    The 1/4” one just came out a couple of weeks ago. My local store hasn’t had it in stock yet, but happened to be by the one about 45 minutes away and saw they had it in stock. Only two left when I got there, too.

    I used to it paint some wood boxes, works great for the price. Just be sure to dilute properly and clean it after use, you will be happy!

    Got my project finished finally. Weather has been windy so I rolled 1/2 a gal. Yesterday I used the sprayer to finish, which allowed coverage between the fence slats. Worked well for $50.

    Can you or someone else please explain the appeal for a gold plated icon ratchet? I dont understand the appeal of the gold plated snap on tools either.
    Sorry not trying to yuck your yum, just do not comprehend the appeal.

    Shits and giggles, mostly. I think they're funny and just hang them on the wall. Zero practical use for a gold ratchet haha

    Has anybody tried out the rolling seat yet? Was doing a lot of squatting and kneeling with my front end rebuild and figure this would have come in handy.

    I used one this weekend. Definitely going to be my next jack. A little annoying that they don’t have swivel caster on the back though. That locking handle thing doesn’t make up for it.

    Were they plentiful enough to be on the sales floor, or did the store just happen by an alignment of the planets to have one in the backroom?

    I was actually planning on making a plaque for my dad and mounting the wrench on it- he’s a retired mechanic. While he didn’t teach me everything I know, he taught me not to be afraid to take shit apart and see if I can fix it. Kind of a gag, but also one of those things he can hang in his garage and just know that I made it for him.
