Harbor Freight tools thread.

Mine survived flying off my trailer at 45mph on a corner getting on the highway. It went inverted and landed on the the lid and slide about 5 foot into the front of a ford f150. Luckily it lost its momentum by the time it hit the ford and did no damage, even though the guy was flipping out until he realized he couldn't extort us for money....side tracking here. Long story short, the thing is durable. The lock internally broke though, so I can pull drawers with the lid down, but I see that as a feature not a failure. Only thing that came loose was the handle on the lid, just screwed it back in. It was fully loaded at the time.

 

One complaint about the Titanium 125 is that it doesn't perform well in the cold. Feed rate slows down dramatically, useless for even tack welds. Remember, if you're cold they're cold. Bring them inside.

 

Hmmm. A well known cheap tool company with a wellknown jackstand recall x2. What new and potentially dangerous product should we offer? Oh I know!

 

If you dont like HF then dont shop there, and dont spend time in this thread. Seems pretty simple to me.

 

Jesus guy, lighten up. Im there (and this thread) all the time. But you gotta recognize the comedy.

 

Toyota has had many recalls over the yrs on their vehicles, yet you still bought one. Do you recognize the comedy?

 

Agree.

 

No. But I did like the farm jack jab

 

Farm Jack isn’t new to HF either.

 

feedback on this one anybody?

 

Yup! We have one, works good for a $15 spray gun haha. Just gotta make sure you clean the damn thing IMMEDIATELY when you're done.

 

Noted thanks.

 

They’re good. Get a coupon and if you paint a lot the warranty and just swap them out every other time. If only painting once, paint and toss it.

 

I wonder if the only difference with this one is the "ergonomics" ?

 

I dunno about that. I spent a week once cleaning and rebuilding about 30 of those purple guns and had 2 that were not perfect afterwards. This was for a high school auto body classroom.

$15 doesn’t buy much, but you can get excellent results with that gun. Cleaning after use is kind of how paint equipment is meant to be used. I have a lot of experience with those. If some DIYer thinks they’re trash, they either had a bad gun, didn’t follow instructions with their paint products or should stick to rattle can.

 

You must laugh at yourself every day, since you bought a Toyota product yourself.

 

Dood, herbur fr8t is seruz biz!!!!

 

Any luck with their rivet guns? I have the cheapest one I bought a few years back, POS. I'm wondering if the quality improved. The one I have they don't sell no more.
Edit: should have lifetime warranty. I'll go ask for another one.

 

Also interested in this, I don't know where my last rivet gun went, and with as much as I use one, would love to spend as little as possible.

 

The cheapest I think is $4.99 not with lifetime warrant per the website. I'm going later and see if they give me shit about mine.
