[Ratchet Guy]

New for me from Ryobi

 

[RatZ1LLa]

These things are gorgeous. They feel oh so good. I cannot wait to get a chance to use them. From the smallest to the largest and even the tool roll exudes quality. I went back and forth on these things for a month trying to decide if I should really spend the money on them and now I'm so glad I did. Now there's no question of if I should buy the SAE set, but when.

Now might be a good time according to camelcamelcamel:

I've had my eye on both sets, currently waiting for a 10mm from HJE to see if the wright grip is for me though.

Late reply but just wanted to mention: try your damnedest not to fully extend that tape. It's a good rule for all tapes, but this one seems especially susceptible to recoil issues if you do pull it out too far. Mine never fully recovered the one time I accidentally went just past the 30ft mark. Good cheap tape otherwise, though.

View media item 52163Hultafors bar that was on special at the builders merchants, £3.99 ex Vat
SK tune up set I found on Ebay, for about 1/2 what the ratchet is now.

 

[AmishFury]

$16.99? with a socket? that is a heck of a deal

picked this guy up from a local auction

picked up some fittings, hose, a gauge that i'll have to replace because it's the wrong thread size, and these

then my amazon order arrived... well all but the 7mm wrench that must have fallen out of the improper shipping box

 

[tlpatter]

Been stockpiling tools in anticipation for a job that I will be starting on Monday. All of the Proto came from the Zoro sale a couple days ago.



I really like the look and feel of the Proto punch holder.


Thought this Boston Gear chain breaker I got off Ebay is pretty cool. A good chain breaker is a must have when doing industrial maintenance at a corrugated box plant.

Unfortunately not. $29.99 and I had to pay shipping, I guess that it is actually pretty old stock. Put some oil in it and its getting pretty smooth though.

brought this little bulk buy

I've been so excited all week for this!

VIM Tools 34 Piece Torx Master Set:

I gotta tell you. I have a set of the VIM triple square drivers. For the price I am WAY impressed with their product.

 

[Jarhead0408]

I agree 100%. I started using S&K for that reason many years ago.

But those look GREAT!!!!! I will keep my eyes peeled for some of those.

Yessir. Ar you using the S•K raised panel wrenches (old style) or the newer ones? I love how my old RP's feel, but I might upgrade to the Wrights and pass the S•K down to my son.

Hazet 600N metric set. 7-27mm
A couple of Proto ASDs filling the gaps the Hazet set missed. I'll be selling my Proto set.

Comparing the Hazets with the Protos

 

[Bigblue&Goldie]

What is it that you like about the Hazet's more than the Proto ASD's?

What size chain does that breaker cover? I'm looking for one to replace my current breaker that will work for up to size 80.

 

[tlpatter]

The one I got is nos. I saw a used one on ebay with a buy it now price of 22 shipped. I happened to stumble across the one I got right before it ended for 26 shipped. Mine goes up to 3/4 inch. Idk if they make one that goes all the way up to 80.

 

[cliftonbros89]

Thanks!

How do you like those Felow screwdrivers? Having a wooden handle, how is the compliance in your hand?

 

[AV tinker er]

The Hazets are a much stronger wrench. And I've noticed they fit nuts/bolts a little better. I'm amazed at how strong and light German steel is.

With everyone else posting their new Wright wrenches, I had to pick up a set in metric.

That's funny **** right there.

 

[JAKE-THE-TOOL-MAN]

I already have tool truck wrenches but you guys are making me want to get a set of Wrightgrip. The satin ones are **** and would be nice for a truck or junkyard set

 

[Yankee]

Was debating between Milwaukee or Dewalt. Second picture made the decision.

Hopefully one day that sticker will be able to drop the "with global materials".

Pliers rack - all blame lies on Strouty for posting his rack up. The 410 hulls & ready rod worked, but not really as well as I wanted.

You are very welcome!


I decided to stick with the long theme for a bit and picked these up.

Almost like you are calling them second tier tools...

 

[Zeroek]

Ive bought more than this in the past few days but these are the main things. Those snap ring pliers are well worth the price. Napa Slide Hammer I paid $40 for. Plan to clean the box up and repaint it. Lube up and clean any rust off the attachments. I like to take care of my investments. Ignore the dirty sock from today.

 

[Shootingblanks]

This is replacing my Craftsman that ran without a problem for about 15 years until it died. I rode that Craftsman HARD for YEARS. I have 0 complaints about how reliable it was. I will be using the tank in my system. I will do my best to cover my install this week.

Awesome Quincy compressor. When my Craftsman takes a **** on me, that will be my replacement, but may bite the bullet and get the 80 gallon one.
