    Not bad for the Mig Max. I'd take it if I didn't have one already. Plus I'm far from Phoenix, lmao.

    They also have good deal on 1 Vulcan aluminum Spool gun. Was about to buy it but realised its proprietary to Vulcan and won't work with my ESAB.

    Swivel head socket wrench is awesome, if you don't beat on the green rubber handle. Allows me to get at angles i wouldn't normally be able to achieve. The Daytona 3ton low pro jack has treated me well but wait for a good price, it is worth the wait... 8 mil blue gloves are rugged enough for this machinist. Impact socket have not failed, but most the screw drivers tend to bend if you use them as a chisel haha!

    Went to HF to get some $10 crows feet and spent $250. Couldn’t resist the Icon ratchet wrenches even though I didn’t have a coupon. They’re nice!

    Don’t worry, I realized I forgot the dust cover 2 seconds after taking this pic, lol.

    I doubt they will do coupons for the Icon stuff, at least for a while. I've been keeping a close eye on it myself, my socket set is hobbled together out of various brands/sets. I think a full set of Icon sockets is in my future.

    That’s from a prior purchase. Today
    I got the Icon wrenches, some crows feet wrenches, Hercules blower, security bit set, Doyle pliers and a ball joint fork. And a free tarp!

    I recently purchased a set of 4 gear pullers. Have used them 3 or 4 times and the low grade coating on the screw or internal thread is shedding like dandruff off uncle Buck. May be worth it to go with better quality, unless you can handle the flakes.

    I could be mistaken but I think I’ve seen some 10% no brand exclusions coupons that can be used with Icon hand tools.

    I’ve used both and I got tired of having to constantly fuck with my android stuff to keep it running right. New OS may have solved that but since I’ve invested into the Apple ecosystem I now understand why there are so many loyal and enthusiastic users. Everything just works and being able transition directly from mobile to desktop, and vice versa makes a huge difference to me.
