There is one on 161. I've been there, but can't be any more specific. Sorry.

A new one just opened last week over on West Broad if that's closer to you.

161 and Cleveland Ave, right next to the Kroger Catering place, same shopping center as Stereo Limited.

It's located on the southwest corner of 161 & Cleveland Avenue.

If you go there, whatever you do, DO NOT ask a technical question about tools to anyone who works there. They are a bunch of dumbasses.

Yeah I have been to the ones in Houston a million times but not the ones here. That place rules for good deals though. They should sponsor my car since it was built with all there crap. :D

I hope you people know that buying crap from them helps support the trade imbalance with China. Most of the stuff Harbor Freight sells comes from China.

Thanks a lot to all you Kommie Bastards who buy Harbor Freight stuff!!!!!

When someone in the US makes a near-disposable belt sander for less than $20, let me know.

I'd say I have probably spent at least $2K at HF.

Anybody see their recent sale ad? I'm thinking about that cheap $99.00 10" compound sliding miter saw. I wanna slap a dry segmented diamond stone cutting blade on it and use it to cut cement pavers. I'm not paying $500 for a wet saw. I've seen HF's wet saw, it is cheap and it looks too cheap. And those wet saws don't look like they can cut angles as well as a miter saw can do.

Hey now! Isn't that what soap and a shower is for? I don't think we need to know about your cleanliness down there.

:D

My parts are REALLY dirty. Soap and water ain't gonna cut it. I'm thinking some Simple Green straight up and a wire brush might do it.

I guess I should have cleaned my parts on a regular basis rather than letting it become a smelly, crusty buildup. Hindsight is 20/20 I suppose. :D

If you need to cut bricks then nations rent is your friend, they have everything.
