my most recent tekton purchase wasn't so great... i heard their sockets were decent taiwan sockets on par with just about everyone's... these are chinese and look like what you get from the cheap $20 120pc tool kits

and yes amazon shipped them in that huge box

closer pic...

doesn't quite show just how crappy they look

Some of tekton's stuff isn't bad but I had trouble trying to get my long flex magnet warrantied. I still haven't been able to warranty it and may have to just buy a new one.

We used to offer differing tiers of sockets, and this is our economy grade set. The sub $10 mark gets your basic sockets that will turn bolts.

All the other sets are much better, but those steel rail sets are basic, and meant to be basic.

What does the stud gripping part look like? Did you try them out yet and while im asking what'd they set you back?

 

[Negen]

These look identical to my facom ones I bought 6 years ago. Brilliant bits of kit. So simple and quality

I needed an extension warrantied and email Dave but got no answers. So I PMed him here and he found my emails in the spam folder and took great care of me.

I would suggest you pm him.

So now all Tekton chrome sockets are of the same quality? I was fairly impressed with the E-torx set I got.

Thanks for the update guys, can you use these to install studs too? Or they eat threads. Im fed up of the double nut deal...

Ive been in need of a new welding helmet, too many partial flashes and head aches later i ordered this...


Well needed and overdue!

So I've been brain washing my wife about an air compressor for months now, every chance I got I rattled off a reason for one, or just said the words for fun. Finally got enough slush funds together to make it happen, partially thanks to the Sunex rebates I found out about on this forum. Not the biggest baddest around but should serve me well. This was the best value/size/longevity I could afford, no luck with used units.

Husky 30 Gal Oil lube rewired for 240V. It was my lucky day, HD had a refurbished unit good for $70 bucks off. Complete with Miata Decals, I hate being an advertisement so I usually cut up vendor stickers and stick them somewhere. Needless to say I'm pretty stoked!

Nice stuff.

Does stuff from Japan dominate the high end tool niche in Malaysia ?

Not familiar with USAG but they look an awful lot like Facom! Nice Hazet BTW...

They're reasonably priced for what you get. What did you spend..11 bucks for 12 sockets?

A coworkers girlfriend went through her late fathers things a year after he passed now and was gonna sell these at a yard sale but he knew I'd want them and offered to me first. Got everything for $180.

Whatchya gonna do with those?

Big boy toys!

The small one is electric and goes about 70mph. The large one has a ~3 hp engine (runs off race fuel), 4 wheel drive, 2 speed transmission, disc brakes, and tops out at around 50 mph.

The batteries are for the small one. Each battery runs $50-100 a piece.

I just got it Friday so I only have a couple hours logged with it so far. I really like it. Sprays just like my 3000 but with better atomization.

I never liked the 4000. Never felt the same to me. Used one right when they came out and then went back to my 3000 guns. It took my rep a lot to talk me into it.

My sales rep tried to talk me into a supernova tried it once and hated it. I've had all Satas for the last 15 years and glad I stayed with them love the 5000. Ended up spending another $400 on an adam2 and adapters for my other 3 guns

Got it off of Amazon. Works like a champ. Heats up quick and reads right on the money.
I might be looking to get a little bigger one that 4bbl carb would fit in.
Seems very well made.
