The 3/8" big brother to my 1/4" SK set arrived on Friday, as well as a 1/4" Dual 80 flex head, but I forgot my camera at work.

 

[uglyjacko]

Most even look new still!

Those don't seem to have the flank drive style radius in the walls, I wouldn't mind to know how they perform.

I swear there will be a day where most my sockets at home will be SK.

Picked up the new snap on stud remover and installer set yesterday. Got the metric one first. Standard one had to be order.
Then also picked up this flashlight also. It's bright for how small it is and was 23 bucks

That was the goal.
With all the SK sockets now, I felt a little guilty buying the Snap-On ratchet...

Got this 1/2 100 ft air a dew weeks ago on amazon for $26, also pictured is my speedair hybrid hose by legacy which is the very same as flexzilla, I like the bluebird better.

 

[Nik_95Cobra]

Picked up a deep 1/4" set of SAE sockets to replace my gearwrench ones. Got them on sale for $77. Also got a free shirt with them lol. Also got a new tumbler for my Epiq side Locker to match my box and hutch.

 

[COSMOS]

Just picked this up today, Hammerhead 41"wide 18" deep 62" high, does not appear to have been used much if any at all, needs cleaning...

I have the speedier hybrid hose and it is not the same as the flexzilla hose. It is a decent hose and I was happy with it for $12, but no may is it as flexible as my flexzilla hoses.

Amish Fury is that a 3/8 ratchet and if you dont mind what did matco get you for on that. I need one that size.

 

[Sterff]

flarenut crowfoot wrenches and new die grinders. I made 3 holders for the crowfoot wrenches too.

 

[just a noob]

Epsteins order showed up

 

[jeopardy98]

I needed these to replace the door latch in my wife's Jetta.

this one is the 1/2" omfglong handle (overall length is a tad shy of 26")... i got mine off ebay for a little under $150... matco wants a hair under $230

the condition on this one was listed as used... i'd bet on barely used if actually used at all.... wouldn't be shocked if it actually just sat in someone's toolbox

Thanks guess i will check e bay see what they got in 3/8 and what the longest handle I can get is.

Tekton Gunsmith Punch set came in today, all USA. I can't wait to test them out!

in locking flex the longest is the 12ish" handle BFR128LFT but you can get the armstrong version for less (unless you get a good deal on ebay)

 

[nanofrog]

Picked up some King Tony sockets from Craigslist. Figured they were worth $20.

I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Is there some sort of benefit to this? They already have 2 or 3 different sets. Not trying to **** on your new purchase but it looks cheap, like something Craftsman would release with that oversized blow molded case, black phosphate finish, and laser etching. Asian COO?

 

[Strouty]

Those are a bit cheesy for what they are, you could make them if you wanted to. Basically it is a fancy double nut for removal and a threaded unit with a setscrew stopper for installation.

 

[priceman1414]

6 inch long tap for cleaning threads in an engine block.

6 inch long tap for cleaning threads in an engine block.

Where did you get that? Is it 3/8'' coarse? I could use it.

 

[wagzilla]

Anybody got the new snap-on verus edge??? I get to try it out on Friday windows 7
not sure why they didn't just wait and put on windows 10??

I want to know more about the stereo you got there???

thanks James

 

[cliftonbros89]

My very first HJE order. Long handled Armstrong 1/2" ratchet. Got the basic one for the truck box. Probably invest in the Maxx flex for the service truck.

That is the Snap On 1970's washing machine edition.

Why do you like it better if it is exactly the same? I have swapped to pretty much all flexzilla stuff and have no complaints.

It's 3/8" - 16. High speed steel.

I got it from a local industrial tool place. Cost 14 bucks, made in Bosnia. All of the similar ones they sold (same length, thread) cost $35 or more, website does not list country of origin.

It worked great for what we needed it for. Used it for four holes. Before, I couldn't turn the bolts in by hand, now I can turn them all the way in by hand. It is currently the only tap I own.

The only weird thing about it is that it's a reduced-shank thickness tap, so the square drive on the end was an odd size - it was too small for my dad's big tap holder, but it was too big for the small tap holder he had.

He was comparing the speedair hose to the flexzilla, then said he likes the bluebird one better. So he was not comparing the flexzilla to the bluebird, but the speedair to the bluebird. Does that make sense?

It does.

To the OP then, why is the Bluebird better? What do you use it for primarily? Mine are all used for paint and body areas and take a heavy beating.

Needed a good torx driver set. T15 - T30.

Also got these Gray flare nut wrenches. Canadians, take note - these things are every bit as nice as Snap On/MAC flare wrenches- maybe even nicer. Seriously, I have never seen a more 'perfect' set of wrenches haha.. sounds weird to say but they are literally flawless. Can't wait to use them.

 

[DirtyWeRX]

Got these today. I originally planned on just buying a 12mm and 14mm. Instead Driver knocked $100 off the price of the whole set. Sounded good to me

James

Better question is why didnt they use windows 8 since its made for touch devices. As far as windows 10, companies in general never use new operating systems on diagnostic hardware. Too many stability issues. They use an operating system that is a known quantity.

Those are a bit cheesy for what they are, you could make them if you wanted to. Basically it is a fancy double nut for removal and a threaded unit with a setscrew stopper for installation.

Well, I guess I wasn't too far off on it being like something Craftsman would release then. How boring. That's what happens when you try to come out with new products every month.

I've been eyeing those flare nut wrenches, when they're on sale in the flyer I'll be sure to pick them up.

I'm thinking of picking up the 3/8 and 1/4 complete sets in this flyer. But talk is cheap...
