    NICE!!!!  what instagram page was it?
    Won a Rapid Drill on Instagram, pretty cool drilling jig, if you guys are interested I could create a thread with some more in depth pics and videos, basically attaches to your drill and is kind of like a mobile press, great for drilling through metal

    This is the slim model they also have a pro with a larger capacity

    I bought a set of Kobalt metric combination wrenches for $18 on clearance:

    Taiwan manufacture.  Very nice chrome, and each wrench is longer than the equivalent USA Craftsman I bought in the '90s:

    Lowes is blowing out a lot of Kobalt stuff at bargain prices to make room for all the SBD Craftsman they're bringing in.  Downside is it's not going to be as easy to get warranty replacements any more.  But for a set of wrenches this nice for only $18, I'll take the risk.

    lol dont even start me on lowes clearance ! i went in to buy pencils for 3 bucks and walked out with 87.00 bucks worth of stuff from their clearance cart.  impact socket set from 49.00 to 12 bucks    got 2 because its what us guys do lol , 2 sets of pass through-through socket set, and other small drillbit/bits kits  it was a gold mine that day.

    I have the corded dewalt and went to buy glue stick refills and saw this. Only 24.00. Have been using it for about 3 hrs now and it’s pretty awesome ! Heat up it pretty quick, has in if switch. Only downside is maybe a belt clip would be nice when working in a ladder but aside from that this thing great.

    Why so many duplicates?  Do you break them?  Lose them?  Wear them out?  Stocking stuffers for xmas?  [emoji3]

    Be

    A friend was closing his business. And I’ve done Home favors so he sold them to me for 10 bucks each ! Got the ones I’d use the most :)))

  5. Due to the good weather I decided to hit up the outdoor flea market today, walked away with some sweet tools. 

    $30 for the Klein multimeter

    $5 for the Milwaukee Fastback 

    $8 for the Klein 10" adjustable wrench

    Also bought some Insulated knipex pliers set off of ebay for $52. With the exception of the rust they are in great condition. I'm gonna try and clean off the rust later today.

    Nice. I find some great deals at flea markets!

     

    Let the metal soak in vinegar over night. Removes the rust.

    I've noticed that some stores keep tool boxes in the tool rental area as well, if they don't offer that service.  I think the lumber aisles are one of the worst places to keep tool boxes.  I've seen more than a few dented by unwary customers with lumber carts.

    That’s when you get the additional 20-30% off for the damage :))))
