    One of my favorite HF tools is a $1 or so plastic caliper. It's accurate enough for rough measurement, which is all that I usually need, and I don't have to worry about dropping, getting oil or grease on or otherwise damaging my digital one, which I use when I need more precision and accuracy.
    They also have some decent rotary tool and die grinder bits, and I like their hardware kits, like hose clamps, o-rings, nuts, bolts and washers, etc. And I've found that their pliers are perfectly fine for what I need to use them for, especially the long reach ones. It's not the place to get high-end, power or precision tools, but for everyday tools and parts, they're hard to beat, especially when on sale.

    Hmm, that scroll saw might be worth looking at for $90....I don't use one very often, but when I need one, it would work fine for the little stuff I do.
    Also, that Icon stool would be a great thing to pickup too, might get a couple, one for the house and one for work.
    I didn't know that Quinn had the digital micrometers....the Pittsburgh one I have doesn't work anymore, well the digital part don't, I just use the manual read the scale method now, but a new one that actually works would be nice LOL.
    I've found here lately I haven't been making nearly as many trips to HF, I've pretty much got what I really need, so now the only time I really have to make the trip is if I need to restock the disposable supplies.
    I do need to get some more work gloves though....and they discontinued the ones I've been using of course....so I'll have to try some different ones the next time and see what works. I use them for work, so they only last a couple weeks anyhow LOL.

  • @euclidmegara4120
    @euclidmegara4120 2 месяца назад

    Just no on the cheap digital calipers. The cheap ones burn through batteries even when off so half the time you pull it out to use it, you have to find a new cell...or remove the cell every time. Mitutouy, SPI, Starrett, etc. batteries last WAY longer!
    Also, the cheap ones lose their datum all the time, so you have to zero them out before almost every measurement if you are doing anything where you actually care about precision.
    I used to have cheap digital calipers. Good calipers are 10 to 20x the price of cheap ones, but in my opinion, worth every penny!
    (I now use the Mitutouy solar 6" calipers so now I NEVER have to worry about dead batteries and it's waterproof which turns out to be really handy when working around boats!)

    Be careful buying tool sets at Harbor freight. I bought 2 sets for a couple jobs and one didnt come with a 13 MM wrench!!!!! The one thats needed!!! The 8MM wrench was such poor quality it didnt even grip a nut!! Then the allen set was missing the most important allen tool doing my brakes!!! Still they are good deals but damn that was irritating living 20 miles from any store with your only vehicle broke down.
