I still don't think metabo should have ever attempted Lowes. Lowe's is a very homeowner oriented hardware store and Metabo is not a homeowner tool. That and they wouldn't have even stocked any of the tools that I would want. I like it how it is locally. They sell Metabo at places where guys that would use metabo would actually regularly go, aka the industrial/welding supply store. Most major industrial companies purchasing agents won't ever go near a Lowes. They're going to go into the industrial suppliers and set up an account and get themselves setup with regular deliveries and then when they need a tool they make one call and the next delivery has a dozen metabo grinders.
Lowes has been known to do some goofy stuff... I bought a a fair amount of Knipex when they were closing it out. Seriously, expensive German pliers at Lowes?

Glad to help, bud. If I can get you to spend some money, even later, my evil plan is working... LOL

Oh, yeah, I got some MORE sockets. 3/8 metric 6 point deep.

Do you think you could put them side by side with some full length deep well sockets?
This might be a better comparison. Carlyle vs Carlyle:

Sorry I took so long, but here they are next to some Wrights and some Craftsman.

I'll see if I can find some tonight in the disaster area that is my garage.
I doubt I can bring myself to spend the money, but the long combo wrenches (that the C-Man wrote a glowing review on) and the flex stubby ratcheting wrenches interest me...

Jeez, I might need one of those!

Same principle as the rotator ratchets designed by Facom. They come in handy with oil filter and cartridge wrenches where you don't have a lot of room to swing the ratchet. Just rotate ("throttle") the handle to spin the square drive. There's a video online of the tool in use. Stanley also has a version of these ratchets.
Jeez, Steve, welcome aboard. Didn't know you liked slumming in this place! LOL

More sockets: NAPA has their 'Real Deals' quarterly flyer out, and the 3/8" drive mid-length/semi-deep sockets are featured in it, so I bought the SAE set to go with my metric set I just bought.

I played around with the drill a little bit yesterday and compared to my M12 stuff it's TINY!

How does that thing do on 2x dimensional lumber? That would be my primary use for it, but I don't know whether to get this or save (a lot more) for a band saw.

Yup. Wright apparently started making them again for military mechanics in the Sandbox when their 'sealed' ratchets got gummed up. Available in 3/8" 3480 (shown) and 1/2" 4480.

Turns out that I was talking out my butt... I realize I don't have any of my Snap On rats in there, plus, I just bought a couple of Wright 3/8" ratchets, a 3425 and a 3480. Photobucket is down for maintenance or I'd hang some pics of the shiny new goodness...

I have that same HF ratchet. I like it, I just need to do some surgery on it to keep the head from flopping around quite so easily.
Hey Nicholas, do you know if you could get a BJP1 ball joint press through he SEP program?

Not really a hand tool, but are you looking for something like this?
