The Milwaukee Mechanics Tool Set I’d Build From Scratch

The Milwaukee Mechanics Tool Set I’d Build From Scratch

Milwaukee sells a 366-piece master mechanics set, and it’s a monster. If I were opening a full-time shop, I’d gladly take one.But if I were building a simpler Milwaukee mechanics tool set for my garage, I wouldn’t start by buying everything Milwaukee has ever painted red. I’d focus on the tools I would actually reach for during brake jobs, tire rotations, oil changes and weekend repairs.No filler. No mystery tools that sit untouched for eight years. Here’s my setup. ... Read More

Trade of the Month: Mechanics

Trade of the Month: Mechanics

Most people do not think about their mechanic when the car starts every morning.

Mechanics are the people expected to find the issue, explain it clearly and get everything moving again, often while working around rust, tight spaces and parts that refuse to cooperate.For August’s Trade of the Month, Acme Tools is recognizing automotive mechanics, diesel technicians, fleet mechanics and the dedicated ...

The Undisputed Champion of the Jobsite: The Milwaukee M18 Folding Flood Light

We have all been there before. You are stuffed into a dark, cramped crawlspace, or trying to rough in a room long after the sun dips, and your massive, ancient work light is casting more shadows than it provides actual visibility.

Revisit: Why This Klein Tools Video Is Still The Standard For Sparkies

Five months might as well be a lifetime in the content game, but real quality has a shelf life that lasts forever. We dropped this video back in September 2025, and looking back at the footage, the message is arguably more relevant now than it was then. If you are an electrician, a general contractor, or a homeowner who takes pride in their work, you know Klein Tools isn't just a logo on a handle. It is the baseline for professional work in America.We originally highlighted this lineup during our Trade of the Month feature, but this gear doesn't care ... Read More
