Harbor Freight tools thread.

I want to get a grease gun

 

Picked up my son a Xmas gift the
TITANIUM UNLIMITED 200 Professional Multiprocess Welder with 120/240V. He has really started enjoying welding.

 

Just a heads up today only.... Use it on something rarely goes on sale that you eyeing

 

Anyone else not able to log into your account in the HF website?

 

No issues here, but I just have a regular account. Not Insider track or whatever

 

Just a basic account here too. Tried using the forgot password button too and that didn't help either. Gonna try again and if not I might have to see if there's a number I can call.

 

Works now. Weird.

 

Never had automatic wire strippers before. Considering getting some this weekend to take advantage of the free bucket coupon.

Anyone got any preference on the different styles? Self adjusting or not? The Quinn self-adjusting seemed pretty nice when I looked at them a few weeks ago

 

I have an irwin version of those quinn type and I wouldnt go back to something where to need to select the gauge

 

Thats kinda what I figured

 

I need wheel dollies to move a project car around the garage, any complaints about the HF ones? They’re steel plate and casters, can’t imagine having any problems…

 

While I dont have harbor freight ones these are the two styles I would buy, they each have a use. These are also a very nice style for when you have extremely limited space.

 

I deal mostly with 12-22AWG I prefer the style that Joey suggested. That being said I just purchased these. And I am very satisfied with them for the cost of $5.

I have had a lot of contractors come through in the past 60 days at work and my standard bypass wire strippers have disappeared. I don’t care to buy $20+ tools to just to have them walk off anymore.

 

I've got plenty of HF tools I use often, but I can't recommend much of their air accessories with the exception of their fittings.

Needed to use my inflator with gauge recently only to find the needle "stuck". I tried tapping it gently, shaking it a bit, running air through it, and finally hitting it on the concrete and it wouldn't budge. Sucks because it still pushes air.



Gauge broke in my hands easily when I tried to unscrew it.





Mind you, this thing has never been dropped, abused, nothing. It sits hanging on a hook against the wall and has been used only a handful of times (still had the plastic on the face).

Their desiccant filter was even worse. The plastic holding tank for their beads break just opening her up after using it for a few weeks.

Pictures from last year.

 

picked up the Hurcules cordless bandsaw Sunday. I only stopped into HF to by an extra battery. The battery was $80. They had a deal buy a battery and charger and get a tool free. They even stacked the 15% coupon onto the deal.

Out the door for $106. Battery, saw and charger for that was a no brainer.

I like how the saw has an LED light.

 

Finally snagged one of these, they've been out of stock for a long time in-store and weren't even available to order online



Already used it earlier; T20 torx for replacing a headlight

 

Fuck! I've been looking for one of those for 10 years!

 

Looks like the local HF has them in stock and I've got $15 in rewards to burn. Maybe if a 15% coupon comes out for Black Friday.

 

20 years of being my go-to. That’s less than $1 per year! (Just sharpened and painted)

 

I've been searching hi and low for a used series 2 bottom box ( 44 x 22 ) in the shiny red color. I picked up a mint condition top box in June with the intention of buying a new series 3 lower box, until I found out that the top box won't nest into the lower box. ( it's about 1/8" too wide)
