Harbor Freight 20 Bin Cases

I used to have a ton of those sorters with the small drawers on them on my bench and while they worked well they were mainly just a pain to find stuff and i would often overlook what i already had and couldnt find what i needed. They just led to a bunch of wasted time while trying to get something done. I stumbled across these cases to hold small bike parts and they are just like the Stanley ones but much much cheaper. Each little bin comes out which is handy. All the bins are interchangeable too so you can change and mix up the bins in the cases.

Pros:
1. The bins can be moved around in the cases.

2. You can carry them to your workspace which is awesome because i like to work outside on nice      days and not in the garage and if you need to bring them somewhere you can throw them in your car or whatever for that.

3. You look straight down through the cover and see exactly what you have and how many very quickly.

4. The hinges and latches on them seem good enough and when  carrying them around items inside dont move from bin to bin. There are little tabs preventing this on the cover

5. They are stackable.

6. They make a deeper 8 bin model that can stack with these for bigger items although i havent gotten any of those. I may pick up one in the future when i need it.

.7 The Price. They can be had for $5.99 on sale.

Probably really good for crafters too ....anything with small parts or bits.

Verdict: Highly Recommended.

Stanley Insulated Coffee Mug

This thing is fantastic. I believe it comes in 3 different sizes. I am a bit of a thermos  connoisseur    meaning i have a lot of them. Everything from vintage ones to food jars to mugs like this. In my opinion this is WAY better than Kleen Kanteen or Hydroflask (Yes i have both). Those appear to be more of a fad. IF you want something that works well, get this Stanley. i have the 16oz version. It keep stuff hot for a very long time; Same with cold.  I think they run ~$20 and you can get them at Amazon or locally at Walmart. I wont go into that because nobody cares. Pour your liquid into it and then drink it. If you are pouring your liquid into it to let it sit for a week and then complain when it isnt still the same temperature, you are kind of an idiot. The pictured lid style is now harder to find but i believe it looks and works better than the latest model. Yes i have both. The current model is also very very good and would be my second choice and it is ...

Anker Rechargeable Bolder LC90 LED Flashlight

 This Anker LC90 is really good for the money. Great Flashlight...but more importantly you can run it as a bike light using the mount recommended in another post just below. I had to shim it with a small piece of plastic from a milk carton but it worked out great. Its a bit larger and heavier than your normal small pocket LED flashlight but its SUPER bright and works really well on the bike. You will surely be seen with this thing.  Verdict: Recommended.  Link:  https://www.amazon.com/Anker-Tactical-Flashlight-Rechargeable-Water-Resistant/dp/B01KH2JP5G

Ryobi 1/2 inch impact...non brushless

 I finally got around to picking up a cordless impact. This is not the brushless version but im not sure why you would need that over this.  I have used this regularly with the big batteries and it does everything and then some.  Removed 174 ft lb 35mm axle nut on a truck. Removes lug nuts no problem.  Pulled all my shocks out front and rear to put in new ones....no problem Remove steering rack bolt at 120 - 140ft lbs no problem ...and im in the rust belt. Massive corrosion on everything. Its a monster for the price. It runs $140 but you can get it much cheaper if you watch for sales or bundles. I think i gave $99.  Verdict: Recommended, Link:  https://www.homedepot.com/p/RYOBI-18-Volt-ONE-Cordless-3-Speed-1-2-in-Impact-Wrench-Tool-Only-P261/205885687
