Why yes?

Because currently I dont a bench top grinder and for the next few years at least it's unlikely I'll do anything to test this machines limits.

 

[Hpozzuoli]

For $15 why not.


Picked up the milwaukee ratcheting screwdriver and bottle opener set too. Kinda funny they cost the same.

Don't discount the ryobi bench top stuff. I have an older version of that grinder. It's great.

The plan is use it for a few years until my shop is built. Then give it to my best friend or dad if still running.

Amazon order just showed up today. Mayhew 16" lady slipper and a set of VIM triple square sockets. I have never needed these but I know I will sometime soon and I have done a lot of research and these seem to be the cream of the crop

Well now because we all know everyone here has OCD you're going to need a complete set of comfort and regular grips.

Final tool topia order of 2014. Spent $4,304.88 with them this year and didn't even get a Christmas card [emoji19]

Mayhew dominator prybars, hose remover, kneeling pad and a power steering pulley tool I thought I would give a try.

 

[GTA Matt]

I'm a fan of the hose remover and Dominators. What do you use the kneeling pad for?

I complained to a friend who has a lot of experience with ford 6.0's about laying over top of the radiator and hood latch when I'm working on them and he recommended that pad.

Not the answer you were expecting, eh?

 

[Askme42]

I've had that pry bar set in my wishlist on Amazon for over a year. I really need to just buy them.

 

[AddictioN]

Those extra long torx bits come in handy on a HPOP on a 6.0 i have a mac set[emoji4]

Matt im sure that would be nice the hoodlatch can make for a nasty rib cage pain on a 6.0. I use a craftsmen lawnchair that has the seat cut out of it

And on another 6.0 12inch lift and 40s..

You don't know pain til you've test driven one with an aluminum radiator,, and laid your arm across it when you get back I think that pad will get a workout for me lol.

just buy a topside creeper...not exactly a super often used tool, but is extremely useful when you do need it

Yup I'd like a 36" reducing extension too but this will work for most of the time...

How does the triple square work or where does it come in handy? is there a fastener that uses this similar to Torx? curious as I have seen them advertised but not sure about their use.
Thanks and Happy New Year

Armstrong Combo Wrenches,In the long or extra long stain polished variety. Also a couple of Armstrong Gearbox like ratcheting double boxend wrenches.

Also, another cordless impact wrench. This time it is a Metabo SSW 18 LT. kit with 5.2amp batteries. It feels like its made of high quality material but very very light. In fact even tho it is brushed, it is lighter then my other brushless compact brushless impacts. And I really like how its anvil has both a hog ring and holes for pin detent too. Socket holds extremely secure and as virtually no wobble, unlike almost all my other impacts. Only thing I don't like is how it doesn't have alot of rubber padding then other brands.

Damnit, now I want a IR 12V or 18V LoL.

They're also known as XZN fasteners. They are found on German cars, particularly VW & Audi.

Generally European stuff has to say made in... To actually be made in the country, even then global components is allowed to a point with out stating. They can put pretty much what else they want on as well or just plain not state coo if they want to.

 

[DodgeMech]

Yet another tool I didn't know existed. I really love / hate this place.
