Jet R12 1/4" impact ratchet. Made by Kuani (Taiwan). Nice little piece of kit especially if you like to work fast (700RPM). Sealed head with 2 grease ports is also a nice feature. Its basically a clone of the SP design made faster (and as a result is a bit louder) with a redesigned head so there is no exposed yoke. I think I still prefer my SP one more due to it being kinder on the ears.

Did some testing though and the Kuani definitely packs more torque. Topped it out at ~35 foot pounds. SP topped out at around 25 foot pounds.-14mm bolt.

Stocked up on some tools at HF.

That's a nice HF haul. Sometimes we get caught up and only compliment the high end tool hauls.

Got myself a gas soldering iron and a crimping tool this week...

 

[Caparris]

I've got the portasol version of that same one (looks identical except for orange instead of blue) and it's awesome. You'll love it.

I recently bought this Makita cordless leaf blower and am liking it a lot. What used to be a 20 minute chore and dragging a power cord around is now 10 minutes of fun.

If this is anything like my 1/2 inch you're going to get a lot of use out of it.

Enjoy!

 

[04chase]

Got these today , prevost high flow couplers. 1/4" thread 3/8" body for two of my flexzilla reels and one 3/8" thread for my flexzilla 1/2" hose reel to run thr big boys . Now finding time to install my air system is key .



That i just got in last week, 100 foot rigid 3/4" rapid air fastpipe . Ill probably run one side for now and order the exact same kit to make a loop and a 1" supply from the tank once i get a good permanent home for the compressor.

She found it wasn't edible and wouldn't play with her so she lost interest. [emoji38][emoji482]

So you could say you were....blown away?

Definitely. It a Makita XBU02Z. I already have the Makita XLT 18V battery system, so it was an easy choice and was even Direktor of Finance approved. We got a new patio and have a tree over the driveway, so this makes cleaning these up a "breeze".

No, mine would generally go on to testing it for a food source.

 

[Jim Johnstone]

New toy from the boss. Nice having a boss that actually does things for his employees.

 

[FOCUS.FREAK]

Picked these up from a place going out of business brand new paid 10.

2135TIMAX from eBay - have to wait until tomorrow morning to see if it works as it should.

Mine would smell and test it for food then lie on it and fall asleep. She's not brand particular and wouldn't care if it was Milwaukee, DeWalt or Makita.

RIP Keiko, we miss you very much.

Diesel injector socket set and injector puller/slide hammer kit.

Diesel injector socket set and injector puller/slide hammer kit.

I got that very same set last year, mainly for pulling sprinter injectors.

Yeah I know what you mean, Hopefully I won't be struggling with Vectra cdti engine injectors ever again! They do some other bosch injector adaptors for it aswell!

 

[cliftonbros89]

Picks from the past few weeks

Battery grabber/holder from Napa


Knipex electrical pliers. Very nice.

More Ernst socket rails and another wrench rack

Finally got a DeWalt 18v to 20v adaptor and a few Milwaukee 90 degree grease fitting adaptors.

I did spend £1500 quid on a hydraulic tool for renault traffics, thought id make millions lol. Then reno offered to replace the engines if the injectors seized. However the kit paid for itself and still earns me a pretty penny on the odd occasion.

Yeah there some real pricey bits of kits on the market for extracting deep seat injectors, Laser are 1 the most reasonably priced, who makes the hydraulic tool, you mentioned?

 

[Rosso]

Wee tip for that tool, when trying to get an injector out if it's seized in badly make sure the adapter is fully threaded on after a few blows, i was using mine trying to get a C4 HDI injector out and the adapter loosened off from the repeated hammering. It eventually ripped the thread clean off the end of it.

My fault but just a bit of advice.

 

[willjogervais]

my latest.... I have to say, being this is my first knipex tool, I am more than impressed. I can see many dollars being spent to update my pliers drawer. I've always wanted a set of flex ratcheting wrenches, and had made my mind up that I wanted double boxes so I didn't have the redundancy of having more open ended wrenches taking up space. The Tektons flex easier than I had hoped and the torx screw is unable to tighten them so a little disappointed there. But all things considered, they appear to be pretty good.

Do u struggle removing your adapter from your 18v tools? I have to squeeze the hell out of it and it still doesn't remove easily

Amazon stuff from the last 2 weeks.

COO Taiwan on both items.
Plier is still pretty cheap @$2.85 if interested.

A bit of a mystery with this one.

I think it maybe is a rebranded Megapro.

who are the hex sockets made by?

 

[OCD]

Shrinking hammer, dolly and some blue point tin snips,

14.4v 1/4" impact, still waiting for the 3/8 drive...

 

[McFarmer]

The driver looks to be a Megapro.

 

[K-Dog]

Saw this handy little item in a sale flyer. I figure for ten bucks if it works as described it will be a great value.

 

[Revelations]

I have a large wiring job coming up. Finally invested in some better electrician grade tools. The jury is out on the power probe solder/torch kit, untill I have time to try it out. The Klein tools are top notch. Even though the Katapults are stamped Taiwan, I doubt I will live long enough to wear them out. The Klien diag cutters are stamped USA.

The Amazon "pocket picker" has struck again..

Klien Hi leverage diag cutters
Klien Katapult wire strippers
Power Probe micro torch kit

My back ordered 1/4" Williams wrench finally showed up

And the box it was shipped in. All by itself. In classic Snap-on/Williams fashion.
