standard and metric. So i walked out with these. They look nice anyone had any experience with these? Bummer just turned the package over, its china made [emoji35][emoji52]

They aren't bad unless you have to really crank down on the open end. I had the husky set of wrenches at work for about a year or so and they worked well. They had the same big open end as yours has. I ended up with a set of Cornwell wrenches.

Use clear rtv over all the seams inside the cabinet. They leak everywhere. Get a good vacuum designed for blasting as well, it'll make your blasting easier to see.
