I wish they still sold those Chicago Electric 4" angle grinders, I've had mine for about 18 years, it still works great. I have the Earthquake 1200ftlb impact, works great, plenty of torque for many DIY projects. Those organizer boxes are great, I wish they would lock to each other though to make moving them around easier. I do the same thing with my angle grinders. I keep different cutting/grinding wheels on them so I'm not swapping wheels all the time. I have a few Bauer and Hercules tools, both seem to be just fine for my needs for DIY projects and homeowner stuff. The framing nailer I got has the adjustable magazine so you can adjust for different nail angles....not sure why there are so many different nail angles for nail guns, but there are like 4 or 5 I think. I also have the coil roofing nailer, pin nailer, wide crown and narrow crown staplers, brad nailer, and finish nailer. They all work great, and my brad nailer has got to be around 20 years old, it was the first tool I bought from Harbor Freight. It still works great. The Central Pneumatic Gravity Feed HVLP spray gun works great, and many people have videos painting their cars with them, with great success. I painted my garden trailer with one a few weeks ago and it turned out great. The biggest issue is people don't take the time to do all the prep work before painting stuff, they automatically blame the paint application device, rather than their lack of time spent prepping the area to be painted, and not properly setting up the paint gun is another common problem. I haven't picked up one of those portable bandsaws, or the mount they have yet, but its on my list. I have the Hercules 12" dual bevel sliding compound miter saw and the Hercules 12-1/2" thickness planer. Both work extremely well. The miter saw didn't require any adjustments out of the box, and the thickness planer uses 3 knives rather than 2 like many other more common name models. I have a Bauer 6 gallon wet/dry vac, and it works just as well as my Shop Vacs have....and you can get bags for the Bauer vacuums as well as replacement filters.

I've got the Titanium 125 and love it. I've had a 23 gallon air compressor for more than 10 years. I don't think they make it anymore, but I'd definitely buy a similar model. My jack is about 10 years old and still working great with frequent use. Last I knew, that Earthquake impact is just an IR 2235 and if you need to rebuild it, you can order all the parts from IR. I've got three different angle grinders from HF and they gave me a free one last week, so even if they aren't the most amazing grinders, they all work well enough and I've only hit the price of one name brand tool. My 1/2 in drive impact sockets held me through 12 years of being a professional mechanic and I only managed to break the 19mm. I have those folding utility knives all over the place. I have a few of the minis from next to the register in tool boxes, junk drawer, and cars. They're just handy. I have several sets of those ratchet straps. Can't complain. I did some automotive paint with the $15 HPLV sprayer. Can't complain. I didn't bother cleaning it after doing clear coat and just threw it away. Next time I do automotive paint, I'll probably do the same. It's the kind of thing I do so rarely that I don't want to store the supplies.

Well, there goes the savings account....again. 🤣 I'm a DeWalt fan-boi, so I go there instead of the Hercules or Bauer. However, the Hercules battery bandsaw is on the list of "gotta gets", as is a larger air compressor. I have a full set of older Craftsman tools (screwdrivers, sockets etc), but also have a more than full set of Pittsburg and Quinn that I use much more often, including the big 1/2" Quinn torque wrench, which was used heavily when I rebuilt the Harley. After that chore, I had it calibrated at my old job, and it was still well within military specs (26 years Army. I still know a lot of guys in the shops). 'Ol Harbor Freight has come a long way since their "disposable" tools selection. It's now my first choice when a glitch in the project arises.

I live in Georgia(not US state, it is small country), and sometimes I desperately wish to have something like Harbor Freight in my small country, why you will ask me? Because shops that we have here are expensive as hell and sell low quality stuff in some of them, like if those impacts in video costs like 100 buck, here in my country it will cost like 150-200, so it is really pain in our ass.

I always wondered and sorry if this is a stupid question but how can you tell quickly if you should use a 14mm or a 9/16? Is the shape of the bolt head different on metric over SAE?
@-DIYPRO-

Yes, bolt heads should all have markings. You can google search, "metric vs standard bolt head markings" and there are tons of charts OR just try both and see which has the better fit!

@@m.t.v.7934 SAE has radial lines, the number indicates the tensile strength of the bolt. Metric uses a one decimal place number, first number is nominal tensile , number after decimal represents a ratio that indicates brittleness/yield strength characteristics ... I'm summarizing google for deep dive.
