[bchee]

you know what's not apparent in this thread is how much time is actually spent SEARCHING for the best tool deals. You may have purchased only 3 items recently, but spent countless HOURS on craigslist, ebay, tooltopia, amazon, sears, toolwarehouse, flea markets, pawn shops, slickdeals, etc, etc, etc

That is, of course, if you're like me and try to find the best bargain

 

[speed bump]

In the last couple of weeks.
Toptul 1/2" drive rotohead ratchet for a friend of mine birthday
Toptul 8" heavy duty dykes to see if they are any good.

If I could pick the tools that I wish I had bought in the last few weeks. I want what fatrod got.

Nice find. Looks like a JD2? If so those are great benders.....I have been looking at one on CL that has been used once and converted to elec/hydro, just expensive

Yep, it's a JD2. Cost over here was $1k with only one former! Would love the hydro but that's something for the future!

Oh dang, did not realize you were in the UK, I can drive to their place, its just over the border in TN in about 45 min, so save on shipping.
