Don’t adjust your TV screens, Harbor Freight really is selling a 24K gold-plated version of its ICON 3/8" ratchet.
Does this fancy ratchet perform as well as it looks? We test it to find out. Presented by CRC Industries.

No testing to see if the gold plating will stand up to CRC BrakeKleen?
Also something about this video made me thing about the need to 3D print some toolbox organizers.

Never understood why Snap-On and others make "special edition" tools. They're tools, not jewelry.

I did some pliers holders ( to have them stand vertical and at an angle ) for more space - LOVE them!
Go print!

I'm already OCD as it is with cleaning my tools...I can't imagine having to break out the Never Dull to polish them up.
True GRM story.
Two minutes before the cameras rolled.
Me: So, do we have a script here?

I believe it's called ... profit.
So this ratchet has been sitting on my bench for a week now... but I can't bring myself to use it. What's wrong with me? Do I need to smash it on the ground a few times to break it in?
I have one icon ratchet and I hate it! Gimme the $120 Snap-on/Matco/Mac/Cornwell version everyday.
