I wouldn’t mind the 72”, but I can’t get rid of the Craftsman. It was a gift from my wife when I retired from the military.
Definitely need the 72. Probably should get 2 while you're at it!
Sweet shop!
I really wanted a Matco or Mac tool truck..... but umm $$$$ got in the way. Lol.
Thanks it's a blessing for sure
I had the "opportunity" to use a Christmas gift today.
This morning on the way to work, my car's tire pressure light came on. I checked it when leaving for the day, 5 lbs under.
When I got home, I got out my new air chuck/gauge. This thing is the BOMB.
I used the included thread tape on all the connections before I hooked it up and it worked great.
The gauge is within 1-pound of my pen gauge, so I'm good with that.
So much easier to use than the straight, hard-line chuck I'd been using.
Here's the product link: https://www.amazon.com/AstroAI-Infl...-Accessories/dp/B07RVHPWK8?tag=wranglerorg-20

Nothing to exciting as far as some tools, but they are the necessary ones needed for the job! Its nice to have the right tools for a job.
I've wanted one for awhile just never "needed" it until I was in the check out line at tractor supply. It fell into my cart somehow.
You'll enjoy it. I bought one when I replaced the seating in my RV. It worked great to remove the fasteners holding the furniture to the floor.
Working on a little business project. Picked up a log splitter
And a 10k lb scale
Messing with the scale last night I realized I could use it to see how much my TJ weights. Just need to find the right tree and hook up the winch...

Pics. Definitely pics…
Video! Would be a good test of my reverse winching setup.
Going up is the easy part. Setting it back down right side up is the challenge. Could be a situation where the stinger comes in handy!
Novelty mini US General toolbox is actually pretty nice for $17. Ball bearing sliders, lined drawers, and gently magnetic close.

Maybe, i wouldn't need to buy so many new tools if the kids put them back.

this harbor fright Bin Floor Mount Parts Rack was a good buy to straighten up the garage.

thank you, i've found a bunch of stuff used: 3 ton floor jack, heavy duty jack stands, old wrenches and screw drivers to hang over the bench.
I use to buy the expensive Milwaukee ones when we were rewiring old houses. You could drill the top plate down where the roof was low at the eave with them. We abused the hell out of them using 1" spade bits and they'd keep going for months at a time. For home use that Dewalt will probably last you the rest of your life.
Milwaukee later came out with a cheaper version and the first one we tried only lasted a few weeks.
Took advantage of Harbor Freight's "15% off anything" sale this weekend and picked up a press.
Since I'm an idiot and have never used a press before, I decided to smush an egg. I was expecting more of a pop from it
kinda anti-climactic.
