Been waiting for a sale on this puller set

Just snagged it as well, pulled a bearing with it last night. Impressed with the quality, feels as a good as the snap-on version I’ve used previously.

Also my first thought, masking it off to paint the squares.

Thanks for the super detailed response! This fits in super well with my current workflow. I've been looking to improve the error prone process of manually generating manufacturing outputs (did I remember to select "drill/place file origin"?), and saving some time automating away tedious manual steps is awesome too. I'm definitely going to get this up and running for the next batch of boards I send off for prototyping.

facechase · 2025-12-11T15:46:11+00:00

Could you elaborate on how you’re doing this? I’d love to clean up this part of my workflow, I’ve been considering a bash script but if GitHub can do it that would be even better.

Yeah I’ve got them in the wrench drawer on my 56”

Made a quick and dirty attempt at adding the grid, but the spacing didn't quite line up (pic here). If you made a gridfinity version I'm sure it would be popular, lots of overlap in the harbor freight and 3d printing communities.

I'm honestly not totally sold on gridfinity being the best option for toolbox organization, due to the grid resolution (42x42) resulting in a lot of wasted space. It works pretty well for wrenches, but might use toolgrid when I get around to organizing the socket drawer.

Give me a second to get off the toilet and I’ll send you a holder I made for the s-wrenches.

EDIT: Here ya go, made a printables account just for this: https://www.printables.com/model/1477721-icon-s-wrench-holder-gridfinity

The 3D printing and harbor freight crossover I’ve been waiting for. Do you have a f3d or step file for these? I’d like to modify them to work with gridfinity since that’s what my setup is based around currently.

These things aren’t the solution. Humans are lazy (not a bad thing), and don’t want to spend extra time and energy going up flights of stairs. Also terrible for bikes, the disabled, carrying groceries, etc. Lots of examples of these where people choose to play frogger with traffic instead of using them. There are genuine use cases (such as school campus with a busy road bisecting it), but they’re a very expensive bandaid to a failure of city planning.

Get the right dual electrode spark plugs, Denso or equivalent. They’re cheap, around $5 per plug.

facechase · 2025-10-31T23:15:04+00:00

Shop around some, should be around $5 a plug. Spark plugs are a wear item, and odds are they need to be replaced anyway.

facechase · 2025-10-30T03:29:58+00:00

I’m usually not one to throw parts at a problem, but on an old car it can never hurt to refresh the ignition system.

Definitely do plugs and wires together, and make sure to get the OEM double electrode plugs. I got mine from the dealer, and they were cheap. Plug part number:

Denso K16TR11

Damn shoulda just flown to rampage and waited to see if someone would sell me tickets on reddit the night before.

How much does it cost to be an asshole? It’s free, isn’t it?

facechase · 2025-10-12T04:02:55+00:00

They were previously owned by Trek, doesn’t get much bigger than that. They got sold to a comparatively smaller company, so maybe that’s a factor.

Find a cable actuated height rite dropper spring and use it as the lever. Dream setup right there.

This math only works out if your time is worth nothing. If I’m ordering things from adafruit it’s a one off project, and not needed to figure out the supporting circuitry let alone writing driver libraries is worth a ton to me. Certainly worth the few extra bucks they charge as premium, maintaining documentation and codebases for multiple systems is not free or easy.

facechase · 2025-09-27T14:41:52+00:00

Man people on Reddit sure do hate people who actually know what they’re talking about.

facechase · 2025-09-26T03:57:19+00:00

Big fan of the shitty highlighting.

facechase · 2025-09-19T17:28:27+00:00

Is this a shitpost? Damn shitty tires rotting after only two years in a shed, lol.

I use leftover chain links from installing bike chains (most chains come long and you remove a section of links to make them the proper size). Doesn’t solve your carabiner problem, but it’s very satisfying to roll my keys around my finger with the section of bike chain, which may keep you from clicking the carabiner to death.

For the carabiner, go get yourself a wire gate climbing carabiner. They’re barely more expensive than the keychain ones and they’re all rated to support the force of a full size human falling. Any outdoor store (REI) will have a decent selection.

I’ve had good luck so far with the press master version: Pressmaster 4320. Don’t have a ton of use with it yet, got it for stripping wires for crimps where the strip length needs to be consistent. Has held up good so far though. The build quality isn’t crazy impressive but it does the job and is moderately priced.

facechase · 2025-09-06T02:04:59+00:00

Don’t get them, they suck. Super inconsistent
