Vise grips Irwin
They don’t make them like the used to. I have used this brand of vise grips for over 50 years. They have always been very durable and lasted through 20 years of abuse before I lost them. This new pair broke while I was clamping 2 pieces of steel together with one hand. How could the pieces have fallen to the floor? The jaw broke and I wasn’t even misusing them.

It is fully automatic, Once programmed it recovers, vacuums, leak tests and charges. Leak test ? Dye? yes or no. Oil 1 or oil 2? how much? I can walk away and come back in 30 minutes or 3 hours. If it’s charged it passed the leak test. Start the vehicle check opera Read more...
Milwaukee 2767-20 M18 FUEL High Torque 1/2 in. Impact Wrench Milwaukee Tool
It’s Heavy, it’s pricey at nearly $500 with the big battery and charger. This tool is for when you need power, it has it. 1400 foot pounds and it seems like more compared to a 1200 foot pound air impact. It has 3 different power levels, The first time I used it with a torque stick on high. It would have quickly twisted the wheel stud right off with the torque stick in use. High is for removal only and it’s coming off now. Cordless or hose-less is Read more...
