Never broke one of their impact sockets even using them on my IR 1" air impact driver

If you want easy to mount weights, peruse FBMP or Flea Bay for Olympic Weight plates. You can get them used for cheap and they come up to 100 pounds per plate.

Have to say the guy across the road sprung for an EGO riding mower, got half his lawn mowed and it died. Went back the next day for a real gas powered mower and probably saved some jack as well.

Gee, I love my wife and my dog but one thing I would never love is my tractors as they are machines as in not able to love me back... They are for work and to make my life easier and that is it. They get well fed (diesel fuel) and reqular maintenance and greasing and once in a while, a bath but...

All depends on your intended use. I prefer the hydraulic shuttle on my Kubota's as it totally eliminates the dry chutch and the HST still has a dry clutch. Got well over 6000 hours on both my Kubota's (each) and I've never had to adjust the wet packs ever. I use them hard all the time.

If the sub structure is good, replace the deck with synthetic dimensional decking and forget about it forever or until the substructure fails. No upkeep other than a pressure wash infrequently. We did ours and all 3 rentals 3 years ago and everyone looks like new. We used Trex and stailless...

Been popping woodchucks a lot lately and I like watching the local family of Bald Eagles feasting on their remains. When the carcass get small enough for them to carry it off, it leaves, never to be seen again. Being predators I guess an 'easy' meal is just that. Think I've dispatched around...

Amy and I always leave a 20% cash tip unless the waitstaff is very poor and then it's still 15%

Far as the inverter genny is concerned, I bought a Champion years ago and it runs like a top. Sounds like it's a motor issue not the inverter head.

I own and use their Pro-Tig 205 Tig welder and a pair of plasma cutters, one high amp for the CNC plasma table and the other for general shop use and my employees use them all the time as well. So far, 3 years and 0 failures.

You are missing out of some great tools.

Looks like a great way to get Carpal Tunnel.

Emission realted components are Federally mandated... 5 years.

I don't. HF has really upped their game the last couple years. They still sell crap but they sell quality stuff as well. You just have to pay for it, like anything else.
