Harbor Freight tools thread.

Speaking of having lots of tools....

I have an older Craftsman tablesaw I'll be putting up for sale soon. The switch was relocated to a foot pedal, and it all works as expected.
If anyone's interested (and local), let me know!
Roseville/Colfax area near Sacramento.

 

A great way to remove most Toyota plastic clips when the back of the clip is accessible with zero damage every time.

 

A Snap On test light.


A killer Snap On center punch for sheet metal. This will make a better hole for a sheet metal screw than a drill bit can do.

 

I don't know what it is called, but it's awesome.

 

Harbor Freight fake uni-bits. These things blast through sheet metal quick!

 

The easiest to use and the fastest working jack I've ever used and it's mechanical.

 

Contour gauge.

 

A modified 3/8" steel fuel line. Push it through most grommets by hand to make a hole for a wire in the grommet at the firewall. Push it through with a hammer if needed, it'll hold it fine. Keep the fuel line in the grommet and put the wire through the fuel line. Pull the fuel line out of the grommet. The wire is through the grommet now, the punch cut the grommet and didn't put a round hole in the grommet, the grommet flexes back to its normal shape and is very close to a perfect seal as is. This one has always been bent like that.


Grommet goes here.


Hand or a hammer goes here.

 

The shortest ratcheting stubby I have ever seen. I made that little steel shield a loooong time ago and the back of it is solid so that whatever tip you're using won't fall through the wrench. Btw, you can cut the tip and get an even shorter ratcheting stubby.

 

I can't complain about my $14.99 torque wrench.

 

I've used them on 1/8 plate no problem.

 

Has anybody seen this one any cheaper? This is the 11Amp one.

 

That's the best online coupon.

Thanks

 

I bought the 1/2" drive version for the same price. I checked it's accuracy against 2 other known to be accurate torque wrenches and when the HF clicked at 85 ft lbs it was actually 83. I used it for torquing down boat trailer lug nuts because it got beat up a lot doing that and I didn't want to beat up the better torque wrench that I had.

Correction: mine was $20.

 

How's the quality on the Mauer impact tools? Was going to go with Herciles but I guess they're switching out all their tools and the store doesn't have any.....

 

They go through Toyota frames like butter. My go to.

 

Good to know. Ty

 

any recommendations for a soldering iron? i been looking for one but not sure if i should with the old school one with a plug or if the wireless one is worth it. i really need it for light electrical jobs/ wiring, etc
