Quote HistoryQuoted: Used it much? I need one of those, but the reviews kinda scared me off. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: that's good to know...I bought their little porta power and that thing is impressive for the money. The only thing that I ever bought from them that was a giant POS was the brake bleeer suction thing. It really doesn't have much vacuum. But as a brake fluid extarctor it's good lol Used it much? I need one of those, but the reviews kinda scared me off. I have the pittsburg one, and I used it to bend bumpers back on the f 150, and it's fine. seems good enough quality for shop use. |

Bought one of the submergible water pumps to drain my hot tub for cleaning. 30 min instead of two days using the drain valve and it gets a lot more water out too.
My garage is a well blended family of Harbor Freight, Snap On, Jet and Rockwell. With a lot of Milwaukee and a select few DeWalt, Makita, Ryobi and Craftsman thrown in the mix. I have a little from all. |

I have some bent up ATV and UTVs that need straightening. My Jeep winch and a huge oak tree didn't work, and I think a tractor will result in destruction, so might have to try a port a power |

Hf is probably one of the only year memberships I pay for. The inside track has paid for itself multiple times over.
I have two in my area,.one the manager will bend over to make you happy and the other one is an absolute prick. Of course the prick is on the way home. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: I am buying two things this week. the 20 tonne press and the roller cart with the single drawer for my detailing shiz. I fully expect the press to fail and yeet a part through the wall. Idk bout the new presses but I've got a hf 20t press that's bit over 20years old and it gets lot of use and works every time |

Funny thing I bought a Chicago electric 20amp 120v plasma contact cutter this morning with the 50 off coupon,
Yes could of got a plasma cutter from Amazon a lot cheaper but I needed one this morning to cut some 1/2"x2" slots in 1/8" thick 1 1/2" angle iron. Had it set on approx 15amps and 90psi and the cuts were pretty smooth, least a lot smoother than I thought they would be, and it cut fairly quick. Figure I'll save some drill bits, chopsaw and angle grinder blades using it. It's not as cool as the miller and Hobart cutters I've used, but it was a hell of a lot cheaper than them and I think it'll work fine for diy metal work. |

I bought an Indian (dot) made magnet the other day from them the other day. I'm going to use it to pull out nails from the ashes. I don't want to dump nails on the ground and get flats or some animal to get tetanus.

The icon looks nice, but I have zero experience with their products and more importantly how well do their sockets and ratchets work?
ETA: I don't know why I want this, but I think I do - 24k ratchet for $60, I still love my Snap-Offs  |
