Dodge.Dunno what good the blades will do you. It'll be dark-thirty before you get the cords un-tangled

No need to untangle those are for the scrap yard. Mostly cordless tools nowadays.

I'm planning on getting in to some welding. So I picked up some welding and metal cutting tools.

MillerMatic 211 with cart.
Miller Digital Elite Helmet
Gloves
Welding Jacket, not visible in the pic.

And a DeWalt Portable Bandsaw, with some additional blades.

I still need to pick up a gas cylinder.

Got back out in the garage and found some hose. It worked great. I love that it holds the hose so it never popped off the bleeder. Now I just need to buy a vacuum bleeder so I don't have to do it the old fashion way.

They make tools that do this. There is a kit under the FIT brand and Mueller-Kueps also brands a deep socket/ratchet version for German cars.

Yeah there are a couple other company's like Motion Pro and Astro as well. I bought this one because it was discussed on another thread and I had never seen it before. I don't wrench for a living anymore so now I just buy tools because they are different and look cool haha. Being in the USA motocross industry it's pretty small when it comes to the selection of tools that we use but joining this forum has turned me on to some new tools and brands that occasionally are better than what I'm used to. So keep the ideas coming so I can keep buying tools that I don't really need! Haha.

Can't be any worse (or better) than Chinese.

If it makes you feel any better both chemical plants I worked at started using 316 flanges and piping from India, even for the scary stuff like ethylene oxide.

I think even at the pharmaceutical plant I'm at now I've seen some Indian made parts. Don't worry, we still pay thousands for small simple pieces of stainless parts from Bosch in Germany.

Back on topic, I almost bought one of those 1/4" composite ratchets also but it seemed much longer than I wanted in a 1/4" and not worth it since my 20% coupon was already used for the wrenches.

Yes made in England. I just brought them home so I haven't used them yet. First observations are they are very thin compared to my usual Wright Grips or SK offerings and I bet they would spread very easily if any kind of real force was applied to them.
I was worried when ordering them they would show up looking like **** from other old post on this forum. The finish is really nice though and the set includes all the sizes I ever use.
King **** sponsors many motorcycle racers and me being a motorcycle fanatic wanted to make a small purchase from them to show my support.
Here is their website http://www.kingdicktools.co.uk/

i been needing a pair of flush cutters for home use. how are those? china or taiwan made?

 

[90zcar]

I didn't get to use them yet. They have really good reviews online so I figured I'd try them out. I'll check the packaging again to see where they are made. I care more about the reviews then where they are made as far as China or Taiwan.....it's probably one of them

It is 1350.00 in the flier. Dealer said some pre show special or some ******** like that.

10-4 they do like to sell off a lot of truck stock before the show. So they have credit room for anything new.

I just bought a 1998 Jeep Cherokee that needs an engine. So the first order of business was to purchase tools of course.

3/8" and 1/2" but either Metric or SAE not both. I was only offered the metric version, hope to get the SAE version in August.
