Harbor Freight tools thread.

Gun 2 works as intended. It’s a
Lot heavier than expected but does have a strap. Pulling the trigger already beats squeezing the handle.

 

Eh...I mentioned that lol

You hitting driveway stains with it?

Wife's car has been leaking lately, so I'll have to rectify that one of these days but our driveway is only 2 years old so the oil stains really stand out.

 

Sometimes, my driveway is cracked and needs replaced so it's not a concern. Pressure washer might remove chunks.
You may need to pretreat with a mild degreaser first if you are looking to restore to a like new slab. Bike Brite works really good, but I usually just throw down some oil soak and sweep it off a few days later.

 

Yep, mentioned that in my initial post! Many different detergents to use so I'll figure that one out.

Was more curious about consistent pressure, as well as longevity.

But I'll check that stuff out, thanks for the suggestion.

What model you running? There are so many different types.

 

i got a ryobi electric last year. has worked well for me the 2 times i've used it .

 

I’ve had this one for 4 or 5 years now I think, no complaints. I like how it shuts off when you let the trigger go and doesn’t keep on running like the gas powered ones do. I’d like to find a 10’-15’ extension though for cleaning the house/gutters.

 

I have run a ryobi electric for right at 10 years now. Zero issues so far. Works great to wash cars and the house. I have a gravel driveway, because I'm poor, so not used for that.

I will say, in my younger years I did many driveways for extra money and powdered dish detergent works great to remove oil stains. Make a slurry with it, scrub with a brush and the blast off!

 

1600psi, 1.2gpm, like the one posted above.
Bought it pre-covid, use it several times every summer.

 

Checking in here for stuff to buy.

My truck won the "Truck Of The Month" competition this April on the F150 Forum and will be getting a $50 HF gift card soon

 

To add to this, it's cheaper buying and cutting up a 12 gauge extension cord than it is settling with a shorter, thinner gauge cable



Cut off some 8' from it since I don't need the whole 25', but it's wired up now

Figure I could just add a male plug and use it as an extra extension cord for anything that doesn't warrant a really long one

 

A couple years ago I needed 6 or 8 gauge or something for the connection from an inverter to a battery, so I bought a set of jumper cables and cut them up from harbor freight for half the cost of buying bare cable. Worked great.

 

Yeah, the clamps on those things are garbage but for the price it's a great deal for a heavy gauge cable itself

 

After you've used it a while, please let us know what you think.

 

From Reddit, here is the list of the full 10 days of daily sales whatever they're doing right now:

 

for those not on the emails. a decent sale tomorrow:

 

Jumped all over this deal!

 

Thinking hard about the dual fuel 5000w inverter generator.

 

Anyone try the Foam Cannon with Father's Day comming I'm thinking of it as a gift

 

The sneaky bastards sent me a coupon today. Buy a battery and charger and get a free Hercules tool...up to $100 value. The grease gun is $139... I think.

They know get you in the door and the extra $40 bucks will get spent.

 

There is nothing special about it. You can buy the same thing for $20 on Amazon. It's just a resivior with a nozzle attached to it. Plug it into your pressure washer and make suds like crazy.
