    Late to the party, I'm guessing @Mondo1310 already purchased a set. Just wanted to add my vote for the Wiha's. Microfinish, specifically. Very slight gritty finish, clean up real easy.

    Man, these are a nice set of screwdrivers. I've only recently been aware of companies like Wiha, Wera, Felo, Gedore, Knipex, etc...

     

    Right now, as far as screwdrivers go, I only have Klein and Milwaukee. I actually prefer my Milwaukee set because they fit nicely in my toolbags and pouches. I'm gonna pickup a Wera set soon and try them out

    Tough Tool Reviews on Instragram

     

    Sorry to hear that man, I would be sad too.

     

    I few weeks ago, someone broke into our shop and stole a bunch of tools along with our Chevy Utility Truck. He took my Milwaukee Fuel Impact and Hammer Drill Kit and a small bag of various hand tools. Somehow, he didn't see my Veto, thank god. The bag along with all the tools in it are around $800. I tried to get the video of the burglar but our security system deleted the video already

    I've got the Tech LC. It's a bit large for a service type bag. I think I'm gonna pick up the TP3 pouch and keep the essentials in that. The Tech LC can fit a bunch of electrical type hand tools along with some testing equipment.

    I guess it would depend on what type of hand tools you plan to carry and for what type of work. The bags are great, I'm gonna stick with Veto. Other bags I like are the open top bags from Stanley. You might have to do some customizing yourself to fit your needs, but the Stanley bags are cheap. Husky is good too as well as clc

    Man I miss you guys. Been trying to get on the forum for a while now, like a few months. 

     

    I signed in today but I was signed in under another User for some reason, not sure what's happening.

     

    Anyway, I just wanted to shout out to the TIA Crew! I've been missing in action from the forum but try to chime in on YouTube when I can. 

     

    Peace out!

  20. Stiletto hammer ?

    in Hand Tools

    Posted

    If I were a framer I'd definitely pick one up. I do have a stiletto that cost me about $75. It ain't the T-bone, but it works well. It has a wood handle.

    Compared to my California Framer it sinks nails easier and with less weight. I just prefer the California Framer because it fits better on my tool pouch

  21. Bought Square

    That looks great! I've never seen a square like that before. I'm glad that it ended up in your hands to bring new life to an old tool. Good stuff

  23. Found some old pliers

    in Hand Tools

    Thanks crew for all the tips. I read online that Distilled White Vinegar could be used to remove rust. I had some in the kitchen so I just used that. Left the pliers in a cup filled with vinegar overnight. Next day I came back and brushed them down with a wire brush and some rags. They have some pitting and the cutters are shot, but thats to be expected. I'm not entirely sure how to sharpen the cutters, I think I'll take a file to them though

    I just watched a Jimmy Diresta video not long ago where he restored some hand tools. Pretty cool really, kind of makes me want to try it. Looking forward to seeing the finished product Nalu.
