Decided to finally dye my Milwaukee tools, what is everyone's thoughts? I personally like the red but this black is KILLER! I'd love to see Milwaukee offer Black and Tan colorways in the future, also feel like that would also invite a much larger demographic but I could be wrong.
Picked up a set of the Icon 3/8 Metric Deep Impact sockets on sale. While reorganizing things I realized the impact socket sets in this drawer are all different brands.
SAE: 1/2 Deep Husky, 1/2 Shallow Westward, 3/8 Deep Matco
Metric: 1/2 Deep USA Craftsman, 1/2 Shallow Snap On, 3/8 Deep Icon, 3/8 Shallow Mac
Very handy little tool when you need to secure bolts in a tight space.
Bought these for work I have a few long handle snap on ratchets, But those stay at home as my work supplies the tools. But we don’t have long handled half-inch ratchet just Johnson bars and those ratcheting adaptors. I want to see how they’re gonna hold up against the cement truck life. Snap On prices are getting a little crazy.
On sale @$9.96

Near Mint Williams S-52 1/2" SuperRatchet. I think its beautiful but really stiff internals even after clean and lube.
Not near as smooth as my Wright double pawl 1/2" ratchet.
Capri 3/8 drive deep and shallow metric no skips 8"mag starter set i think it's called nano,3/8 HD and bit holder ratchets first vim tools I've bought civivi knife
This was my first go at a tool trailer. Built it out Ron Paulk style. 7x16 with 6’-8” interior height.
Solar panel up top with inverter and battery bank on the nose. Charging station(completely cordless jobsites)
Inventory and more inventory.
The new trailer will be much much more. Modular and multi roll with onboard generator, LI-Ion battery bank and 10kw inverter to power job sites and off grid adventures as needed.
New trailer is an inTech 22’x8.5’ with 7’ interior height. 7k Torsion axles with provisions for wet bathroom on front driver side corner because it will be nice not worrying about Porta John’s or using customer restrooms all the time.
I’ll update with the full spec sheet because it will be both heated and cooled for the multi-roll function of the trailer.
I own a small contracting business for the need and also will use the trailer for recreation.(motocross, tailgating, short camping trips and more)
Kept seeing pictures of this one around so finally went for it, can’t wait for December
Scuffed old nail beater to many, but one of my pride and joys in life to be honest. I love the facelift.
I bought this at an auction the ID tag is all beat to crap and I can’t read it. Anyone know what this is? think the ID tag says Ruman engineering the belt will be a 48 inch
Starting the year, I have a trip to Japan. I’ll spend three weeks exploring different cities, but I would like to buy some tools. Could you help me by recommending places to visit and brands to buy?
Regards
I probably own this one for close to 20 years now I bought it used, when I was in high school from my brother’s buddy. my first long handle half-inch ratchet still serving me well!
Can’t find much info about it online at all. Anyone know anything?
Works great with Vim Nora ratcheting head,ratchet adapters and Snap on ratchet head.
After a long wait, I finally pulled the trigger on a set of PB Swiss Tools, and I couldn’t be happier. The quality and aesthetics are incredible—honestly, they look so good I almost don’t want to use them!
Sadly, deals aren’t as good in europe as in the U.S., but even at full price, I feel like it was totally worth it. Excited to put them to use (even if it hurts a little to scratch them up!).

Just made the first one! We broke the ones we bought from the store so started making our own.
