18" Magnetic Storage Bar and Tool Holder Review

18 Magnetic Storage Bar and Tool Holder
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just hung this thing up in the closet where I hang my tools. So far it's holding 9 screwdrivers, 3 chisels, a 16 oz and a 22 oz hammer, and finally a 2 lb. sledge. (I tried hanging the monkey wrench, but I think that was too much for the magnet with everything else on it. Believe me, there isn't room for it anyway.) This magnet is STRONG! I was worried that the tools might fall off easily, but I don't see that being a problem now.
Basically, I'm really impressed with how great this thing works, and I plan on buying a few more for my shop and around the house.
Just be sure to screw it into the studs or something that will hold all of the weight that you'll put on it. It comes with large sheet-rock anchors, and some heavy duty screws, but I would bet that the sheet-rock will give way before this magnet does! If you plan on using it to hold kitchen knives or something light like that, the screws and anchors should work fine though.
(Also, the rack doesn't come with wood screws, so you'll probably need to use you own if you decide to hang it the way I suggested. But it only needs two screws, so no big deal.)

I had purchased a cheap CV Boot Clamp Plier along with this one.
The cheap one broke after about 6 uses but this one is excellent and will allow you to properly use torque wrenches with it, if you desire.
Definitely buy this one, you won't regret it!
thanks for reading this review!

Lisle 40210 Green 3/8" Magnetic Socket Holder Review

Lisle 40210 Green 3/8 Magnetic Socket Holder
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Sockets have been the bane of my existence. No matter how carefully I put them down, they seem to end up rolling around on the floor or in the toolchest. I used to waste a good 5-10 minutes per task simply sorting through them to find the right one. Given some of my projects would require 3-4 different socket sizes, this chewed up time. I tried the vertical plastic holders sold at Sears; these are the types where you drop the socket on a stick. Fail. The sticks would break off, deep and large-diameter sockets wouldn't fit properly/securely, the whole tray would slide around and they weren't really portable.
This tray has solved my problem. There's a long magnet underneath the tray to hold the tray to the toolchest or other metallic surface. There's a magnet at each socket slot, holding the socket in the slot. First, the bad news: they really are green, the green is an ugly fluorescent green and they are designed for graded sockets. Basically, you can't put 10 24 mm deep sockets in them and they don't look pretty. Now, the good news: the magnets are strong, sockets fit, hex bits fit, torx bits fit, there's a carrying handle and they are fairly rugged. I turned them upside down and shook them pretty vigorously and couln't get any of the sockets to fall out.
Overall, A+.

Wilmar W1069 22-Piece SAE/Metric Polished Combo Wrench Set Review

Sad to say that when the wrenches arrived they were in pretty ugly shape. Don't let the pretty chrome fool you, these are punched out of low quality steel in India. When they arrived the #19 wrench was bent from shipping. It is of course my fault for thinking that wrenches could be such a good deal. I honestly doubt even wal-mart could sell these things. Between the pitted metal, the bent end, and wrench mouths that aren't quite right (as in off center) these were a complete mistake. Kudos to Amazon for a great return policy

This wrench holder is priced amazing, and very sturdy, the only issue I have with it is that some of my larger wrenches would not fit in the slot.
if you have snap on or some of the thinner brands there should not be a problem but on the bigger wrenches I had to bend a tab down and use 2 slots to hold 1 wrench. Good thing it was cheep so that I had bought 2 of them.

Hi-Lift Jack LR-200 Loc-Rac Jack Mounting System Review

Hi-Lift Jack LR-200 Loc-Rac Jack Mounting System
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Go to the Hi-Lift web site ([...]) and look up the LR-200 LocRac Jack Mounting System. You'll see what you are really getting. I figured this out before I ordered and what I received is what I expected. Hopefully Amazon corrected the image by now - I reported it on 5/1/2010. As for the Loc-Rac, there are instructions on the back of the packaging, though they are very generic. It didn't mount right up to my 2009 Chevy Silverado Crew Cab 4x4. I had to add a 1.5" spacer between the hinged part of the lock and the truck bed. The problem is that the bed of the truck is recessed halfway down the length of the bed where the hinged piece of the latch is supposed to mount. Adding a spacer wasn't hard, but I had to buy some 1.5" slotted square tubing to make it work. Even though I only needed a 4" piece of tubing, I had to spend $20 at a local home improvement store for a 48" piece. I also had to purchase a few 5/16" bolts and nuts to mount the square tubing, but that cost only $2.00. Lastly, the lock they send with the package looks like a lock you would find on cheap luggage. Deciding not to protect a $70+ jack with a 70 cent lock, I went to a local auto parts store and purchased a coupler lock (used for trailers) for $15.00, meaning my install cost was $37+tax, excluding the cost of the Loc-Rac. In case you are curious, a 60" Hi-Lift will mount inside the bed of a 2009 Silverado Crew Cab short bed truck.

Order item on 2/25/2010, Received the on 3/25/2010. Would have been quicker but you wouldn't ship to Alaska. Had to have items shipped to a friend in lower 48, then he shipped to me. I would order more but the shipping is just too much of a hassle.

I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of these wrenches. I have several individual wrenches that cost more than twice as much as this entire set, yet the quality is almost identical. I have used these Wilmar wrenches for a number of small jobs and they performed perfectly and show not signs of wear.

Crawford-Lehigh 36360-6 Ultra Hold 36-by-5-Inch Eight-Hook Tool Rack Review

Average Reviews:

Every winter I loose a couple of the hooks as they can't handle weight in cold conditions. I live in NH and in the winter it can get a little cold. Most of the time the garage is about 40-50 degrees but when I need to do work outside and keep the doors open it can get a little colder. In these conditions, the plastic hooks will break when you try to hang anything from them. I would not buy these again.
