Great episode. Glad you picked up that chair and lugged it home - quite a find. A few years ago either the New York Times or the Wall Street Journal had a great article on the inventor who invented and initially marketed the portable work bench you mentioned. The marketing was the hardest part for the inventor, until he was finally able to sell the invention to a large manufacturer. This occurred after it became very clear that a lucrative market existed for such a device among DIYers in Great Britain, where he lived and worked. He retired to one of the Channel Islands, where I believe he died about ten or more years ago. The article I saw may have been an extended obituary for this mechanical genius who invented this portable work bench, which was designed so that it could be folded up and stored in a relatively small closet until needed.

The Workmates are a great addition to any shop. Dad gave me one with the aluminum frame many years ago. I put a new top on it and have used it for all kinds of jobs away from the shop. I put it in the truck and took it everywhere. I have at least one in every workspace now. I gave one to Ryan too. That way I don't have to load one up if I'm going there to help on a project. Good tips on the paint. I will have to try warming the paint and parts. When I was painting motorcycles I would pull the nozzle and drop it in a jar of laquer thinner after painting. The next time I painted I would put the nozzle back in. That had another advantage some cans had different shaped spray patterns and I could swap nozzles. Fan spray for larger area and spot for frames and narrow sections. I have a knock off Klenk screwdriver. The flip joint is broken, but it still is a great design. It will be a challenge to try and make a new flip joint section. Another great mosh. Thanks John. 😎😎

The snap on pliers look as if they were made somewhere way way east of Kenosha and laser etched poorly. German tools are hard to fault, except for the premium price of most of them the one’s I use from Knipex, NWS, and Gedore are perfect. Maybe not to the finish on vintage USA brands but very hard to beat, especially in a market flooded with junk. Klenk makes superior aviation snips and though I don’t use my pairs as much as I used to, if anyone asks to borrow them I hand them some Wiss, which are nothing like they were. As usual, great info!

As of late I have purchased a few tools from Harbor freight and have been, for the most part, pleasantly surprised by durability and finish of the tools.

Couldn't agree more on the pliers. Japanese & German are nearly always significantly better. With Amazon and other online retailers they're often at or below comparable domestic brands. I recently bought a pair of Channellock dikes & needlenose locally & they're both just bad. I can't get the dikes to loosen up, I thoroughly washed/oiled them with a few different products, while working the action hard... & they're still very stiff. The Needlenose hatching/knurling has worn smooth very quickly as well as the cutters showing really significant wear. I've used them a fair bit, but only home use tinkering & no abuse. I really want to buy U.S. made, and I've always considered Channellock to be about the minimum quality plier I want to buy, but very acceptable given their price point. I still really like their XL & XXL Tongue & Grooves but I don't think I'd buy any of their other products. I've always had very good experiences with Klein but I've heard guys complaining of very stiff actions too. Ah well.

Unfortunately Snap-On has out sourced a majority of its tool manufacturing. I retired in 1996 my last purchases from Snap-On where still made in USA. Though they are true to their lifetime guarantee.

Their Industrial finish was black and light casting surface still nice to hold in your hands. Those pliers I would have refused to purchase from the dealer.

Love that NY “Haa” at 14:03 Scout😂. I’m curious to know where your friend bought his Snap-on pliers because I really can’t see Snap-on letting something that poorly made past QC. If purchased on line is it possible they’re a fake or knock off? If someone was going to have their tools copied then S-O would have to be a prime candidate. I buy Knippex tools new when I can afford them and to me they’re worth the money but I also get them used and it’s rare to find them damaged or unrepairable. They usually just need a good clean. As my friend Scout Crafter says “ buy once, cry once”. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

The funny thing is the handles seem very cheesy along with the fiber board top. Now they are using a bamboo top that seems better but those handles just feel like junk. If that workmate had a nice top and cool handles it would totally be awesome!! =D

Just received a SnapOn ratchet and it is perfect.

There is no doubt that Snap-On is one of the best tool companies around but sometimes things get by quality control...

Thanks for your diplomatic comment about Snap on pliers. This is the kind of attention getting commentary they need to make improvements. It's sad that a top quality UStool should be this way.ive noticed that even used Snap on tools are expensive. Your paint tips are useful. I've wondered about Duplicolor paint use besides their automotive uses. Thanks for saving the nice chair. I know one guy can only so much to save valuable stuff at the poor man's flea market, and appreciate what you do. Good idea to use it upstate. A 425 workmates would really be helpful in my shop. Keeping my eyes open for one.

The Klenk is Cool, I particularly like the Locking and not just some Spring Detent that doesn't hold its position........Warming the paint & part will change one's life forever (or at least make for a better paint job).

I'm surprised they don't add that to the label of the paint! =D

The other top quality pliers to check out if you don't already have any are from Sweden - Lindstrom - they only make small pliers as far as I know, for electronics and that kind of thing.
