A few things I picked up over the past few weeks. And a little gauge I rigged up for a bit more PSI when doing leak down test. More to come
Did you check out the cordless light at sears just used mine tonight. Will be using it again tomorrow to finish tonights job.
4670-1/12 which they call a generic set. Still expect to spend about 1/3 of that for it.
they also offer a set for VW/Audi, a set for Chrysler, and a commercial (euro) set. Stahlwille offers sets as well, the actual tools look identical except for different colored plastics.

2mm punch set to mock up an old style compliance plate on the motorbike I'm restoring. 
$350 from Canadian Tire, I just had to have one. The TG 165 is about as awesome as I thought it would be, but it doesn't come with a case. For this kind of money it should, I need to figure something out. The case from FLIR is another 50 bucks
I got the exact same FLIR thermal detector. Nothing special about the FLIR case, just buy a cheap multimeter case off Ebay. I think I paid $10 for one and suits it well.

So, have you used it yet? What do you think about it, what are the pros and cons of this unit. What do you use it for?

Can you give us a review or details? What did you use it for?
I like those. The sets I have are square shank for the entire length and those would make building centering jig really easy. Where'd you get those please?.

Paid $140 for everything. Not a screaming deal but not too bad. Hex sockets look almost unused to me.

These came in the mail yesterday. Had a chance to start using a couple of the sockets yesterday evening. Quality seems nice.

EBay for $15. Lots of sellers
I got it specifically for electrical and mechanical troubleshooting. AvE on youtube has a great video about the electrical side and EricTheCarGuy also has a great video about the auto tech side. I haven't had much of a chance to play with it yet but I definitely will. I am pretty amazed at the picture quality and resolution for the price. It still is an IR thermometer gun with all those shortcomings as far as temp reading goes but having the thermal image helps so much. Worth 500 dollars? Nope, but it's certainly worth 350 Canadian. You can see traces of footsteps on carpet (even at a fast pace) and other cool things like that. For now it's a toy but I've had instances in the past where this would have saved me SO much time. The ability to troubleshoot bad electrical connections/wires visually should pay for itself in no time.
Edit: I have found cold spots in the house just from playing around, so that's another potential use.

Stopped at Home Depot again. Picked up this Echo CS-330T chainsaw for $58out the door. Can't wait to use it!
That's a steal. I would have bought it, as well!

It's not a Stihl it's an Echo
Clearly it's an echo, two people said you got a good deal...

I am thinking of buying one too. Is the price the everyday price or a special. Seeing as I don't need it immediately I will wait it may come on special one day, hopefully before I actually need it.

I finally found the last couple wrenches to fill in these racks, which makes for some great garage wall art.
VG- I saw your "wanted" post in another thread a while back, a few days later I logged on to respond that I had most of what you needed, and then couldn't find your post again...
Glad to see you completed the sets.

Pretty fair haul this week...
Snap On kra53b I plan to fix up for my nephew
1/2" drive Armstrong crowfoot sockets from eBay
Armstrong 1/4" metric socket set for the service truck box
Close out on the SO truck
Hammer, BP hose clamp pliers, snap ring pliers, hose pick, not quite full set of 3/8" wobble extensions, 1/4" SAE universal sockets, ratcheting screwdriver
Also picked up a 7/16 hex socket to throw in with my SK set in my service truck. Got it for the same price as a SK from HJE and didn't have to pay shipping.
