Harbor Freight haul

[John Rudd]

Look what I brought back from Reno.....
Cost me less than $60......



Cheap as chips or what?.....
The battery drill was $19-99.... cant buy one for that from Screwfix, £ for $.....

yeah... where I used to live, there was a HF 5 minutes from me. Spent a lot of money there!

[John Rudd]

....and if weight hadnt been an issue, I'd have spent more....

[Brass_Machine]

I bet. So easy to go there and get one time use stuff.

I bet. So easy to go there and get one time use stuff.

Some of the stuff they sell is pretty good though....and there are bargains to be had too, like the two boxes of carbide tipped tools I got for $3-99 each less than half price and less than 80c a piece....

Sadly though the airline fittings are not compatible with my existing stuff..(slightly smaller) but they'll get used....

But the digital calipers were a bargain....

How was the Air Show John, did you get plenty of pictures?

[John Rudd]

The air show was excellent and yup got lots of snaps...
I guess I ought to start a new thread and post up the pictures if I can remember how to attach them from PB....( any help appreciated.... )

John, a US standard pipe tap would go a long way in making those air fittings compatible. Should be a 1/4" NPT (national pipe thread) If you can't find one let me know and I will send you one.

Hmmm Still no Reno pics, It must be taking some time to sort them out, waiting patiently though.
