Stanley MR77C

Just got this Stanley MR77C Swivel Head Riveter Stanley MR77C. Having used Stanley tools my whole life and have always been pleased. The last Stanley riveter I had was nothing but a piece of ever lasting junk.However after finding this swivel head unit on Amazon I again trusted Stanley for a quality tool and so far not disappointed.The last one had a constant jamming problem with the rivet nail becoming stuck in the jaws that pull the nail to pop the rivet.I tried the most difficult rivets I have, stainless and hard to pop. Popped ten and no problems at all with this latest riveter.I would highly recommend this tool especially due to the swivel head for access to hard spots to rivet.I would give it a five star rating ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley MR77C Swivel Head Riveter.

Stanley 84-113

Where can I find Stanley 84-113 8-Inch Linesman Plier Stanley 84-113. I bought one pair of the linemans pliers and thought they were so good and such a great price I picked up another pair. They seem high quality afterall they do carry the Stanley name on them. I had looked around at various stores and most wanted double the price I paid here. I hadn't had linemans pliers until recently and I am not sure why I hadn't bought them before they are really handy to have around! 1 ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 84-113 8-Inch Linesman Plier.

Stanley PHT150C

Wow Stanley Tools PHT150C SharpShooter Heavy Duty Hammer Tacker Stanley PHT150C. Mine works with the 1/4 staples great. I tried the 3/8 T50 and they jammed in the feeder (and a bit of a pain to remove). We've gone through almost 1,000 of the 1/4 inch without a jam or a problem. Our original purchase didn't have the instructions attached so we also purchased Stanley 1/2 staples that according to the box would work in this model. They don't, too long. It seems that if you stick to the Stanley brand staples and keep it under 3/8" it will work great.0 of 1 . . »»» Learn More about Stanley Tools PHT150C SharpShooter Heavy Duty Hammer Tacker.

Stanley 059000R

Where to buy cheap Stanley 059000R FatMax Lock and Stock Organizer Stanley 059000R. It's true that the packaging for this item is minimal. Mine arrived fine. I believe it is actually made by a company in Israel that was called ZAG, and had made good quality items in the past. My only beef would be the price difference, I found mine at Walmart online for 98.00 and free shipping to my closest store, it's the exact same item. I do residential remodeling and I believe this will be a specialty tool box for either electrical or drilling items once I get it outfitted. A few days later it arrived at the store, I received email from them to pick it up, did so and upon getting home, looked at the website again, price ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 059000R FatMax Lock and Stock Organizer.

Stanley 33-692

Where do I buy Stanley 33-692 Max 16-Foot Tape Measure with AirLock Stanley 33-692. Since I first bought this series of tapes I have been nothing but satisfied. When most tapes get wet ant get dirty they start to stick and not recoil, but these tapes don't have any trouble. They also go out further than most other tapes which greatly helps when you're trying take measurements up in the air.8 of 8 . . »»» Learn More about Stanley 33-692 Max 16-Foot Tape Measure with AirLock.

Stanley 33-516

Buy Stanley 33-516 16 x 1-Inch Powerlock Tape Rule Reinforced with Blade Armor Coating Stanley 33-516. I have used this tape 5 days a week for almost 4 years, and it is still going. I own a cabinet shop and work with this tape just about every day I'm in the shop. I didn't like the narrower 3/4" wide tape because it felt too flimsy, and if someone is using a 25' tape to build cabinets, they have not been doing it long. Nothing aginst framers, but a 25' tape is just too big and bulky.I also had such a hard time finding this tape (it's 1" wide and hase the "blade armor") I ordered 4 of them, so I don't think I will need to worry about getting a new one for about 15 ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 33-516 16 x 1-Inch Powerlock Tape Rule Reinforced with Blade Armor Coating.

Stanley 60-010

Top Guide Stanley 60-010 T10 Standard Torx Screwdriver Stanley 60-010. I've had one of these in my garage for years.I just wanted to review to note it is the perfect size for removing the cover from a Playstation 3. At least the older 'fat' model (mine was a 60gb with B/C).Most torx bits fit onto screwdrivers that are far too wide at the end, making the torx aspect too short to reach the recessed's Torx screw.This one is thin and long and works perfectly.For a few complex pieces of equipment, they use recessed torx screws because you can't remove them without the right tool, and that means you either did research or you're the company's technician.Once this single screw is off the PS3, it's really easy to open up ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 60-010 T10 Standard Torx Screwdriver.

