    Anyone have a BMP/OT-90?

    Hello, I know this thread is old but I need some help. We got an OT-90 and I am looking for an English manual. It is fun to drive but I think we have an air leak as it does not want to shift...guessing it is an air shifter? A member of our foundation bought this thing and had it delivered but...

    What to put in a M151 for display?

    I have found many a empty rifle cartridge in MVs, usually in the strangest of places.

    MEP 003 frequency meter

    I had to find multiple gauges for my MEP 701a generators. I also found that the new A&M gauges were $$$. Coleman's and Delks Surplus will both pull meter and transducers from old gensets. It is a 50/50 shot if they work but they are OEM if that is important. I ordered 7 gauges from Coleman's...

    If I find another Snap-On box who knows...may keep it red or desert tan. Desert tan for sure. May have a line on another Snap-On 7 drawer roll cart and if I get it desert all the way!

    New to me (GMTK) General Mechanics Tool Kit

    Carnac, you are correct it does have SAE and Metric wrenches, sockets and allen wrenches. Wrenches are SAE up to 1" and 21 mm metric. I had too look at everything again. I was so happy I just gave it a once over and posted. I am missing a pair of long nose Vise Grips also. As for...

    New to me (GMTK) General Mechanics Tool Kit

    I have been looking for one for a long time. I had a friend keep an eye out also. He purchased a pallet of them and then combined tools to make complete sets. He got 5 kits out of a whole pallet. It is a nice mobile set up that works well on its own or it can be set on top of a rolling cart...

    If I had purchased the box new I would have been much more reluctant to mess with it, but I got it cheap and I have had fun with the camo.

    Tactical Toolbox

    I have to admit that it felt strange to scuff up that red Snap-On paint. Now the only problem I have is I cant find the toolbox.

    Tactical Toolbox

    Thank you for all the positive feedback! I used 150 grit to scuff the powder coat then wiped everything down with acetone. I used sandable primer where I had bare metal. Then I sprayed away with the Rapco and high temp grill paint. I free handed the pattern and just added paint, no solid...

    Tactical Toolbox

    Thanks. That is a big complement. There is a difference in professional tools. I took time off from working as a paramedic and I worked full time as a custom carpenter. All of my woodworking tools are top end because I could not afford to have them break or fail. When your paycheck depends...

    Tactical Toolbox

    I worked for a garage when I was in high school 20 years ago and I was tempted by the Snap-On dealer many times. If I was a pro I would do it but I am a weekend warrior. I try and pick up Snap-On used from ebay and estate sales.. The Snap-On bottom box looked like it sat on a pallet and was...
