6600lb Air Jack Deal

Looks handy to quickly raise a corner to get a jack stand under. I just ordered one.

Wow, I just jumped on this too. I had one of these suitcases when I was building houses. I walked around to the back of a house for about 10 minutes, when I came back to the front someone had loaded all the tools in the suitcase and walked off. It was $500 then, and now at HD. $139.00. This is a great set for skoolie builders.

Both of your links go to the pneumatic jack.

You think that thing will lift the corner of your bus? I'm skeptical of manufacturer claims and I know my bus is gonna be 20k+ pounds total.

Which on average would be 5k per corner. Do I think a 6600lb lift will lift 5K. ya I do.

Here's the link to the tools:

When living in Hawai'i, I saw plenty of crappy cheap generators. Entire neighborhoods, bigger than some cities, have no wired power or piped water. People need gennies. After seeing what I saw, I'd spend the $$$ on a nice quiet reliable Honda.

Who would leave $500 worth of tools laying around in plain view, unguarded?

God probably wouldn't mind if you redeemed his 'gift' for something you would actually use.

They have a Honda EB10000 (400lb $5k plus genny) on there for $146 shipped...

...Yes I took that gamble. So excited to see how this goes.

Here’s to PayPal’s money back guarantee!

man, if I didn't hate generators, I'd take one too!


Or are they knock-offs? Let us know if you get a warranty card with a serial number that Honda verifies. And good luck to you generator lovin' folks! Just don't park near me.

Starting to make me worry. The Honda EB10000 lists for $5700, how could they possibly sell it for less than $150 with free shipping? The pics are Honda factory pics. I guess we'll just have to wait and see. As mentioned, Paypal payment leaves me with no real worries. I searched for reviews. seems they've been around for 3 years, no negative reviews, but also no positive.

retail markup really, actually, is insanely high compared to the cost of manufacture in third-world countries when you incorporate exchange rates.

I was digging the robot snow plow machine for $99. I'm in Florida so I wouldn't use it for plowing snow, but for $100 I can put a seat on it and make it go faster.

Yay for Paypal. I'm not worried about my money being taken. But I will be surprised if anything shows up on my door step.

By $.20 a tool. You can't compare prices when one kit is 15 tools and the other 19.

Huge drill index. chain saw, and router are well worth the extra money. Recently bought a 10" Makita2 20V chainsaw and have been wearing it out cutting firewood.
Your kit comes with one battery, mine has 4. Have you priced Makita batteries lately? So actually the bigger kit is way cheaper.
