    I would've spent no less that $250 on doing that.

    I've got issues when it comes to spending money at home improvement stores.

    Looking at tap and die sets. Any recommendations?

    Is it better to buy a big set or just the individual sizes you need?

    I don't expect to use it a ton but I don't want one-time-use junk.

    Only 2 ton engine hoist at Harbor Freight had been dropped off a shelf and the box was shredded. I decided against purchasing it because I couldn't tell if all the hardware was there. Next shipment is August 22nd they said. I picked up the load balancer and engine stand today still.

    I've used Irwin taps and HF dies

    hF dies worked fine for cleaning up existing hardware but I'm not sure I'd use them to cut new threads lol

    Shes pretty soft, her underbelly is a bit more coarse but I think that's because it's mostly the undercoat. Her face and neck are 10/10 fluff

    When the ac compressor clutch locked up on my tacoma it sounded like the meanest burnout for 3 seconds before the belt broke

    I bought the SAE and Metric big sets from HF and they've been lifesavers aside from the times it didn't include the thread pitches I needed

    Recently inherited some ancient (craftsman?) sets that filled in some blanks but mostly gave redundancies

    If you need a wide variety I would just get the sets, you'll spend way more buying an individual set every time
