What did you buy this week?

Too many Kubotas · Sunday at 5:06 PM

Bought a set of tires, and also a torque multiplier good for 5,000 ft.-lbs.

For those times when the 2,500 ft.-lb. impact isn't quite enough.

Two things:
A headband magnifier. This one has LED illumination and assortment of interchangeable lenses. Rechargeable batteries plugs into a phone charger. $26
A transport chair I ordered for my Mother who unfortunately passed away and never used it.
I was going to return it but it's fantastic for working on cars or something on the workbench where a stool is too high, not working bent over. Arms tilt up, easily folds and brakes if needed. $80.View attachment 4516379 View attachment 4516380 View attachment 4516381

Back around '07 we had a project on the Blue Mountain and Kittatinny turnpike tunnels. The tunnels had different dimensions. The older (by maybe 30 years) Westbound tunnel is about 18" narrower and has less space above the ceiling (unlike the Eastbound that was about 10' or better the entire length). At the portals there's plenty of headroom for the first maybe 100' and then the roof tapers down so you almost have to duckwalk. One of the fellas had his wife bring an old wheelchair from the rehab place where she worked and it worked great.

Didn’t buy these this week, but finally made space in the garage so I could pull the car in to get them installed.

rears on the wife’s Subaru. Dealer wanted 700 bucks. I did them for 400 and the only reason it was that much is I had to buy a odb2 scanner to properly release the electronic parking brakes. Better quality parts than the crap Subaru would have used. Shout out to Rock Auto.

The gas savings alone pay for my annual Costco membership. Many days they are 40-50 cents per gallon cheaper than the other stations in the area. The downside is it’s often a 15 minute wait to get to the pumps due to lines.

Easily!

I bought a new pair of felt pak boots.

My old old ones were completely shot, so last year I bought a new set, and because one foot was swelled a bit from an injury, I thought nothing of the fact that one boot fit a bit tighter. I thought no big deal, the swelling will go down and I lived with it!

Now it's a year later and that boot is still tighter than I want, so I took a good look at it, AND that dam-boot is one size smaller than the other!!

It's too late to take them back now, so I ordered a new set in the bigger size, and YES I check the size on both boots! lol

BTW, both sets were FREE, because I bought them with my Cabelas points.

That's funny! Somewhere in cyberspace, another fella is posting the same thing!
