Hi, I don't want to make you angry or sad, but I know something more about the Baum brand. It is the cheapest and lowest quality sort of tools, sold in "Globus" supermarkets here in Czech Republic. For the first look, all the Baum tools seem to be made in Germany and they surely look cool. But for closer look they are the biggest **** from China I ever seen. Last week in Globus I saw Baum combination pliers, side-cut pliers, adjustable wrenches, open-end wrenches and many more. The quality of all these tools was really horrible. In fact that all the pliers were well (too much) oiled, there were visible rust spots on most of pieces, pliers jaws didn't fit together on every piece, adjustable wrenches couldn't be from steel because of their suspicious lightweight, and they have big jaws play. Only the open-end wrenches seemed to be normal, but I would never spend 1 cent for any Baum tool after seeing the rest of their production. Simply it's typical "like-german", very low quality product made in China. I'm sorry for my opinion :headscrat but run away from any Baum tool!

No Worries! Thanks for the help, and glad to know now. The equipment is German made (control valves for heating/cooling systems), and come with both Hazet and/or Baum tools.

I'll just make sure I get more of the Hazet stuff!

Thanks again! :thumbup:

Thanks! I like 'em too, have to come to the internet to find anyone else that appreciates them...

well, i haven't found somebody who works with them and not like'em too... :thumbup:
(can say the same about Stahlwille's wrenches too though...)

want!
i really want a set of 600 N as well. I'm still trying to decide between hazet and stahwille for combination wrench. I wish those brands weren't so expensive in the USA. Still worth it though.

Does anyone know if those brands are available in Mexico? I have an address I can ship them to down there, and I know they can get some stuff from europe that you can't get in the states...like a bmw 135 wagon :drool:

I can ship Hazet to you anywhere in the world whatever it is. Just shipped a Hazet 179-1 to Osaka last week and a screwdriver set to the Faroer Islands, that's about the larges and smallest item available. You can look up some references on this board as well.

Plus you pay only the German price plus the actual shipping costs and nothing more.

:drool::drool::drool:
I'm still saving up for the next purchase, and am still undecided on the particular sets I want to get. You can definitely expect a PM from me in the future though :thumbup:
Is there any place online that I can look up pricing that is similar to your prices? .de sites are ok too, ich kann verstehen ein bisschen :)

redface.gif

but at 90€ it's a bit steep...
non.gif

i'll try to get it down to a more reasonable price!
lol.gif

95.- for the last NOS swiss made Perles tool is not too much.... :) ;) ...
....if you don´t want it..... :)

which one?
5E.gif

guess :)

free, a gift from a Würth construction rep that had a bit of work done on his bike
but it has a default in the jaws, i cut *one* 1,5mm copper wire with it and a small chunk of chrome popped off...

solid copper wire ?

another broken Zebra/Felo screwie

i think they have some kind of lifetime warranty

oh, got this one too somewhere, really panzer-heavy...

Monte, since you've got a better eye than me, could you please explain main differences you've noticed between Reiland's pump system and the Pressol one you showed some weeks/month ago ?

made some pics of the different pumps:

Hey Monte, I have a favor to ask. Can you take a pic of an equivalent Hazet and Stahlwille deep offset box end wrench? I am wondering if the Hazet will work for top strut nuts in my cars. I know the Stahlwille will work, but the Hazet has a 21x22mm, which is what I need.

This is a similar application:

i must confess that i don´t own any Hazet deep offset wrenches, but i will look in the garage if someone has one. Can take a couple of days.

Tool that apparently Hazet has discontinued:

[ig]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v198/Phang/DSCN6103.jpg[/img]

Is that a CR-V, or Moly socket? Strikes me as something that could easily be made with a nice thick wall, and a cut off wheel.:)

Smart looking tool, but maybe a bit weak to torque the nut to 80Nm?!

The OEM socket (Volkswagen/Audi and Porsche) should be on the market somewhere, try german ebay? Or ask Moose, he should know. I have the Porsche one, can give u the partno if interested.

Otherwise it works perfectly as Altec suggested, to cut open a standard deep socket, have done a couple of those for tightarsed teams... :D

Monte - Shame on you! Get a nice set of 620s (edit: 630s!)! Actually, you prefer Stahlwille wrenches, don't you?

Altec - easier solution: I went out and purchased a cheap O2 sensor socket. :)

not sure if i'll take that one or a Flex... and i've done some internal cleaning on the Bosch, some grease and lots and lots of toothbrushing in all the nooks and crannies and it looks like most of the noises are gone now... :thumbup:
you don't want me to sell a poor old GPO 12 E, do you?

Almost tempted to buy the T72 and the THNF72. :drool: :D
Are those prices with or without tax?

isn't Norway as an out of EU state, a zero-VAT destination for stuff send from within the EU like Switzerland is? :confused:

Double post and typo with the iPhone. Should be 630 series. Drats!

No, I bought a cheap O2 sensor socket and a cheap spark plug socket. :). Still might have to get some deep offset wrenches.

A friend checked and on a 17mm, Stahl and Hazet were offset the same.
