Sheesh! Those Tekton sockets have more than tripled in price over 3 years. I just looked up a metric set I bought 3 years ago for $35, now $114. Was thinking about getting an SAE set to match, but I'll have to wait for Christmas. (Christmas in July)

Dangit I don't want know that
I went with this and added a set of tekton adapters. Hopefully it is all amazing I have never spent this much on tools before
Ohh I was thinking like the 1/2 to 3/8 adapters and the like. I used stuff like that for a good year before I learned an impact drill is different from an impact wrench
Ain't the Internet wonderful?
First, it gives us access to stuff we didn't even know existed, at great prices.
Then, everybody chats online about the good products and prices.
Then, the vendor raises prices, due to our own praise of their products.
We should all buy stuff, and if it's good, badmouth it to the world.

Torque test channel just destroyed a bunch of these in testing. Icon rated very highly for something easy to find and keep stocked. There were some other good ones too, but most seem to be made of tool grade parmesean or cheddar.
Turns out its a 1950s Pexto 382-D 3' 22ga. slip roll.
I've never seen one this not clapped out.
Someone loved it because it was well lubricated. Pulled the gear covers off and there was a fair amount of grease.
The drive end of the top roller and retainer on every one I have ever seen was hammered due to no lube. The journal hanging off the end measures 1.125", and it measures 1.1247" on the wear surface. And the retainer is cherry. Looks like all its ever rolled is a few round bar rings.
I didnt need this. Never wanted one of my own. But I'm gonna do a project just so I can use it

That's the problem with cool tools, don't need it but if I...
But it was FREE!!!
It had me at Pexto. I wouldnt have taken it if it was anything else.
Im gonna guess its 200lb+. My co worker and I were almost not man enough to get it off a welding table on a trailer and on to my flatbed
Not sure if $149 for the Milwaukee packout wet/dry vac is good but here is the deal. I would consider it if it came with a battery (I am all Ryobi currently) Probably best that I don't or Thousands would probably be spent...lol

I have that one in my service truck. I really like it. Battery life is surprisingly good.
I got that one at Home Depot with 5 ah battery for under $200 last year.
I missed this but I ended up picking up a set of the tekton impact adapters. We'll see if they can survive!
These showed up to says early. They feel nice, excited to see how the flex head makes things easier.
I was planning on 3d printing some sweet holders for them for my toolbox but it came with this fancy foam... Decisions decisions

Well the flex is a weak point so it might save your sockets
j/k (mostly) I'm sure you'll be happy with them!
Well I have a breaker bar for that kind of stuff... I just need sockets that can survive it's 25" of fury
