You're all over the place with your measurements. The zeroing wasn't off by 2 mm, it was 0.02mm. Then later, when the diameters were off by 0.08mm, you said 8 thousandth's of an inch. It's 8 HUNDREDTH's of a millimetre. C'mon man.
No there's actually more in America. And thank you for watching our video and using our information. We did learn back after we did our video that there's even more bikes because I was going to buy another one of these and it was numbered in the 900s I reached out to my contact at SE bicycles and they still have not gotten back with me I have been waiting and waiting and they still have never gotten back with me and frankly I'm a little pissed because they won't tell me exactly what's going on So to my understanding there are over 1200 of these bikes so 250 In America is incorrect I have not been able to update a video because I have not gotten the actual information as of yet still waiting for SE bicycles to contact me I'm going to have to try to reach out to them again The dropouts are where the wheel connects to the frame that is standard on every bicycle. If you noticed the tires they are the tread pattern The vans shoes bottom tread underneath the shoes is the same tread as the tires and the grips... 250 was a fair deal The bike is beat up pretty badly It's a shame that the guy did that to that bike. And missing all the parts he probably sold them off because they're hard items to find and someone will pay a pretty penny for them That's just my speculation... I also could be wrong the guy could be completely negligent and lost the parts why and how I don't know but someone it would buy a bike like that and spend as much as it costs new and then lose parts like that I just would find that very odd that it wouldn't be taken care of with the cost of what it's worth I can safely say that owning one. You can see it in our videos BMXMayers
Yes, when I was picking up the bike, he told me by the way I was a teenager. Lol, he looked to be around 15 or so. That's probably why some of the psrts were lost
@@mlacher100 Wonder where a boy that young come up with the money to buy something that expensive... Just find it odd that someone would not take care of such a beautiful bike that costs so much when they bought it new.
I'm not sure if i made the right decision i order 3/8 and 1/2 drive wright impact sockets and 1/4 drive proto sockets, i got the 3/8 wright sets and both had 2 defects, i got one of the proto 1/4 sets and all of them are perfect quality I'm still waiting for the other sets to show up but I'm starting to think i should have gone proto everything
Im not real sure. Everything I got from proto has been great, and the warranty of the wrench takes a bit if they are out of stock. I made a video of that process as well
Tengo el tercer modelo de Craftsman, el selector es de plástico de igual forma el botón para sacar el dado, me hubiera gustado que fueran de metal, sabes si venden repuestos de metal? Muchas gracias por el video.
I've been wanting one of these but I've been worried about the double paws. I know their staggered to get the 120 count and was always afraid first time I clean the ratchet I would knock it out of alignment (both paws falling into the same position). Is there some design mechanism which prevents the paws from landing on the same tooth or do you just need to be extremely precise when reassembling?
They were 20" wheels. Im not sure if you can run a bigger wheel on it, and it doesn't rub. I've never really tried doing that on a bike before? That could be an interesting idea for a video.
@@mlacher100 Yes, thanks; we're okay. God is good. I didn't even lose power although so many did. Most of the storm damage experienced around us on the Atlantic side is from tornados which all missed me and everyone I know, my Christian family. You can see lots of videos of the tornado damage on RU-vid searching for Vero Beach and/or Indian River County storm damage. It is massive!
Interesting info, thanks. That little piece of plastic has tiny little tabs that's hard to capture in a video, and can really going flying if you're not careful. I have the quick release version of this (BP-1338QR) which was actually cheaper ($25) than the non-QR version when I got it. I've been using superlube oil (51004) and haven't had any problems, but am guessing you were referring to using the superlube grease which is too thick or sticky.
Yes, it is I realized I only turned in 1/4 the way around what would of put it at 44 tooth close to the 43 tooth that they have listed on the web sight. I will have to add that correction in the notes section. Thank you
I don't like to criticize anyone who makes videos to try and help others, so I appreciate you trying to help, but I would like to bring up a point that you may not have considered. You never break a tap, in the real world, by hitting it with a hammer to break it off. The tap will break because it "binds up", and you keep trying to turn it, and when it snaps, it is really "seized" in the hole. If you just run a tap down and then artificially break it off with a hammer, as I think you said you did, the tap will not be hard to remove, because it isn't "seized". Anyway, thanks for the video, and I hope I understood you correctly, that you did indeed just artificially break the tap off???
