dwasifar Posted June 3, 2017 Report Share Posted June 3, 2017 Today this arrived: It's a work of art, isn't it? Looks like a piece of silverware: Also, this screwdriver rack "arrived" today in the sense that I made it today out of scrap wood: What holds it up? Hard drive magnets: I wasn't sure the magnets from one hard drive would be strong enough to hold up a whole screwdriver set, but I needn't have worried; they'd easily hold up twice that many, as it turns out. Might be time to take a little steel wool to those screwdrivers. Edit - There, much better now: 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted June 4, 2017 Report Share Posted June 4, 2017 My RZ mask arrived today. I thought about getting a titanium grey mask but it was out of stock so I went with a high vis green. Also got a pack of replacement filters. My DS300 is starting to fill to capacity with the recent DeWALT light and RZ mask additions. I expected the mask to be more rigid like the typical 3m rubber dust masks but to my surprise it was a soft fabric. Seems more comfortable than the disposable kind or the ones at work.

They certainly do! Can you believe the are tested to cut cheese cloth! Every single pair is tested, not just a couple from a batch but ALL of them. Another really cool part is they are 100% US made down to the source of materials, this includes their suppliers as well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty shocking that their pretty reasonably priced. Each cutter is less than a European PH3 screwdriver, or a tool truck PH2! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they are quite nicer than many disposable out there. I still have problems with it sitting against my nose properly and others are saying the same, so they came out with the M2.5 version. I hear that Ellipse is even nicer.. For nicer disposable ones, I really really like Moldex 2730 ..really nice and the strap is adjustable and comes apart real easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwasifar Posted June 7, 2017 Report Share Posted June 7, 2017 Today the Tekton elf arrived and filled my stocking: What you see there are (front to back) 1/4" and 3/8" flex head quick-release ratchets; 1/2" 12-pt shallow metric sockets; 1/2" 6-pt deep SAE sockets. They all look like good quality Taiwan manufacture. I have yet to try them out. I'm torturing myself buying tools I can't use for a while (surgery recovery time). In the background is the Craftsman 3/8" flex head ratchet that's being replaced. The ratchet action is sloppy, which I could fix with a rebuild kit, but also the detents on the flex head are really loose, which I don't think I can do anything about. I hate to replace USA with Taiwan, but there you go. On the plus side, it was easy to demonstrate to my wife why I needed a new ratchet handle when I already had one. I just shook them both, and when she saw the Tekton's head stay put and the Craftsman's head flop around like a Muppet, she said "Yep." 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dwasifar Posted June 8, 2017 Report Share Posted June 8, 2017 Well, these arrived today: I go out of my way to buy a Made-In-USA product, with high hopes, and as soon as I get them into the rack I can see the Phillips shafts are crooked. You can see it in the picture (look at the two longest Phillips). I'm not sure if they're molded that way or just bent, but either way I'm very disappointed. Someone at Channellock doesn't care if his job goes to China. These were bought from Circle C Supply in Bazine, KS. I called them and they're sending out a replacement set, but if this is a manufacturing defect, and I think it is, I have no reason to expect the replacements to be any better. Circle C didn't sound happy about it but they didn't argue. Made in USA. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