Stanley 30-455

How to get cheap Stanley 30-455 25-by-1-Inch Tape Rule Stanley 30-455. I have owned many tape measures over the years and they all have good and bad points. This tape has several of the good points and it was inexpensive - at least it was where I got it!I found this exact tape on sale at a local hardware store for $2.99. For that price, buying this tape was a no brainer. The plastic case is tough and fairly slip resistant, the blade lock works well, the blade is easy to read, and though it lists a "standout measurement" of seven feet, I have had mine out to eight feet many times. All in all, its a good tape measure that is a much better deal if ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 30-455 25-by-1-Inch Tape Rule.

Stanley 16-299

Just got Stanley 16-299 12 Piece Punch & Chisel Kit Stanley 16-299. Work on stuff long enough and you'll soon find you need many of these punch and chisel tools. Removing pins, a center punch, and of course the good 'ol chisel. Old school basic tools but these are made from good steel and well marked. The price is also attractive, cheaper sets will no doubt be junk as I've bought my share of the junk tools to know to avoid them in the future. Get something quality and you won't regret it and have to buy a better replacement (adding to the total expenditure) later on. The case is good for selling it, not the greatest for storing them, but it does the job if you ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley 16-299 12 Piece Punch & Chisel Kit.

I bought this set because I actually broke a couple of my standard Craftsmans. I used the 3/4 to loosen the same nut the Craftsman broke on. Seem heavy, they're hardened, and have taken my abuse.

Stanley PPRH5

Where can I get this Stanley PPRH5 450 Amp Professional Power Station with Built-In 500 Watts Power Inverter and 120 PSI Air Compressor Stanley PPRH5. This item appears to be fairly well-made. It has a rather large footprint and weighs ~15 lbs. I like the layout of the controls and lighted psi gauge. The battery charge indicator has three LED's, so it's hard to gauge exactly how much charge is left. When I received this item, the plastic valve on the end of the air hose was broken off. Rather than send it back, I decided to fix it myself for two reasons. 1 - The plastic valve will eventually break off again (very cheap component). 2 - The 1/4" rubber air hose is VERY short (less than 18"), which will make the compressor more difficult to position and use. ... . »»» Learn More about Stanley PPRH5 450 Amp Professional Power Station with Built-In 500 Watts Power Inverter and 120 PSI Air Compressor.

Stanley 33-425

Where to buy cheap Stanley 33-425 Powerlock 25-Foot by 1-Inch Measuring Tape Stanley 33-425. You have to have a tape measure for do-it-yourself projects. I have three tape measures myself, including a Stanley. The belt clip is very handy, particularly when you are carrying lumber or are going up or down a ladder. The mylar coated blade helps keep the tape from rusting. A heat treated spring is a must for long life of any tape measure. I like the tape lock on this tape measure too. A tape measure I have from another company tends to allow the tape to move.Stanley has become a well-known brand with quality products. I own several Stanley tools, including this tape measure.

Stanley 84-102

Where can I find Stanley 84-102 8-Inch Long Nose Plier Stanley 84-102. I use these for cutting silk flowers. The handle is comfortable, does not slip and cause burns as I have found to be a problem with many of the brands I've tried under $25 a pair. I can cut from the thinnest to the thickest of wired flowers with reasonable effort. I have purchased and gone through many different brands of these cutter/pliers and have found this to be the best value for what I use them for. I purchased two pair of these last year and used them to cut approximately 7000 wired flowers. The cutting surface is showing some wear but still cuts through the wires.

Shop online Stanley 16-334 2-3/4-Inch X 8-1/2-Inch FatMax Masons Chisel with Bi-Material Hand Guard Stanley 16-334. This chisel is very well designed and forged. Heavy, solid feel and molded to fit your hands [even when wearing gloves]. The hand guard has saved me from several potentially excruciating moments, as impact smudges on the rubber guard will attest to. I've used it to split bricks and flagstone and it works very well. The wide edge makes chiseling jobs quicker by giving you extra length to your cutting edge. It comes with a nice cover for the chisel edge to keep this from colliding with other tools in your toolbox.

Stanley 68-010

Excellent Stanley 68-010 10-Inch Multi-bit Screwdriver Stanley 68-010. Stanley Tools labels this Contractor Grade, and it certainly is quite hefty in weight and feels heavy duty. But I found this to be an unpleasant tool to use. This is due to its long length and the large unbalanced, bulky handle, which is covered with a rough feeling rubber. Holding this tool is awkward and using it uncomfortable. The tool comes with 10 screwdriver bits, six of which are in the handle. Turning the driver knob to access the bits requires some effort. Also, the bits do not easily pop out. I had to use a pair of needlepoint pliers to pull out the bits. The driver is made in Taiwan.7 of 8 . . »»» Learn More about Stanley 68-010 10-Inch Multi-bit Screwdriver.