I did, and it was aluminum. The video is for demonstration purposes only. Unfortunately, my work does not allow me to video on the job. If I did stanless, is usually what they break off in, and you can use a chisel to get it started moving our to break the tap to pull it out in pieces. Thank you for the view and for sharing a comment.
It was just for demonstration purposes only. If you have seen any of my videos, there are many different options for extractors! Thanks for the view and comment!
@@mlacher100 i probably have half the options. :) i like having plan b thru h because you never know what youre going to run into with angry looking fasteners.
I wonder if there's a company that sales a compatible kit with 90t that would fit this ratchet and make it it's as good as a gearwrench or Carlyle ratchet 🤔
Im not really sure. The ratchet has the same design as an HF ratchet, so you will have to find something close to what would also have to fit in an HF ratcher. Thank you for the view!
Do you really need 1/4 magnetic impacts? Usually chrome can rip the fastener heads off with not much effort so can't see a need for 1/4 impacts. If I need an impact, it's 3/8 or 1/2 inch. I do like magnetic sockets and drivers, but it's not usually a big deal either. I still gave you a thumbs up as this was a great review for those that want something like this especially for $30.
Good morning Brother. Looks like my earlier comment dropped. I thanked you for an interesting post. I thought those must be spring loaded the moment I saw them. Thanks and God bless.
Thanks for this review Brother. When this post started I wondered if there was a spring in there. I like the look of these. Thanks again and God bless.
Hi mate am England and on amazon now we can get tekton and craftsman v series am in need of a 3/8 flex head and i really dont know witch i should get your opinion will be appreciated
Interesting? What one is it? The picture to the left is the corded model that is 18gauge, the picture to the right is the model in the video and the thumbnail description is the same model of the video. I used a generic pic off the internet. Nice job picking up on the cord.
How does it ride? Im a new father and I want to get back into bmx so the price range looks good but don’t wanna spend 200 if It’s not worth it thanks for the video!
Considering I was not even going to make a video of it, I decided last min to make the video. You can always go watch another video if it's too long for you. I try to be through and explain everything.
@@mlacher100 100% Agree - 80s-2000ish Craftsman stuff is taking off right now to another level. Scrolling through ebay sold status on hand tools category for Craftsman is eye opening. Maybe it is the Lego looking part # they have 🤣
Thanks Brother, held my attention. You are very industrious! Most of the rest of the country would have thrown it out and bought another one without even trying to make a repair. God bless you and thanks for your prayers, my family and I suffereed no harm from the effects of the hurricaine. So many others are suffering.
I actually save a few things I wish I would have made videos for. One was a rice cooker that stopped. The internal fuse blew on that one. Another was a carpet cleaner that stopped working it ended up being the motor bearing seized up with rust, I ended up getting a used one off eBay and soldered it all up. I fixed many video game consoles from bad internal fuses to bad capacitors in them. Also, I did some Led screen up grades to old handle video screens. Lots of other stuff. I'm glad you are ok. l, I've been keeping you in prayer all day. Prayers for those effected, its really a horrible thing to have happened.
Yeah I'm thinking it was the Chinese one that had that sandpaper like feel that was a couple years ago Ace Hardware and I don't remember the country of origin I just know it wasn't USA you done a very good comparison I think the tolerance might have been a little better on the USA despite the fact that it has wear and tear I'm assuming if the USA wrench was new it might have won that but to find a New Old Stock Craftsman wrench would be like pulling teeth maybe not so much if you go to eBay route the most Craftsman tools you find I've been used quite a bit thanks for sharing my friend I was looking forward to this comparison
Awsome Don, thank you for sharing the information with you no doubt there are definitely some quality issues with some of the things coming from China. I cant tell you how many things I have sent back on amazon, after receiving to find the quality was not as described.
I'm overseas (Europe) and the Indian made one looks good (for what it is) however, I'd take the American forged one any day of the week. We Europeans are all about quality and tradition, which means tools must be made in country of origin, we will (largely) ignore tools that are not made that way. Added. Exception to that rule are cordless tools (we have few domestically made options, basically only German made) out of necessity. @OP Appreciate you sharing this.
If it ain't made in USA from the Sear era, it's not a real Craftsman tool. It's just an offshore pretender with a USA marketing name to prey on the nostalgic guys.
