No concrete on mine. Well, except for the concrete I drop them on. I totally understand the all weather conditions. Working in conditions where Rite-in-the-rain notebooks cry uncle can put the hurt on tapes.

I have a couple of Tajima and Komelon tape measures. Both good value for the money. I never pay extra for a one with strong housing because that's never the cause of a broken unit for me, it's the ends that often break or it gets jammed up from rain water and sand/dirt in my cases.

I've use a couple of Komelons and they were pretty decent. There's just always a pile of 12 and 25' Lufkins around the office.

Man, if I wasn't so broke I'd have a ton of Hazet tools and a couple of sets of Gedore ratcheting wrenches...

My universal sockets arrived the other day. What is super cool about these is that there are adjusters for the tension on both pivot points.
Hey Nicholas, can you get an overall shot, including he ends of the rail? One or two of my sets are rails that are too short to hang on pegs straight down, so they hang a little cock-eyed.
Need to order some rails and clips....

Since the kid isn't doing anything to feed our chrome addiction, my new stuff. SAE, 1/4" semi-deeps and 3/8" deep. Sorry about the orientation, photobucket is being... difficult.

Metabo and Fein are top dogs, thought about mentioning what or the other but that can be a big bite to chew into for an occasional user... love to get my paws on a fein things are built like a tank! Makita is supposed to be a nice grinder as well but everyone has their preference.
That's why I suggested watching CPO. I got my Fein for like 60% off.

Notice the color scheme among the grinders these guys use?
Are those DeWalt? They look more like Fein to me....
I have four grinders... a 5" Fein, a 4.5" Bosch 1380 Slim, a 4.5 DeWalt, and a 4" Makita. Obviously, I like the Fein the best, by miles. The Krauts know how to make fantastic grinders. The Bosch is apparently an outlier, as it's supposed to be cheap and light, and it does feel cheap and unrefined. Surprisingly, because I don't really like DeWalt, I really like the grinder. The Makita is also a fine tool.
I don't like paddle switches, and I dunno if I've ever used a grinder with a trigger. I'll likely stick with sliding switches.
I don't know if being in The Great White North will be a problem, but CPO Fein/CPO Metabo frequently have screaming deals on both Metabo and Fein grinders. I'd watch them closely...

Ive got a bad feeling about this quarter. Those sockets are super cheap. I'm feeling the 3/8 metric flex sockets and possibly the mid length too.
Definately do the semi-deeps. I have the NAPA 3/8" sets and I'm 97% sure I'll get the 1/4" this quarter.
I see they also have the 1/2" roto on special....

I think it was Toronto toolman. Haven't seen him around in a bit though. Probably busy with work.

I have a ton more M12 tools, but I actually USE M18 stuff more, mainly the 3/8" impact wench. 18v Makita is a distant third.
