More awesome trusty cooks to another happy customer with another 24hr delivery. :thumbup: product and deal of the year right there. I'm thinking about ordering a couple #7s soon. Probably 7th or 8th hammer in total. And I don't have any ball peens yet so I'm not done ordering still.

The screwdrivers were warranty, not sure if I will keep them since I have a full set of the new style handles. I've never used these gloves, my buddy said they are awesome.

How do u guys think I did. These are a little old but I seen a lot of people saying how durable these old snap on torque wrenches are.
Paid $100 bucks for the both of them total. They are in really nice condition
A 1/2" qjr-3250 that does 30-250ft lbs and a tiny 3/8 qjr -217b that does 30-200 inch pounds. Came with original paperwork.

I think you did ok. I have the same 1/2" torque wrench that is quite old and still dead nuts on when I get it calibrated.

Nice score.:thumbup:

The local Ace Hardware is going out of business and they had these marked down to $4 each. 58806d858536d774a606db113ab58c71.jpg

Seriously looking at one of these. Especially with the $200 rebate. How do you like it? Does it come with the leads to stick weld out of the box? How do you like the display, kinda seems a bit gimicky....

Comes with everything you need to mig or stick weld. At work we bought the spool gun kit, but I've never used that.

It works great with 7018 (only electrodes I've used on it) and it migs like a BOSS.

It auto cold starts, fluctuates wire speed AND heat. On top of that, it's a long arc welder which I like.

You just set the gauge of the steel your welding, wire thickness and go. It will automatically do the rest.

How much do they run per pair? What makes them so nice? Less problems with moisture, more comfortable, etc.?

Like walking on clouds. They are the perfect thickness/cushion between regular socks and heavy wool socks. Stay on your feet good (i have a problem with socks slipping down towards my toes due to how i walk). Fairly cheap, and made in USA.

Somebody has to say it..... WTF is up with those adjustables? Are they the special can't get them on anything lobster claw edition??? They even say USA and I am a bit embarrassed about that. Sorry, I don't like to flame any tools in this thread, but I can't get over the design of these. :eyecrazy:

Judging by the size, they're probably meant for big fasteners that are about as tall as that "lobster claw"

I never knew my old screwdrivers sucked, until I joined this place.

My first SK socket purchase and I'm real impressed with the quality. I've been using craftsman for years but was unable to get a 1-5/16" 6 point socket from them. While I was at it got my a bearing greaser. Not sure how good it will work but figured since I was rebuilding my trucks front end it would be a good time to try it.

No pic yet, but the wife just bought me another toolbox. the Harbor Freight red 16 drawer model.

She had already bought me two 44" chests, one top chest, one end cabinet and one end drawer unit last December. Along with the Stainless 42" That I had from Sams club years ago, I finally have almost enough storage for all my HAND tools. Now that is scary how many hand tools you can accumulate after 35 years of wrenching.

Picked up some Ernst rails for my truck box. Got them from Summit. Very pleased with them.

New 20v DeWalt drill and impact. Got the set together. Got $100 off trading in an old junk 14.4v drill at a local hardware store. Even though everything else is 18v I couldn't pass it up.

They may not be the new stubby or flat-flat ball peens but they're still new and green and Trusty-Cook so I'm pleased.

Anything wrong with the adjustables? I assume they should look like that way?
