A breaker bar is a breaker bar, right?ITT: Shit tier tools
>Buys breaker bar.>It broke like it claimed it would.>Still mad. I don't get it.
>>2967819
>>2967814What were you trying to take apart?
>>2967885A broken blade off a bush hog
>buy sandpaper>not even made out of sand
>>2967886impact is the only answer
>>2967950Yeah I'm gonna have to get a 1/2"-3/4" adapter because the only socket I've got that fits it is 3/4" drive
>>2967951Do yourself a favor and get a 3/4" drive impact of you're going to work on equipment much... I picked up a 3/4 Ingersoll rand air impact at an auction for $15. Sucker packs some serious whallop.
>>2967953Yeah I got one of the corded Bauer 1/2" impacts, it's pretty stout. If it doesn't do the needful, I'll fish around for a 3/4"
>>2967954Invest in some antisieze while you're at it. Even on a bush hog your bolts shouldn't be that hard to get off.
>>2967909but... but sandpaper does have sand in it. you can even get sanding cloth made of silica wool. some sanding discs have fiberglass backings. wtf
>>2968044Cheap horrible sandpaper could have sand still. Anything decent will at the very least have aluminum oxide grit.
>>2967814breaker? hardly knew her...
>>2968420granules of metal oxide are often at least the right color and consistency, they are sand-adjacentand sandpaper being so simple and disposable, why would you ever NOT get the cheap bulk horrible stuff. it's not load bearing
>>2967886that's a job for an impact gun dude. don't breaker bar what you can brrt first. the intense jiggle action of the impact does more than sheer torque of breaker bar. also, oil helps, even after just a quick break. anything helps.
>>2968534You ever get sandpaper from dollar tree? It's real bad. Like barely even useable for 30 seconds before all the grit falls off bad. I prefer to spend a bit more for sandpaper. I still don't shill for 3m cubitron stuff or anything insanely expensive like that though.
>>2968576>You ever get sandpaper from dollar tree? It's real bad. Like barely even useable for 30 seconds before all the grit falls off bad.is it not supposed to do that because ive had that experience with actual tools bought from actual stores, i thought sandpaper is basically ablative by nature
not really a "tool" but maybe 1 in 10 tubes of rubber cement i ever buy actually work. doesnt matter what brand. it's basically random and the odds are against me. tempted to start patching tires/tubes with fucking flex tape at this point
>>2968651>is it not supposed to do thatNot to that extreme. Get good quality sand paper with a quality matrix and adhesive (anything wet/dry rated is a good start) and your sanding will begin to suck a lot less.
>>2968940I don't buy tubes of it, but rather cans with the screw top and applicator brush. I had one can of slime brand rubber cement I bought that was bad as in it still looked good and acted right but the patches wouldn't stick properly. It took a bit to make the connection between it being the glue that was the problem and pissed me off to the extreme before figuring it out. Never again.

>>2969072>yeah sure it costs 4x as much and breaks just as often, but at least there's no store that you can run down to in 5 minutes and get a free replacement.
>>2967886put some heat in it
>>2969083>4xIf you're lucky.
>>2967814>me chinese>me play joke>me use red loctite as a jokechang defeated his zipperheaded cousins allen socketscore 0 for tsc jobshart tools. although it held in 2nd gear on the zingzing gun. 3rd gear instantly smoked it
>>2971056If you suspect it is loctited then apply heat to soften it.
>>2971089pneumatics ass-u-mees 545 which should come apart easythis was just karmic payback for me constantly buttering shit up with green apple flavor retainer from hell
>>2971092Every time I have fucked with Chinese assembled pipe fittings it is some grainy nasty looking white shit that comes crumbling out from between the threads. and yeah it's locked real good and heat definitely does help. Also I'm with you on using the green sleeve retainer on shit I absolutely don't want coming apart...
>>2971092620 fucks. We used to make bit extensions for our CNC router with a 12x1" bar of 01 reamed out to a half inch on the end and just retaining compound holding a router bit in. Put hundreds of hours on those never had one slip, even with a crash so bad it bent the bar at a 30° angle.
>>2967814Why do you think anyone who knows what they’re doing trashed all their breaker bars and only use ratchets for everything > but that’s the wrong tool! Not when harbor freight sells THAT gas a breaker bar the ratchets might stand a chance of holding up
>>2971332>trashed all their breaker barsYou're a fucking moron.
>>2971332Yeah never give anyone advice ever again
>>2967814fucking awesome when the original dookieacell batteries leak and corrode your not cheap meterbut kudos to fluke for designing it to mostly contain the shit without it being able to ruin the guts
>>2967950Or a non chineseum breaker bar with a reinforced swivel.
>>2967909dumb frog posterimagine being this wrong
>>2971056>red loctiteoh godthe memoriesTHE MEMORIES>>2971089ur not wrong
>>2973446always change ur shipped battery out with copperheadsno shit those literal chinese knock offs leaked lmao
>>2973874I bought a flashlight from a junk store once that had Pemasanig batteries xD
