So next week I got Tuesday off so I'm going to start the hone process. I saw on a video where uncle Tony uses gas as the lube to hone an engine.
I might try it

I'm just
you. I like all tools, I do have snap on, matco, Mac, and majority craftsman. I even have some Pittsburgh. I actually worked at sears for 8 months just to get the employee discount, it was a great time.
I believe all the manufacturers have some great tools and all the manufacturers have some items here and there that could have used just a bit more thought.
I don't discriminate against tools, In fact I just found and picked up a pair of vice grips laying on the street. Made my day to find something good on the street lol.
Petersen or Irwin?
As long as they were made in the USA you're good. There is so many made in China locking pliers out there now. I am ashamed to say but we sold a 10 piece set for $100 when I was back on the truck. Not good quality but I sold hundreds of sets each time they promoted them.
First. In October.
Not where I live.
You're so 'yesterday'Not where I live.
OK then I will be nice and but exclude anyone
Besides we can't get political in here, you said so yourself

Hey - I'm missing one of my vise grips from my suspension.... Give them back....
Found a little pair of vise grips clamped to a brake line fitting,20 plus years ago. Soaked with evapo-rust. They freed up and i have been using them since.
new vise grips are junk.

Still September here
Get the newest possible Irwins you can find. They are good and made in USA again.
Morning
Morning! wind is already blowing hard. Be fricking cold today. Time to start the heater in the little garage. And pick up pellets this weekend. 90 bags into basement.
Morning. Just ordered coal here yesterday.
Morning Craig. Yes, frost warning here tonight. Except for a few small plants I have everything inside.
So, wondered why my right shoulder was sore this morning.
All bruised. Nothing like standing on a ladder with a heavy spring that wont line up, and running out of steam. Its done, just hope spring holds up for a few years. Next round i may have to pay someone to fix it.
