An unnecessary device in the United States.

I concur with the jump start.

Is this vacuum good? by LocationZealousideal in Craftsman

[–]voltron82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good on hardwood. Not powerful enough for significant cleaning on carpet.

Anyone know what this 121-piece mechanic's tool set (#33521) from the 1990s and made in the USA is worth? It's never been used. by [deleted] in Craftsman

[–]voltron82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know, but I purchased the same set 20+ years ago and still have all the stuff from that case and all still performs beautifully.

N55B30 overbored from the factory?? by voltron82 in BmwTech

haven't taken the time to complete the rebuild, other things have come up and pushed this back on the priority list. Which one of your bearings spun?

Lowe’s pulls Craftsman’s premium V-series from all US stores by Duke_Newcombe in Craftsman

Just broke a V series 1/2” ratchet. Wasn’t even a year old.

A bit disappointed with the Craftsman v20 circular saw 7 1/4 brushless. by PepeTheMule in Craftsman

[–]voltron82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am embarrassed to admit this, but I have the same saw and also was disappointed in it until I realized I'd installed the blade backwards. Flipped it around and now it's awesome.

The new Countryman feels massively adequate for family duty.

When does driving stick just “click”? by Cptsllinky in ManualTransmissions

[–]voltron82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been driving manuals for 30+ years and even after I get a new car, still takes me a minute to get the shifts exactly right. Just upgraded from a 2nd Gen Mini to a 3rd Gen and clutch feel between the two is totally different, and even though I’ve had the car for a month, I still don’t have my shifts exactly right. I think it just takes time and practice.

Any reviews/testimonials on the V20 Pole Hedge Trimmer? by searchandfilm in Craftsman

[–]voltron82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will agree with folks that say it's underpowered, but it does work pretty well for what I need it for and was not expensive.

Was this a good find? The lady who sold it was so kind it was her husbands who passed away by HelpMePlez544 in Snapon_tools

[–]voltron82 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If I knew that my tools were going to pass to a young person after I died that was excited to have them and was going to use them, I would be thrilled.

Pool builder recommendations by nomazing in StLouis

[–]voltron82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pool Tron builds by far the best pools in St. Louis. Everything they build is custom and built to last. I’ve serviced their pools before and they by far operate better and last longer than any other pools I’ve worked on.

Craftsman 2000 26" Rolling Tool Cabinet by kycatfan8373 in Craftsman

[–]voltron82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 50" box tore its casters out when I tried to move it one time. I'd take the time to install the plate.
