    Nah, $2.4k to Long Beach. Shipping from AU to the USA is cheap. Try it the other direction and you’ll get your heart broken.

    I used the Multi Max w a metal blade to get my encrusted caliper pin off. That and a punch and 3 lb hammer for the remnants.

    Saved an unknown amount of time and frustration...

    This is why I like to buy some of those more obscure type tools. They are always nice to have when you need them!

    Not sure if any one els has Rural King around them. But they have a nice selection of impact that you can buy individually $33 with tax for the 30mm socket and adaptor. Now to change the mower blades.

    Why not just get a 1/2" drive 30mm socket?

    I had the HF plug in model figuring I would use it once in a while...HOLY SHIT it was constant. Just upgraded to the DeWalt model since everything else is yellow and black. I use the hell out of it.

    They didn’t have any 30mm in 1/2” drive. IMHO it’s not a big deal, I don’t need this size sockets much. ( speaking of metric or standard)

    Not sure if you found a cheap outlet for paint pens, since I'm trying to catch up.

    I get my paint pens from JoeAnnes Fabrics. Cheap AF and so many colors. Even have glow in the dark.

    Kicks up far less saw dust too! Perfect for inside cuts without a ton of cleanup.

    Digital tire gauges are the best. I scooped a brand new arb digital tire gauge off a member on here a while back. It gets used a lot.

    OEMTools (got mine from Advance Auto) makes a great digital one that is very similar to Matco's and is very reasonably priced. I've found it's accurate within 0.5-1 psi of other "higher quality" gauges
