I did not find any other area to post this but here. I have two sets of 10" Lippert brake shoes with springs for manual adjusting brakes only. There are free to a good home except postage. They were purchased from Lippert by mistake a couple of years ago. New in the original packaging. Steve

100% agree on Fluke, that was always my top choice for professional use. When I got dropped off by helicopter at solar mountaintop repeater sites for a few days my tools and instruments got hard use and had to work all the time. But for occasional casual home use? I’ve found the Chinese stuff does the job at a fraction of the cost.
Everyone has different opinions on things like tools, get what your comfortable with and budget allows. |

We got one of those from HF, and it was non-functional. Took it back, and had to pay a $6 "re-stocking fee". Was kind of irritated at that, so when I got the replacement out to my truck after, and found the replacement had the exact same problem (or at least the exact same symptoms), I took it back in. They at least took the 2nd one back without charging me a re-stock fee. So in the end, that $20 thermometer cost me $6 plus two trips to HF. Since we live outside of town, each one of those trips were ~~ 3 hours each. So the crappy $20 thermometer not only cost me $6, but also took 6 hours from my life. and I still didn't have a thermometer. After leaving HF, I went to HD, and got a nice Klein Tools IR thermometer, which works very well.

Ha ha. No lack of knowledge, just lack of coordination. When I’m stuck using my phone it’s really a PITA ‘cause of my big fat fingers. Things like editing text strings are particularly error prone. So I tend to avoid them.
