Garage Shop: Tools

Jesus, that thing better be heated/cooled and give massages for that price!

 

Saw this, while searching for this Gates Radiator Flush Kit, from Walmart. Seems like a pretty deep discount from other prices found online.

I was thinking many happy endings

 

That's like Jay Leno Garage Style on Steroids.

Roller chairs have only been functional for me on bikes. Got the HF roller cabinet/chair combo and it's been clutch on the current project I have.

 

Agreed, I use a small roller for motorcycle work which is primarily what Im doing when in garage, never used it when working on a car/truck. I also have a tall roller for a computer seat at my work desk in garage, that also gets used for drinking beers and when Im real lazy sometimes Ill sit at workbench on the tall roller and putz around with whatever part is on the bench. If those seats were closer to $200 each I would have a tall and short roller ordered. Im still on the fence at this point as that is a shit ton of money for a garage seat.

 

ha I have a drinking beer/computer/bench seat too but it’s not a roller. Just a fancy looking stool that I got on fb marketplace for like $15. I’m pretty thrifty with seating. That tool box seat isn’t that comfy for long sits I found. I’m sure I could prob beef the seat up, but the functionality is awesome because I keep a tool set in there specifically setup for bike stuff so I don’t need to dig in the box box/get up from the seat.

 

In the garage I have a big wooden rocking chair that was on the side of the road with a free sign.
I don't use it when working on anything but I can nap in it quite well.

 

Sounds like a good beer drinking chair

 

Simple mod to the HF jack to make operation a little simpler and more efficient, no more dicking with the handle to adjust the jack release


These bags were on sale for $10 at HF, fits my rear axle press tool and all the accessories perfectly and will hopefully prevent me from losing any of the adapters

 

I’ve been a Ryobi guy for a long time, repaired them as a job 20 years ago, just just always a decent tool at an affordable price, been needing a powered ratchet, the Ryobi version is to bulky for what I do, so…. This may end badly(expensive turn over)
I’ve had a Milwaukee Magnum Hole Shooter in my tool box for years, ever really needed any of the more expensive stuff…it may change….this arrives this weekend

 

I've been telling myself my ingersoll air ratchet will suffice for everything I need

 

Get the Milwaukee. Love mine

 

Ive waisted a few air ratchets over the years, I had a small body 3/8” IR I loved but I shucked the planetary drive in it a couple times, even with constant lube and cleaning. Haven’t had one for a few years.
My 244 IR impact wore out after 25 years, bought a HF Earthquake. It still does well, but battery allows more freedom and I’m tired of listening to the compressor in my van run all the time.
My wrists and hands have had enough of manual tools as well. My generator is almost silent ( Equivalent of a Preditor 2200 inverter) and runs a fan as well as the charger(s).

 

Coincidentally sold my 6' Werner last night within 20 minutes of posting it for sale on marketplace.

I have the harbor freight version of this adjustable ladder. Can't beat it. Makes all other ladders unnecessary.

 

Pretty sure I have the Harbor Freight version of this ladder as well, I love it. I use it all the time.

 

I have the 20+ years old "Gorilla" brand version. Fukka is heavy with a capital T. That one is 40#'s. Hmmm.......shit.........I'm old...........ladders. Fock.

 

Finally caved and picked one up for the Labor Day sale.
