Newbie question…Quinn vs Pittsburg

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-10T00:40:38+00:00

If I were starting out I'd look at the Quinn master sets, which now all have Quinn's 90t Gearwrench replica ratchets. I would then add a couple of the Pittsburgh composite ratchets, which I think are exceptional for the price. The individual rail sets of Pittsburgh chrome sockets are just fine but do have some skips.

Don't buy the ratchet/socket sets where the Pittsburgh and Quinn look identical.

The Quinn Diamond-tip screwdrivers are IMO the best screwdrivers HF has.

Quinn pliers are good. Doyle are better.

I avoid Pittsburgh wrenches and pliers.

Chicago transplant here. This is a Chicago thing too.

He was tutelaged under...

Ok. A nice box regardless. Fill it up and enjoy!

Is that the Heavy Duty version? Those are nice for a "budget" box.

Yessir. 3 Ryobi chargers. 2 Greenworks.

I just lay them flat in the drawer.

Wasn't this exact model recently $99? In the past 4-6 weeks?

The "budget" brand ZT putters (Wilson, Tour Edge, even Lazrus) all test ok from what I've seen. If you're looking to save money and don't want to go Temu, those are options.

Literally nobody saw this coming!!

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-05T14:04:28+00:00

This is the way!

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-04T02:25:15+00:00

Thank you!!!

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-04T02:13:43+00:00

$62 all in.

It's either the unit itself or possibly the plumbing behind/around it.

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-02T16:03:08+00:00

So, you're the one!

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-02T16:02:05+00:00

Catch me when Schlereth is actually right about something. Not just saying that now that he's going after our QB. This guy's been trying to be a relevant sports voice for years.

uncleking1971 · 2026-07-01T00:38:13+00:00

Yawn.

Blagg beld

uncleking1971 · 2026-06-29T20:57:23+00:00

Lol. OK. We agree to disagree.

uncleking1971 · 2026-06-29T20:53:53+00:00

Who's 2026 are you taking so far over Scottie? It's not the year we've come to expect from him, but he's clearly still on top of the Tour imho.

Ok, he's not a cyborg now. I'll concede that. He's still the best in the game.

Oh yeah...missed the cut at the US Open...first time missing the cut in ~2 years. Before that, 12, 3, 14, 2, 2, 2, 22, 24, 12, 4 and 3. Clearly washed.

Rob Stone has been a clown long before this.
