May not be a tool per-say but I did get a new size 80 tank of 75-25 gas for my mig welder, I don't use a lot of gas so I went ahead and bought the tank out right.

I should have done this a long time ago, But the wife was not to happy when she found out what I spent on it.

Not the first time she's not been happy and may not be the last time. But i'am happy so we can live with it.

As long as the bottle is certified ( date stamped on tank is current, not expired), they will increase in value as the price goes up.

Bought a quick change tool post for my lathe.

I got this electric hoist today and suspended it in the garage. $110 for a 440lb lift from Amazon plus $34 for the 5' bar it's hanging from.

I need this as well.

Money well spent Radioguy. You well find whole lot of uses for it that you
haven't even thought of yet.

A hoist is a great back saver. A friend gave me an old 1/2 ton air hoist last year. Had to replace a hose and make a couple gaskets.

Got me a BOSCH Freak a few months back from CPO outlets. Man I love that thing. It's a 1/4" drill driver with a 1/2" impact on it as well.
The one I bought was a left over, as they came out with a new model
that has a few more RPM, and a little bit more torque IIRC. Mine does
150ftlbs. so if people used a torque wrench on your lugs, it'll break most lugs
free, but kids with air tools, working as tire installers.... :bigthink:

New Saw
 

I added a Klutch 5"X4" Metal cutting band saw, saved over $100.00 on it so I just had to jump on it, May not get a lot of use out of it but so far it's working out great.

Now If only I can come up with a hot deal on a mill/drill machine like I want, or maybe a lathe?
Sometimes I miss my old day job.
