Yes, I've been watching him as well. He actually put the "new" roof on in the episode on Sunday.

Holy moly... are any of you on the FB group "Ford Small Block Windsor Group"? A couple guys posted pics of their mangled oil pump drive shafts... Makes me want to get something more heavy duty for mine.

I noticed that the Husky tap and die sets have a lifetime warranty on them. So... that's a killer deal for me. I ordered a set last night. I've been using HF tap/die sets for far too long. They do alright as thread chasers, but I don't trust them much for cutting into new metal.

I like the "no questions asked" lifetime warranty on it. The Husky warranty has been good to me.

I remember the old Craftsman lifetime warranty. My grandfather was a Sears Hardware manager from the time he returned from WWII until 1981 or so. He'd roll over in his grave if he knew how Craftsman tools were today. I have a bunch of his old Craftsman stuff ranging from the 50's to the early 80's. I have a few Husky tools and like them but, nothing compares to the hand tools of yesteryear.

I purchased this set from them. Well they no longer sell the set it seems. The set was 3/8 - 1.5.

I think I told you guys about the Husky ratcheting wrenches, and the bit set, right? I broke my T50 torx, and my 17mm ratcheting wrench was stripped inside. The manager told me to go get the rest of the sets, and he would give me a brand new set in exchange. So I got both of these sets "renewed" because one tool broke. I admit... the torx bit broke with my impact.
