Brass hot-melt / heat-set insert nut kit, 1450 pieces, sizes M2, M2.5, M3, and M4 in multiple lengths. Includes a 60W ESD-safe temperature-controlled soldering iron (110V–240V) with stand for installing the inserts into 3D prints or plastic. Made in China. Iron gets very hot — use with care.
Chrome-moly impact-rated step-down adapter: 3/4 inch female to 1/2 inch male, with detent ball and pin hole. Lets you run 1/2 inch drive sockets off a 3/4 inch gun or breaker bar. Easy to overpower 1/2 inch sockets this way, so go gently on the trigger.
Chrome-moly impact-rated step-up adapter: 1/2 inch female to 3/4 inch male, with detent ball and pin hole. Lets you run 3/4 inch drive sockets off a 1/2 inch gun or ratchet. Mind the torque — stepping up doesn't give the smaller drive more muscle.
Black-oxide impact-rated socket, 1-1/2 inch, standard depth, with a retaining-pin hole. The kind of size you need for big suspension, trailer axle, or heavy equipment fasteners. Drive size isn't confirmed from the photo — ask before you make the trip if it matters.
Compact pull-through sharpener with a molded pistol-style handle. Carbide/ceramic slots for knives plus a dedicated slot for left-handed scissors. Quick and cheap way to bring back a dull working edge — not a precision tool, but handy for shop knives, garden shears and scissors.
Combination waterstone: #1000 side (blue) for setting and sharpening an edge, #6000 side (white) for finishing and polishing. Comes with a bamboo holder and non-slip rubber base. Soak in water before use. Good general-purpose stone for kitchen knives, chisels and plane irons.
Classic grooved steel honing rod with a black plastic handle and a hanging ring on the butt. For realigning a rolled edge on softer Western kitchen knives between real sharpenings — it straightens the edge rather than removing much metal.
Round ceramic honing rod with a black hex handle (the hex flat keeps it from rolling on the counter). Realigns and lightly refines an edge between sharpenings; gentler and finer than a grooved steel, so it works well on harder kitchen knives. Ceramic — will chip if dropped on a hard floor.
