Prazi USA PR9000 Putty Chaser Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was excited when I saw this product advertised, and I was equally horrified the first time I used it. I have very old glazing and this product simply would not work. I managed to destroy the first window I tried it on and that was it. There is really no way to effectively practice using this thing, so good luck for you first-timers. I returned mine.

Allied 66525 Ratcheting Screwdriver Set with Window Storage Case, 61-Piece Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've had no problems at all with this set. I've used it numerous times since I received it last month, and I couldn't be happier. What's great about it is the pivoting shank (neck?) on the thing that allows you to get into places other screwdrivers can't. I've used pivoting screwdrivers before, but this one actually locks in at a 45-degree angle, and won't slip in high torque situations the way others will. I've used this on my cars where I can attach the sockets to it and turn nuts in places my regular ratchet can't reach.
I've seriously reefed on this thing with as much force as I could muster (I'm not a small guy) when tightening the valve adjustment nut for the number three cylinder on my 1967 VW Van (which I love) and the thing held up under my best effort. I'm not saying it's unbreakable, because nothing is. I'm sure I could stick this thing in my vise put all my weight on sideways and it would break, but why would I do that. I paid for this thing! I found the bits and sockets to be pretty good. Sure they'll wear out a little faster than a professional quality socket set, and if you're a pro mechanic who goes at it 8 hours a day 5 days a week you probably won't even be looking at this set. I use it for a couple hours every weekend on my old air-cooled car collection (these VWs need a lot of attention, but they're worth it)and it's held up just fine under my abuse. This quickly went from being an impulse buy addition to my already extensive toolset, to being the most regularly used tool in the box. Unlike my other ratchet sets, this one has a case with a labeled spot for every bit and socket, so they don't all end up floating around my toolbox. Dig it!

Trim Carpentry Techniques: Installing Doors, Windows, Base and Crown Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I am currently in the middle of a massive remodeling project in my house. I bought this book to learn some simple techniques for installing the molding that was so easy to rip out, but is a pain to put back in. I read the book from cover to cover and I found that the book lacked on illustrations/pictures. Most of the explanations are only given in paragraph form, and was hard to follow for me. This is the only do it yourself book that I regret buying from Amazon!
