thisismatt Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 All I can say is I bought them on clearance. Screw Irwin. Screw them and their offshore crap. Screw them for moving quality tool manufacturing to China from not only the US, but from Europe as well. Eff them right in the crap hole. Screw Jorgensen too, for doing the same. Bought 24 of their made in USA clamps this last year so I could at least get some decent ones before they were all gone. Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Jorgensen is Chinese now? Fuck Quote Link to comment
thisismatt Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Jorgensen is Chinese now? Fuck Yes, although I will say the few chinese versions I've used have been fine, unlike this slipping POS Irwin. Besides, Jorgensen cheaped out their clamps even before sending the manufacturing to China... Quote Link to comment

I hate to say this as some may find it a bit morbid but, I've found some of my best tools at estate sales of woodworkers, mechanics, welders, or home hobbyists that were born well before tools went to crap. The morbid part is that I've been known to read the obits on occasion looking for men that fit one of the above profiles and search their names looking for possible estate sales. I'm creepy like that but I figure dude would rather have his tools go to someone that appreciates them than god forbid end up as scrap metal used to make more cheap Chinese shit. 6 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Jeesus Pizza pizza,,, isn't it uncomfortable wearing your swim fins everywhere you go?? Funny you say that...by the time Cesar arrived I had the shakes going from being hungry, ordered a couple pizzas and asked Cesar if he could pick them up just 5 blocks away, when he returned Mike said, "look at that...Cesar with little Caesar's pizza" we all laughed :thumbup: it was a good day! Today Mike came back to replace one of his door hinge bushings....man that was a bitch to break loose, we had to go to Mike's shop to pick up a torch and came back to the house, we got her but man that was a bitch, he had a spare hinge for the top side since nobody had bushings in stock today.....now his door closes real smooth :) 2 Quote Link to comment

KoHeartsGPA Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I guess next up is dropping my front end 2 inches, as it sits now it looks lower in the back...gonna lower the perch on each side and use clamps, I already have the shorty 280zx tokiko inserts, in theory it shouldn't affect my ride smoothness since I'm not going to cut any more coils :thumbup: 1 Quote Link to comment
flatcat19 Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 Yeah, it means cat, little cat, kitty cat in Spanish! No. I'm pretty big. I mean like fat. The only kitties I know anything aboot is ur mom's. 1 Quote Link to comment
