[TestEquipTrader] A Source for Tools Etc

Glenn Little All Messages By This Member #49261 I get my tools from the local pawn shop. They almost always have sockets, wrenches, hex wrenches, screw drivers and pliers. I have found Greenlee power socket testers, cable testers and battery operated power tools. Machinist tools are common. The prices are good: I usually pick out 15 to 20 items and they take $10.00 for the lot. This includes Craftsman and Snap-On tools. The pawn shop offers no warranty, but, Sears will replace a bad tool without question. 73 Glenn WB4UIV toggle quoted message Show quoted text At 05:47 PM 1/19/2013, J.

They actually have a very nice selection of various kinds of fine pliers, including needle and round nose, and various cutters. For things needing 'a bit of adjustment' they also had a fairly good collection of small hammers. Prices were not cheap ($10 - $20) but today, there are few places where you can get a good look at tools before buying. Certainly, they have a far better selection than Sears or most chain hardware stores. They also had some nice, small, thin metal sheets.
