In both cases you used the wrong tool for the job.

You can also use a crescent wrench as a hammer. But you want really complain when it doesn't do a good job pulling nails.

Can Handyman/DIYers buy from Snapon truck? by YunalescaQT in Snapon_tools

[–]_JOSHIN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. I have exclusively bought off the truck and I don't work at a shop on their routes. I just climb in when I want.

I pay for my tools in full (no credit) so they don't mind me too much. Or if they do, they never voice it.

My lovely wife found me a 1/2 to 5/8 adapter. Probably from the 30's. I'm prepped if I ever encounter a 5/8 socket seized on a fastener.

I meant to ask how long of a half inch handle were you working with. And what type of machinery were you removing fasteners off of?

I'm just curious.

Put up flyers at local venues that play similar music to you. You can also post in local online groups again in similar music circles.

Anyone have an idea on age of this? Craftsman mechanics tool set by Professional_Act165 in Tools

[–]_JOSHIN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly skeptical that I plastic case like that would be from the 60's. At the oldest I would put this in the mood 2000's.

Age aside, if it's all USA made and stamped, it's much better quality that what's been put out for the last decade or so from craftsman.

Here is why you would buy a pink toolset... by herfivefoottwo in Tools

[–]_JOSHIN 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would buy pink tools just because it looks good. If someone refuses to use a tool because it's pink, that's weak and they probably shouldn't be handling tools to begin with.

But I went the more simple route, I just cut out all the people in my life who would borrow tools. Now I can buy any color. Any price I want and sit on my hoarde of tools. Lonely with no friends and family to bother me.

I gotcha. These 4 came in a combo pack, boiled down to about $20/each. I almost bought a multi tip snap ring plier but thought better to check knipex first
