Got some of the honey-dos taken care of and had time to cruise the local pawn shops last weekend. The old boy east of town took all his old wrenches etc to a local auciton house down the street and they had a big auction in Mid December. I chose to work instead of go, but most of what he had was not worth bidding on. The two chain store pawn shops have both thinned out their tool sections, but poking through their sockets and wrenches, I was able to come up with a few goodies. They had two Plomb 9/32" items behind the glass for 30% off their combined $9 retail and and a "no name" 9/32" flex over that their bar code label covered up "Armstrong", so I got all three for like $9. VG condition too. In the bone pile, I found a Challenger 3/8" ratchet for like .50, and eventually the guy just made a package deal. I grabbed a 30% off IR 1/2 impact gun that was labeled $20 and the total bill was around $35. the IR wouldn't even remove a lug nut, so I took it back and went up the road to their competitor(yes, I did get a 7 day warranty on it) and found an 800ft. lb MAC impact wrench for $120 and decided to buy it and it really does the job and is under 90 decibels. GJ folks said this MAC is made in China, but is really a re-badged Air Cat, which apparently is highly regarded.
