None at all. I was pleasantly suprized. Now if I put that shield on the 3/4 in the rain it foggs up. Very happy as my only other option is goggles.

I'll look at what's in Home Depot whenever I get there, might have something that isn't in their internet selection.

I've seen several kinds like that, it can be handy. My primary set is Mac, has hex's at the base of the shank, next to the handle. I've slipped a box end wrench over them to get that extra leverage, works good. I use those old style craftsman for punches, guide pins, and levers.

I have a craftsman ratchet that's been replaced five or six times. And a hammer that's never been used.






Just another post *****!

Default long time no see!

I ain't stopped in for a while because I've been caught up in a long distance relationship with a lady in NE Texas. I'm happy to report that I have now ridden 12 months straight! Been going down there (yup, there too) once a month to visit and ride. She owns a 2011 Heritage and bought me a Honda Shadow to ride when I went to visit. Texas roads are awesome! (what's a pothole?) Especially after riding on Minnesota crud roads for 40 years! Last week I took vacation and we rode from her place, Longview area, to Leaky Tx and did the 3 sisters. Along the way, we stopped in Austin and traded the Honda for a 2001 Fatboy! I'm now the proud owner of a northern and a southern Harley and life is good! Want to give a shout out to KR, Scotty and Doc! how y'all doing?
