    2' X 2' Flat Panel LED Lighting

    3500k lights are the yellowish (warm) light. I personally hate that color spectrum. My basement has no natural lighting so I installed 5000k lites which is Daylight and I love them. They are also dimmable. If you want those lights we use Lithonia lighting when doing retrofits and they make very...

    Latest opinions on socket clip/ bars?

    I got a cheap Alltrade tool kit for Christmas many years ago. In that kit were these socket strips. Ive looked everywhere for them and can find them any longer.

    I honestly can say that I have never seen anything useful at the antique stores we have around here. Lots of wall art tools, but never anything as awesome as a grinder with stand.. Nice score!

    Torque Wrench Repair???

    I was told by my Sears store that I would have to pay to have mine fixed, so I've never brought it into them. Of course this was over the phone. Maybe I'll just grab it and walk in and see what the kid behind the counter does.. Perhaps I can get a new one.

    Will it work?

    That isnt to bad, I was just curious how fast it drained it and if you spent more time filling it then actually using it. Someday when I get a compressor I will have all these fun toys.

    when to pull the plug??

    Yep, I think its junk also. I had a oil less compressor and I will never ever buy one again. It didnt last a year. I couldnt get warranty on it and the repair parts where to buy a new compressor assembly. They didnt sell the teflon rings. That assembly was as much as the compressor was new...

    Timing light troubles.

    I have the basic Innova timing light. I had to warranty my first one. Lasted 1 week. Something inside came loose and it would flash randomly or not at all. Replaced the broken one with a identical one. It seemed a lot better and sturdier. Not sure if the other was a return or what.. Works...
