    What a pain in the ass if you break them that often. o_O I use the sawzall blades and can't complain about them. They don't last any less than the big names and if I mangle one into oblivion I just pop a new one in like it ain't no thing. :bananadance:

    I abused the shit out of a HF chisel on concrete today. I was kinda surprised it wasn't destroyed after I was done. It was surprisingly sharp when I started. Probably dulled it a bit though.

    I tried out the Bearing Separator and Puller Set found here Ill give it a 5/10 out of the box. The rod and nuts are cheap and probably not even grade 5. I used it once and it started bending the rod. BUT and a big but is its pretty comparable to other brands at the same price point. Which all seem to suffer the same problem.

    But picked up some better quality all thread and grade 8 nuts and its much more stable.

    Probably. They have a really good return policy if it is within 30 days. At least my local one does.

    Is it better using the jack coupons or the 20% off coupons ?

    Jack is normally $79.99. 20% of that is $15.99 off, so $64.00. Price with jack coupon, $59.99.

    You can't use 20% off on floor Jacks.

    In most instances, the coupons for an actual item are better than the % off coupons.

    I got one, then my brother-in-law "borrowed" it. That was a little over a year ago. Anyway, the cans are solid, except they use their own spouts, not the NATO style. At ~$40 it's an OK price, wait for a coupon. If I was spending the $40 again, I would get a NATO Jerry or U.S. Army Scepter Fuel Can. The spouts are easier to find.
