I bought 2 of those 35 years ago "for backup" I stiil havent used them. But I am sure that when I do my result will be different.

I HATE peg board. It is sold to weekend warrior types and is sometimes adopted by managers who think tools will now be organized and never go missing because of the outlines. In reality, the cheap shit hooks fall out or don't let go of the tool. There are only awkward options for hanging larger tools or ones without a hole. Might as well add in baby jars of rusty cross threaded hardware screwed to an offcut of chipboard to that list. Any "Door Crasher/Father's Day/Makes A Great Gift" from Canuckistan Tire is also crap IMHO.

I love it. So much so that I use it for door material on my storage shelves for extra storage space. The key is to buy the better hooks. Either the super thick hooks that have two engagements to the board or the kits that have the black plastic keepers that you place across the hook and snap into the two adjacent holes. Both will keep holding the hook in while you pull out the tool being retained.

1. Milsukie portaband that snapped bandsaw blades like pretzels before the teeth showed any wear. Machining custom bushings for the idler wheel slide took the 1/8" slop out of the weeble wobble. Guide bearings continually got replaced from seizing up or blowing up from debris during use. Paying $25 per bearing for oem is rediculous so a 30 pack on Amazon cured the continual surprise maintenance issues. The shoe was machined at 89° instead of 90 causing lots of headaches trying to sort out why everything turned out crooked. The PA6 plastic cooling fan blew up a year into owning it. A whole new armature has to be bought as it is cast in place. The cooling fin shoot out like razor blades when she blows. Fast forward to a little bit past 3 years in ownership, cooling fan number 2 blew up shedding about half of the plastic fins. Milsukie refused a warranty service number on the first cooling fan stating if it blew up, it was abuse by the user even though they had barely heard any details or pictures of the problem. With the 2nd cooling fan blow up, the saw was under the 5 year warranty but wouldn't be looked at for 4 weeks after receiving once mailed to them. Of course the customer pays the shipping and any components they deem as abuse or misuse which is virtually everything once reading their fine print in the warranty statement. I decided not to fix the saw and use it until I ran out of the stockpiled guide bearings. The saw has always been kept clean even in the metal cutting environment of the shop. Changing blade manufacturers made no difference in how long they lasted. I purchased a Bauer bandsaw which from what I was told comes out of the other side of the same factory Milsukie does and blades lasting until the teeth are dull has been a pay raise increase. 2. The M18 drill and driver set lasted about 2 years before major problems showed up needing repairs. The drill out of the box would not change speeds by the slide switch. Milsukie had a 2 week wait upon receipt before it could be looked at with the attitude that it was already my fault yet it had never had drilled a hole yet. I decided I'll just fix it as I had work to get done. The Chinesium spring was installed wrong in the housing with the finger ends not hooked in the holes causing the no gear change. One battery stopped accepting a charge. Was told it was due to excessive heat or cold and likely been dropped too hard. Always an excuse as to why warranty was void without Milsukie knowing all the details for being called. 3. Channel Lock brand linesman pliers - was working for an electrical contractor and bought a new pair which out of the package would fold over the wire rather than cutting it off. Found out the cutting jaws had been machined crooked and the pin was loose as AvE had encountered also. Made in the USA with short cuts taken to keep profits up all while competing with the import brands. So agree or disagree, name brand or no name brand, either way is a gamble as it could work great and last forever or be a total piece of shit. The Bauer bandsaw, it has already paid for itself not eating at least one $7 blade a week. Not all cheaper brands like Horrid Fraud offers are bad. Another note before many think I don't take care of my tools, I treat them well as they cost too much not to. I just tend to find the lemon tool more often than not as bad luck seems to be the common problem. Just my thoughts.

I bought the set because I needed 5 3.2mm rivets on a Sunday, and finished off the other 4 as well as the first with another rivet gun. A pox on cheap rivets as well, where the mandrel snaps off half way, leaving you to break out the grinder to finish the job.

When I still had my own company, I made aluminium fans for oil burners that were riveted together. Since the fan rotated at 3000rpm, the customer told me to use Emhart rivets explicitly, because the high rpms would cause metal fatigue and the fan would disintegrate. Guess what, Emhart (and Masterfix) was bought by Stanley and the production was moved to China... Got a phone call a week ago from the company asking me if I had some rivets left so they cold do some testing because they were looking to produce new fans. I emailed them in the summer of 2015 warning them about rivets made out of finest chinesium. Based on what I've seen, the rivets might be made in the same factories that makes the cheap no-name brands. They just slapped their own stickers on the white boxes.

Deck grinders used for industrial level tile removal. Combines the worst of jackhammers, needle guns and pallet jacks with the accompanying joy of 150 decibels of mind ringing joy.

what happens with alpha particles is they pick up a set of electrons as soon as it can. Generally, the skin has a lot of dead cells on the outside that pick up ionization (extra electrons) from the environment. Alpha particles can't make it more than a millimeter at most into the skin due to this property. Once they are inside of your body, however, they can steal electrons from your organs and DNA structures and wreak all kinds of havoc.

One of my big regret tools is the HF manual tire mounter. I wasn't expecting a fancy powered experience. I knew there'd be some manual labor involved with it, but what I wasn't expecting is how the bar is so poorly designed to scar up the lip of aluminum rims on the removal. And in fact, it's only the bar I have issue with. The rest of it actually is quite functional for standard traditional tires. Don't bother with anything with a low profile. But trailer tires and old truck rims, it works on. I just wish the handle didn't scar up the rims. Maybe I'm just not using it right, but for the minimal cost saving, I'll just take my tires to be mounted. On the other hand, the HF static tire balancer is AWESOME. I wish I'd owned one of these years ago. Again, there's some manual work involved with operating it, but it does a darn good job of balancing a tire...worth every penny IMO.

You are a poet and a wordsmith. Keep up the good work.

Knew a guy who was about 55, he had been a master tech for 35 years, he had been a commercial trucker for 30 years, he has been in the armed forces for 20 years, he was in the RCMP for 10-15 years somewhere in there, he had lived am interesting life. He showed us a picture of his classic Chevelle all done up in front of the shop he owned, of course we live in Ontario and he had palm trees in the picture which we pointed out... He had been a special forces sniper and had had Sadaam Hussein in his sights and wasn't allowed to take the shot one time; another time he and some other truckers were stranded in the mountains for 30 days due to a snow storm so he hunted caribou with a sharpened stick and fed them all with esperagus he had in his trailer and the caribou he had speared. As funny as the stories were, he thought we believed them all, he had no mechanics license, no skills of any sort but he believed he was a gift to the earth. Always had a better story or experience. He was steal your lunch out of the break room poor but he had several successful businesses. He is my most hated tool. Side note, can confirm about those mastercraft sockets wearing off. Pain in the arse.
