Well I said I wasn't going to get into the Black Friday sales thing...but I was looking a Lowes, and they had this on sale, plus I had a gift card from Father's day. I have been wanting the 1/2 drive impact for a while now, the 3/8 ratchet was just a bonus.

I wanted a 3 ton arbor press, but hated the money. I just missed a 3 ton Drake with floor stand on craigs..... So I settled for a 1 ton from grizzly with a 30" cheater bar and a 50 pound weight. lol Time will tell if it was a good idea or not.

I don't know if you would call this a tool, but it upgrades a tool. I saw these on You Tube, watched the video, and went to the site and looked at them. I didn't buy it than. A few days later I get a email with 40% off. So I got two of them for 23.00 and 5.00 shipping. These work very well...I was amazed. Just not built for tight spaces.

A few companies actually make similar products. The one I bought recently was Flexzilla brand.

I need one of those grease gun hose holders. I think I have every tool, but not one of those. Always curse at my grease guns for popping off and dripping. Well, I guess thats life!

I usually use the ol c-clamp to push the caliper cylinder back in but I found this for 15 bucks

on Amazon. Comes with 2 different size plates to fit bigger calipers. I'll try it out on the rear brakes on my camaro. Can't beat the price.
For those of you that didn't know the back bar and screw from a 2 jaw puller works great on most calipers.

Bought the shed cover to store all my engines in for the winter, to keep them all safe and dry.

Let me, (or us) know the quality of the portable shed. I need to have a few things covered outside.
