Gentlemens, if you spend way too much time fighting spring pins like I do, pick yourself up a set of spring pin punches.  

These are from Wilde and run around a $20 spot, made somewhere in Kansas.

Dasco and Enderes are made in the US too.

If you are a real baller, get a set of Starrett punches.

One of my customers air compressors came unglued. The head was found 20 feet away.

Holy shit.  Moral of story: don’t use glue to assemble my air compressor.  Got it.

Gentlemens, what does one do with a $25 cash card (probably from cheap snowmobile oil or something) that expires this month?

Spend it on food?

Something nice for the wife or kid?

Something for the house?

Hellz naw!

Wilde punch holder and 16" Masterforce screwdriver from Menards!  I suspect that the Masterforce line of screwdrivers is made by Wilde, judging by the color of the acetate handle and the general style of it.

Also, more Wilde stuff is available at Harry Epstein, if you all need more pliers, screwing stuff, scrapers, punches, or the like.  https://www.harryepstein.com/index.php/tool-brand/wilde.html

Bayco, but it seems like no matter what I do, I can't get the charge back into the two I have.  Probably get the Horrible Freight knock-off ones.

Speaking of Horrible Freight, if you look at the price of the screwin stuff at the Horrible Freight vs. the Masterforce line at Menards, it really isn't that much more to get the made in the US Masterforce brand.

What say to guys to a pair of late model Ski-Doo Elan 250's?  Good sleds? 

There is a pair that run and are cheap within a reasonable drive...

Around here people think they are gold or something. Here a good example :lol:

I have the socket backbone holders. Omg,can not imagine having loose sockets in the drawer

Mine were all over the place for a few years until I just cleaned them up.  It made even the smallest of projects miserable.
