    tractor Lighting

    I've got a Ford Jubilee tractor, the successor to the 8N. It has a negative ground 6 volt electrical system. I wonder if anyone would make good lights to replace the headlight bulbs.

    Replacing EDC Wave

    For ten years I've EDCed a Leatherman Wave. I lost it recently and can't decide what it's replacement will be. My wave was the original one, I think I like the newer one a little better. I want a tool with a decent knife, that can be opened with one hand. Any suggestions of tools I should...

    Fully Evolved

    Duluth Trading Company has a bag they call the "Fully Evolved Briefcase" I'm looking for a good case to take my computer some books and all the junk I like to carry around with me. Has anybody used this one?

    Ripoffs Holsters and Pouches are no more!

    I do care about the quality of the things I buy. I like to buy USA. I've been looking for some good holsters and belt pouches for a while, I don't see the quality marketed. I care where it's made, but more than anything else I care if it is a quality item that will last. I think the things...

    Knife/Multi-tool for survival?

    I've carried a Leatherman of some description for about 15 years now. For about five years I've carried a Wave. If I can't carry it on a belt sheath (I use the leather one that came with it) then I carry it in my pocket. It is my EDC knife. I'm a minister, and I work as an aide in a special...

    Which Multi-Tools do you prefer

    I really like the original Leatherman Wave, I've been carrying one for several years. I've always carried it on my belt. Working in a school for the past year I carry it in my pocket. I work in a special ed class and my kids would be too interested in it if they saw it all the time.

    What's your favorite cordless drill?

    In DeWalt you will find two qualities. A DeWalt drill that has a completely yellow body is a piece of junk. A DeWalt Drill that has the black insets in the hand grip is hard to beat.

    Advice sought on first modified light

    I'm absolutely new to this. Is there a web-site that will show the options, parts, part prices, and hopefully how to do it? Can you replace a switch? I don't want to give up on the first flashlight my wife bought me, it has to be a true mile-stone in our marriage.

    Advice sought on first modified light

    I'm new here, this is just my second post. But I think I've found my people. I've always loved flashlights, now I find that you can modify them. I may be in trouble. I have an old mag light (about 23 years old) that my wife bought me our second Christmas together. It's a 4 "D" cell light...

    First post for collector

    This is my first post on this site. I just learned about this place today. I see that I'm way outclassed as a collector here. I've just got a couple of dozen lights, most of which are Wal-Mart specials. But I'm in the habit of picking ups different types and styles of lights every time I think...
