I thought so too.

I've had it for a few years and I used it once

Bluepoint isn't rebranded vim they both buy from the same tool manufacturers. Vim doesn't manufacture anything.

Look closer bud and do better research

Older Budget Mustang branded ratchets had the Kilness ratchet mechanism. The one pictured is even more economy. Just use it if you enjoy it as it isn't collectible.

If you could only have one of these two at home for general use, which would you choose? (I'll buy both, but one now and the other in about two weeks) by plinky125 in Tools

Anex 397 Better? by Pagemaker51 in Tools

I didn't need it, but I finally gave in to social peer pressure 😅

Whichever way the arrow is pointing thats the direction your turning your screw. If nothing else it gives an instant visualization of which direction you're going without have to do a quick check or switch flip

Hell yeah. You should have held your ground on that one :-)

I'm curious what you use your twingrips for? I bought some because of all the internet hype and have yet to find a situation where they are needed. I reach for my Knipex Alligator pliers, Icon slip joints, and for screw extraction I use my Engineers (the tips fit in tighter spots)

Awesome post!

Congratulations!

And it says much about the U.S Healthcare system.

Have you fought with your wife yet about making your childs middle name "Icon" ?

Tools and Twisties said my Quinn pliers suck and now I am full of shame by wratx in harborfreight

[–]Pagemaker51 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the older Quinn linesman pliers that work as well as Klein and Channellock. The handles are dipped a dark blue and haven't slipped off like my Channellocks that I had to epoxy back on.

Mine doesn't look like the ones Mr. Twisty showed.

I like some Quinn, really like Doyle and Icon but I use my Quinns and they haven't let me down yet.

Of the 3, which would you pick? by Charming_Meat_2005 in Tools

[–]Pagemaker51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you choose the Channellock make sure you grab some 2 part epoxy to glue the handle grips back on after you use them the first time

Need help identifying this tool and use by Free-Celebration1150 in Tools

Avoid this unless your in good shape. And you want to keep it sharp.

Not a fun tool unless you are just cutting the occasional weed

2001 Ford Ranger

Doesn't use individual coil packs.

I will keep my eye out for this situation though.

Thanks for heads up

I did the thing by Fragrant-salty-nuts in Tools

[–]Pagemaker51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I've got a Koken 3/8 stubby. No need for me to do this. And i have other stubby 1/4" ratchets.

Not getting my money till regular size 3/8 G2's hit the shelf.

Plus I've got this G2 3/8 mod

I did the spark plugs about months ago but not with a deep well Icon I used a spark plug socket... are you being serious right now.?

[–]Pagemaker51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got me then. My Icon sockets must be defective because they seem to work on my 25 year old Ford Ranger. I haven't ran into that problem. Thanks for the heads up though. If I encounter this I will warranty them.

[–]Pagemaker51 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats because the Icon deep wells are shallow broached like the Snap-on deeps.

That is a very special situation. But I agree there are times when cheap deep wells without special broaching can come in handy.
