Re: The Good, The Bad and Ugly from Harbor Freight
I have had success with the following:
1000 lbs small furniture dolly ($9.99 on sale) Work great for trans, motors, furniture, and even engines. Not good for wheel dollys and a 95 explorer. Did the job, but bent the wheels on one. Straightened them out, and it works for light duty stuff still. I've bought 12 so far .
1000lbs 4 wheel Engine stand. Held a Buick 350 for over a year without tipping. Then held a Pontiac 3.8L motor for 2 years and then an old 3400 motor for 6 months. After all that, there was a slight downward bend, but still held weight and moved easily.
Palm sander. OK, but not for heavy work.
1/2" Beaker bar. Don't even bother. 1/2 a turn and the end broke off.
Glove like people mentioned are nice
4.5" cut off wheel 10 pack worked decent, but do have a shorter life than others.
$10 socket set. Surprisingly these work well as a junkyard tool set. Keep it in my bag and use it most often so I don't need to worry about leaving it there. Still break easily if you have rusty bolts, but work decent otherwise.
1/2" deep well impact set. Bought the metric one and it still works good today.
Die grinder - Unused as of yet.
Air Hammer - Used once. Was ok, but not great. need to try again before making a decision.
