Thanks for the suggestions you have provided here.
Chinese locking pliers. Dony your a professional mechanic and will probably using these tools everyday. In about a year why don't you review how well they've held up?
Dude, you got a sick deal. This set is backordered for $349.75 USD on the snap-on site right now.
some times this is a go to tool especially when closeness wont allow a box end or open end and no room for a socket much better than pliers prior to the different sizes that available now us old mechanics cut ours down and made the size we needed nice to see that Irwin makes such a vast assortment
Great review, and nice to have an entire set. I like the individual ones I have and they really are useful. Have a good weekend!
hi donyboy I love your videos they help me with lawn equipment
thanks Beth
If I recall the "USA" ones, pre 2008 when the company was sold and manufacturing moved to overseas, have the rivet or "roll pin" on the lower part of the handle flattened/smooth out where the later ones and current ones that are made in China/Taiwan have the rivet sticking out like the ones you have. Take for what its worth but I have on old pair that I inherited from my dad and sure enough that one rivet is smooth (and does show "Made in USA")
I've probably got around 100 assorted pair around the farm in different tool boxes and work bench drawers. Some I bought new but most came from auctions and flea market's. Many different brand's from the Irwin original to Craftsman to Leverwrench and other makes. Some were good design's and some not so much. I hope yours last the 50 year's some of mine have!
Nice set
Ive had the general type for years, ideal for those broken studs, but the ones that are very pointed look really handy :-D.
The plant in Dewitt, Nebraska closed October 31, 2008, after 70 years in operation. The tools are now made in China.
Thanks for the info. :)
Vise grips too handy. Thanks for the video Don. Ya know what I just realized I need? A set of metric 1/2 inch sockets.
I need to get a set of those vise grip pliers because they do come in handy. I will look to see if the company sell them out of their store first.
those are awsome to work with
Nice set but Irwin stuff seems expensive, well here in the UK at least. I bought a set of grips from Aldi or Lid stores the other month, got a long nose & round pipe pair in there, really pleased with them so far.
I wish Irwin bring them back to DeWitt NE insteed of making in China
would be nice because quality in this set is not like before
Hi you wouldn't happen to have an old bar for a stihl ms 250 would you thanks
hey Don do you still have the 4 cycle trimmer.
Vise Grip pliers are one of the most used tools I have, but only by the brand name, I have tried the cheaper ones and they are pure junk, I went to a swap meet last year and got several different pairs, they were in very good shape and not real expensive.
awsome don great job ... †
What do you use vise grips for?
hey dony i have a weed eater that starts and runs fine but when you go to use it and it get warm n hot and you shut it off it wont restart till it cools down can you tell me what might be wrong please
Another very useful video. Thanks again ! P.S. What ratio ATF/Motor oil do you use as lubricating fluid when rebuilding any component ?
Would love to have this set. No buying Chinese junk though
I have a pair I have owned since early 70's I have beat the living hell out of them and they still work like new.
(Irwin send me a new set like Dony's)
In 2003, the company officially changed its name to Irwin Industrial Tool Company. In 2008, Irwin announced the closing of its DeWitt, Nebraska plant, ending 80 years of American production for Vise-Grips, citing a necessity to move production to China "to keep the Vise-Grip name competitive."
that's too bad,
always its too bad mate , same here too all moved overseas but wow !! that set her would be more than double that in sure . snapon here is a real touch /ripoff good tools yes , but WAY over priced
If you're in the US Amazon has them at a good price.
I love ya dony and your vids are great but I bought that Same set off eBay for $85.25 free ship but mine can in a canvas tote.
I'm in canada
HEllO, Dony, I've just watched one of your vid's on an older Noma, 4 hp engine that has a metal discharge shute, I have a simular machine but it has the plastic shute, can you give me the part number's for the shut and top flap, as all the shop here in New Jersey want a model number to look an thing up, and mine does't show in the books E2450000 NOMA 5/24 but this will only show the plastic, tired of them braking.. Thank you for your help, have a good day..
You can read the Irwin tool company history here - www.irwin.com/about-us/irwin-history. It was around the early 1990s they moved manufacturing to Asia. I have both; older, US made Vice-Grips and some newer ones. The Asia made tools are pretty nice, but I still think the older, US made ones were a bit better.
What the price?
origionally called "Mole Grips" made in UK about 1955 by Moles of Swansea
I have a pair that says mole on it and they are really good condition. I wonder if they are that old.
As far as I know,Moles made them until comparatively recently --maybe 10 years ago/ not sure. I got my first pair around 1957.
Canadian Sales Tax 13%, what a rip!!!! National Health Care ain't free.
hey man love the channel I've got a ms 441 and when I turn it on its side it a noise comes out of the starter once it turns back over it stops any ideas I know your busy .Thanks for sharing your work
$89 on ebay. shipping included.
doubt it would be that cheap in canada which is where he is
They were made in the US until 2008 then the owners Newell Rubbermaid said they had to move production to China. I can a bit of difference between an older pair and the newer ones but not much. I won't by any other than Irwin's original design from Petersen. Any others I have across sold in the US are junk. I even have a pair from Craftsman from back in the 70s or early 80s and I curse the release lever when I get crazy enough to use it. The modern copies you see sold cheap aren't worth the hassle.
I think this is overkill. I have one standard vise grip and one long nose and that's enough for me. I mostly use them to cut fuel when I remove a gas tank that does not have a shutoff or to old down lawn mower safety bars when adjusting carbs.
Yeah the "MADE IN USA" is no longer stamped on the underside of the handle lever. Shame.
Same set is $87 at Walmart
Unfortunately made in China now, but still a good product. I have a few of the Milwaukee Torque Lock pliers, I think they feel more solid. And I like the tightening screw better on the Milwaukee ones because you can stick a screwdriver in and easily turn to tighten while its clamped. With Vice-Grips you either have to unclamp, readjust and then reclamp, or put another vice-grip on it to tighten while clamped which still doesn't give you much force.
The original vise grip made in the U.S. of A are awesome tools the Irwin made in China are very good but don't come close to the one's made in the USA I just can't understand why Irwin went to China to get fucked, when they had it all going good in the USA, I painstakingly collected most of the vise grip tools one by one on the market, and proud to own them! The Chinese cheap copies are a piece of shit (not the Irwin made in China) Sennen Antonio Dourado Wisconsin Milwaukee
13% sales tax?!?!?! THATS TERRIBLE!! I feel for you. Utah has a 12% sales tax. My home state has a sales tax of 6%.
try the netherlands, 21%
Thomas Fooij I'd move out of that country. Lol.
+Love2boat92 in NJ, they tax you for leaving.
Try 23% in Ireland!
xoxo2008oxox How?
I hear on made in USA no more
big surprise, thanks Dems.
Nothing compares Vise Grip even if they are made in China .
13% tax, wow
We are only 4.75% behind. 8.25% in Texas now. But yes, 13%....wow!
It's 25% in Hungary, and look at what we earn with work... That's what i call tax, not 13 or 8.25%.
