I have two of those callipers. One at work and one at home and they are excellent. I like the digital screen because I can take pictures of the measurements for reference and it is much easier to read than a dial on a picture.



It's amazing just how much different feeling they are from my other 2 pairs of cheaper callipers. Pricey, but for me worth it.

Second paint gun of the week,although this one was unplanned after my priming gun took a ****, and now i have a US made Sharpe fx3000 with a 1.8 tip, and it will split its duties as a flake gun also. $130 from amazon prime, but this was the second order this week that was delayed and they refunded me $60 of it!

I'll say it. You ****!

I've wanted both of those for a while. Especially the breaker bar.


Thank you! I haven't come across good deals like that on Craigslist for. A long time. It's been stale lately. See. That this morning and jumped right on it.
The sn36 breaker bar is only a year old. 2015 date code
Air hammer 2014 date code

Got this sweet fan. Seen photos of it on Instagram. Its small and the magnetic base is a nice feature.

Picked this up for a good deal once I realized all my tools were not going to fit in my hf44. It needs 1 new caster but it's other wise solid. I'm not a big fan of Mac but this cart seems pretty solid.

Well, if anyone ever had a similar need I found the casters on my old masterhand cabinet from TSC are identical, if not a little beefier to those on the Mac cart.

Does anyone have a recommendation for some quality casters? I don't need anything like the snap on casters with suspension but something a little beefier that would roll around a very dirty floor would be great. I'm going to be using the cart in a heavy equipment shop where the floor is gonna be pretty rugged at times.

Here is my tool haul from the last 6 weeks:

Sears.com:

Ever since I purchased a pair of Wolverine mid-height steel toe boots, I've been getting from Sears' SYWR program great coupons and points back. I have purchased the following tools:

MOB Peddinghaus 17 piece, 3/8" Drive, 6 Point Socket and Ratchet Set (Made in Taiwan)

Before purchasing this set, I researched the company (LINK) and found a section under "Group" that discusses how the current company was formed through acquisitions. I thought the set I purchased would be manufactured in France. It is a nice set for the price. The chrome on the pieces is nicely finished. The 72 tooth ratchet is a low profile design with a unusually textured grip. I like the addition of the 6" locking extension and breaker bar in the set. The attention paid to the design of the case is amazing with the foam cut outs of the individuals pieces, the individual design elements; and the spring attached, steel case clasps.
























Knipex Angled Cycle Pliers (Made in Germany)

These pliers are handy for holding a hex fastener tight against a grinding wheel or in low profile situations.







Knipex Spark Plug Pliers (Made in Germany)





Knipex Angled Bolt Cutters (Made in Germany)








Frankstools

Frank does not stock the KTC AD101 electrical disconnect tool on his web store. If you e-mail him (LINK), he will inform you of its current price and time it will take to get a minimum KTC order in place. I paid for this tool slightly above $49.00 last June and took 3 weeks to arrive from Frank.













Good Deals at the Local Hardware Stores:

Bosch Jigsaw Blades (Made in Switzerland)



Bosch Multi-Oscillating Tool Blades (Made in Switzerland)

A few new things from the past couple of weeks.

First, decided to get a proper set of torque wrenches:

Next, my girlfriend got me this new drill/driver set to replace my current one:

Finally, decided I really wanted a set of the Vessel drivers with the composite wood handle. This was mostly just because since I already have a nice set of Williams as my goto drivers:

That's all for now...

The yellow does look ****, and yellow and blue make green, maybe, just maybe............

They need to offer the Strouty pack on their website, one of each hammer, would save so much time each time they bring out a new colour.
I have been resisting for a while but I like yellow. The shipping was extremely expensive and then there was the £85 of import duties on top for those 5 hammers. Which was why I didn't buy until now. Probably could have got Snap On ones for less of ebay, but I wanted some more TC.

Wow, I love your new Blue Point toy and that mallet is a thing of beauty.

Here is my latest arrival. A new old stock set of Vaco screwdrivers. I got them for like $18 shipped off ebay. I used them for the first time today helping a friend hang some curtain rods in her new house. They really feel nice in the hands with their grooves, and the driver heads fit nicely in fasteners.

I love the old school color -- sort of a light orange/tangerine. These will be my go to screwdrivers. I was using some Pittsburgh Pro's. These Vaco's are way nicer.

£76 new. The snap on guy wanted £80 for a set of burrs! So I got some cheaper ones for now.

Only if you made it with the die grinder....:thumbup:


Of course [emoji12]

That looks exactly like the sioux die grinder I just got, but the sioux is red instead of blue.


Interesting, any pictures dude?
