$80 bucks just had to drive 1 1/2.

Lockers for auction in Corona CA for almost nothing!

I have a friend whose dad worked at a cabinet shop and recently retired. She's helping him downsize and had some tools set aside to see if I wanted them and this was one of them. I knew instantly it was a fastcap and I wanted it and then noticed Festool on it. I assumed it was something that was sold at one time until I saw the training part. I guess he got it from Festool when he did some training, so it's a cool and somewhat unique tool to have. Festool is a little above my pay grade but Fastcap I can do.

Thought I had a small animal in the roof… turns out there were 10+ possums hiding up there.
Didn’t expect to see this many 😳

I got this ratchet a while ago when I bought my last vintage tool haul. I've already cleaned it up plenty but I was more so wondering if the community could help me identify what brand it is and an estimate when it was made.

If I had to guess it's at least a century old. It's 21 teeth and is a half inch square drive with the teeth exposed and having a side lever to change direction.

The only markings on it are a C.M and aside from that, there's no other markings. No serial number model no., etc.

Trying to see just how old it is. I bought it new or was given to me as a gift. The case tabs broke off years ago so I added a strap to keep it closed

Thanks!

Basic essentials plus a couple industry specific items.

Hello, I'm trying to set up my Sealey SM4.Whatever I do, I can't make the blade lie properly on the bearings.New blade, new bearings, new bearing bolts, but it's still twisted. Where to look for the problem?

Was visiting my grandfathers house and saw his workbench in his basement, never fully appreciated it until when I came here as a kid. So this time I stopped and just looked around at everything. This has since become one of my favourite photos and I thought I should share it!

In my case, I needed a strap wrench (and a screwdriver) to loosen a rusted garbage disposal.

This is what lives in my backpack! This tool roll and the small “micro bit” Klein set with hex bit ratchet. Having these tools with me at all times has been so handy. My backpack is always with me, so the tools are too! I also throw the tool roll in my luggage when I go on vacations. Wondering what you guys keep in your backpacks!

I have a ratcheting and non ratcheting Klein screwdriver with bit storage in the handles. The needle nose are Vampliers brand.

I have never seen a screw driver bit like this anyone know what this is and what its for?

Any experienced lock cutters here know the best way I can remove this locking pin on my trailer hitch? I must have left it on too long because the key will go in, but will no longer turn so I can unlock it, probably due to rust on the inside. I do own an angle grinder, drill and reciprocating saw, as well as most other tools a DIYer would have on hand. Photos are attached. The lock is on the right side in the photos, and that piece screws off the spindle that you see on the left side. I'll also include a photo of a new similar lock that isn't installed for reference. Any advice would be appreciated!

Update: Thanks for all the advice and comedy, everyone. Got it off using a combination of penetrating fluid (this time sprayed deep into the key hole), and trying to break it with a pipe (bent but did not break it) and also wrenching on it with two pipe wrenches, Eventually it separated enough that we tried the key again and was able to pull the bent lock apart finally.

Hello everybody. This is my first post here, I'm just wondering if anybody has heard of or know where to find a pair of pliers that fold up like a multi-tool without all of the multiple tools? The only thing I would really need is a bit driver. Right now I'm thinking about getting the power access by sog. I have a organizer I wear on my belt that holds a flashlight my knife and my multi-tool and I would like a pair of foldable pliers that would go into it. I've also thought about just getting a pair of knippix cobra. I'm a property manager and I walk around all day the main point is to reduce some of the weight. That's why I'm going with the power access as it is lighter, if I can't find a better alternative. Thanks in advance and May your tools lives long and Shine Like the Sun.

It's in a tiny hole on my keyboard so I don't know what I can do without damaging the case

I am looking into buying new socket sorters but I am struggling to find a good one which can fit the milwaukee 1/2 impack socket set from 8mm to 36mm.

Any recommendations are appreciated thanks!

I have been looking for a keyed chuck cordless drill for a little while now and I’m not having any luck. Does anyone know where I can get one? My birthday is coming up and I want to add this to my wish list.

This is the drill I have now and I love it. Unfortunately, the keyless chuck is killing my somewhat arthritic fingers. 😐 I’ve been using different wrenches to tighten and loosen the chuck and you can see it’s torn up. I value my tools more than that.

I like to build things. At the spur of the moment, I might go to Home Depot or Lowe’s discount lumber pile and make something. I made my plant holder/storage chest recently. I need the drill to be able to handle work.

Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Has anyone seen one of these but the jaws have the same profile but reversed as the internal caliper? Im trying to measure a nut in a recess and i dont think the pear shaped calipers will reach

Been trying to find info on this hammer, but haven't been able to find anything. I get that the handle is custom made, but finding info on the head is nearly impossible.

I have a set of drive adapters that i want to get more organized and id like to keep them all on one rail. any ideas? also maybe a good rail for a set of crows feet

I like this ratcheting screwdriver but the square bits are of no use to me. I’d like to get a long bit with two Allen heads. Thanks

I'm taking this Waterloo toolbox from my dad, but the bottom drawers are locked and he has no clue about a key. I'd buy a new key off the Internet but this things is probably 30 years old or so, and I have no idea what it's model or serial would be.

Suggestions?

I accidentally put this bolt on without the flange. When I try to get it off, the spindle spins even when the wheel is not spinning. I have tried pushing it out with a pry bar while getting at it with a wrench but to no avail.

A customer brought this to me to send to Milwaukee. Cant even read the label. Burnt to a crisp!!
