yes, but I have no ATF, and no vehicles that require it. I would do that if I had a wrench I couldn't open easily.

Wrenches. Dropped my 5/16 behind a water valve in my dads truck couldn’t get it unless the valve came out first. Socket would not fit on the bolt so I went down to Tractor Supply and got these. I checked Ace which was closer and what you pay for one there I got this whole set for. It’s a good set for the other truck to keep in there.
you need a magnet on a stick to get you old wrench back lol

I had one lol. But it wasn’t the flexible one so it would not pick it up and everything behind there it was sticking too. But hey I didn’t pay for the wrenches so some free new tools for me.
. Next time I’ll bring an extra 5/16.I had one with a stainless steel (removable) collar. with the colar it only picks up iron at the front

Blue Point GA-472 grease gun. Got two of them, one is going to my friend in Indiana. $7.99 each I could not beat that. That’s why I love Ollies I find great stuff there they also had some LubriMatic for $9.99 but these were $7.99 made by Snap-on I wasn’t passing that up. They had a shelf full of them. If anyone here wants one let me know and I can send you one for the price plus shipping or if the shipping isn’t too much then I can cover it. I couldn’t believe it when I seen it. A $50 grease gun for $8.

What a difference a real foam gun makes. And a short gun too. Got the stainless one that the Ammo NYC guy uses.
5" angle grinder, cordless. Uses the same batteries and charger as my impact wrench and circular saw
I got one with battery and charger though.
All I need now is a cordless drill

no, I think it's a Chinese product made for Aldi
I needed an air hammer with more power than the small air hammer I have. I got what I felt was a good deal a CP717.
Yo, Nash: I think the anti-seize is to catch whatever is cleared from the threads. The age-old application is grease.
The beast!

Parents took me to Sears today. It’s the one closest to us since ours closed it was Greensboro North Carolina. They bought me these tools. Sorry about the dirty stairs lol need to sweep them. Phillips 3&4 bits. 30mm wrench and a Craftsman 1/4x8 screwdriver. They have been buying me stuff ever since I graduated college earlier this month with a 4.0 GPA and made the president’s honor roll.
They were super nice and took me to the Apple store too to buy me an adapter so I can use regular headphones in my iPhone which you had to buy something if you came in otherwise they wouldn’t let you in so I didn’t really need it but I got it. My parents paid for that too then they tried to sell my parents some iPhones since they don’t have an iPhone
. They were going to buy me another case too since I liked one but I wasn’t going to let them pay $50 for a phone case.I enjoyed myself in Sears and the manager said they will be closing that one probably by beginning of next year they just haven’t announced it yet. And you can really tell that too because they aren’t restocking anything, what they have is what they have.
Sorry if the Apple store isn’t tool related but I like sharing about my trip and I haven’t been in an Apple store since 2015 when I was in New York with my middle school band.
