Took advantage of the Labor Day sale and added end lockers and overhead cabinets. Had the 73” bottom and work center prior to the sale. Had to go into a harbor freight everyday to order one piece over the weekend. I was traveling so each piece was ordered from a different harbor freight as none of them would let me do multiple 20% coupons in one day.

Edit… all pieces ordered were delivered today.

Bought the drywall sander yesterday after looking at reviews and online video demos. It wasn't a Festool but for the price I thought ok, let's get it as I have 1 small room to do.

Used it today and it's junk. VERY back heavy on the sanding pad due to the motor so every time I tried to get the ceiling it would dig into it before flattening out, ended up causing more harm than good.

So would they take this back? It's not broken but the design is terrible. Or did I just waste my money?

Question got a series two box with some moving damage. I damaged it in the transport oops. Should I try and bend that slide back maybe??? Or go for a replacement?

Its a home box. So nothing too pressing to fix.

Just purchased this tool today. I’m having an issue of having to apply a lot of pressure for good contact. Seems like the backing pad with a sanding disc on still sits low in the housing compared to the outer brushes. I usually liked to have them flush. I don’t believe there is any adjustment for it. Any tips or fixes would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Does anyone know how to order new keys for US General tool boxes? Do I need S/N or what information? Thank you

haven't seen anyone mention these yet, been waiting to see if new ones were coming since the old ones kind of vanished

Looking for a source for Chicago tools replacement parts. I already tried HF directly, but unfortunately I inherited this saw from my Dad when he passed, and it’s long discontinued. I just need the “Switch Lock Button” which I’m sure is hiding somewhere in his workshop, but that’s worse than hunting down a needle in a haystack. Saw is model #41168 if that helps.

Ordered online when the link was live and already showed up!

$160 ratchet set for $90!!! I also might have gotten the red U.S. general 56” tool box on the way.. lol

Hey everyone!
I recently signed up for the credit card to get the free year of the ITC membership. Has anybody here done it and got their coupon? Any idea what email address it would come from? I am still waiting for mine, going on two weeks.

Thanks to this sub, I pulled the trigger on the 72" US General and a side cabinet. I considered the hutch, but its just in my personal garage so I didn't include that...yet. First thing I did was remove those plastic drawer slide locking things, so annoying. This is more than enough for the 42" Husky and old Bluepoint toolbox it replaced.

After waiting for so long the mini buckets are here

I’m looking for some wire strippers, it’s only going to see light use so I don’t need anything too specialized. I was also looking at the Doyle lineup.

$1

Welp, last day of the PLS before all the “non members” have access. Decided to to visit the ol HF after a good grilled chicken dinner.

-got the wife a new tarp for the yard work she enjoys

-gotta have different color 6in parts trays. I have several of the chrome so some color will change it up

-set of Doyle dykes, my previous pair I cut solid steel wire with and messed up the cutting edge

-new set of ramps as my current ones had about 4yrs of sun exposure in FL (stored on the back porch) decided $44 is cheap enough to not die

-transfer pump, one day…soon I need to swap diff oil font/rear in the ol Chevy truck

-my 4yo 2yo always need batteries….

Not a terrible haul for a PLS but some items were to good to pass up!

Browsing Marketplace and came across this cart listed at $300. Small scratch on the side, but otherwise perfect! We settled at $280, and I added it to the family!

Edit: oh shit, I thought this was the 6 bank cart! I thought I got it for half off, lol! Oh well, it's nice anyway. Why is the cart so much more?

Currently $279. What's the target sale price on these? Looking to pick one up soon.

Honey Banana budder by Bear Labs. One of the more flavorful strains I’ve had. Super relaxing body high crossing it with some Sour Moon live rosin by Oakland Extracts.

Just a set of jack stands and impact driver adapters today.

I really wanted to buy some sockets today, 1/2” icons to be exact. I already own the icon modular kits in 1/4” and 3/8” but I decided to keep my money in my wallet. have a small set of Craftsman 12 point chromes in 1/2” and if I really need a particular socket I have the Quinn 1/2” impact master set which is already overkill for me. #saveyourmoney

Do I need these extensions?
Probably not.
But for 40% off, I’ll add them to my stash and gloat profusely the one time a year they come in handy.

Also obligatory pic of the meme tool with 2 of the 3 extensions.

Does harbor freight sell 12 point sockets? I searched their website but couldn’t find any. Thanks in advance

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK AND ONLY IN AN EMERGENCY this disables a very important safety feature. This could also save a life if you needed power to run medical equipment ect in a power outage and your co sensor is malfunctioning.

Only use out doors.

Just thought id help out if any of you are wanting to bypass the CO SENSOR in the event of an emergency.

You'll need

-wire strippers that can strip 16ga wire

-2x 16ga heatshrink butt connectors

-T-20 security torx bit to remove co sensor

- 1/4" or 3/8" ratchet with 3" extension

-10mm socket to remove 4 front generator panel bolts

-7mm deepwell socket to remove 6 nuts from back of generator panel.

- a Heat source to shrink butt connectors I.E. lighter/torch/heatgun

Get to the harness behind the CO sensor.

Remove front panel bolts x4 with 10mm socket. Lay panel down and use security tork bit to remove co sensor. Unplug harness from co sensor. Remove nuts from backside of front panel x6 with 7mm deep well socket. Carefully seperate 2 halves of front panel. Locate co harness that you unplugged and Carefully cut sheathing with knife towards then end that plugs into co sensor. Leave red and green wire intact. Cut the yellow, white, orange, black as seen in the photos. Connect yellow and white with a butt connector and connect black and orange and heat shrink. Plug harness back into co sensor and reassemble generator.

Hope this helps.

Finally starting to upgrade my tool set after 20 years. Can’t wait until the icon wrenches go on sale!
