Bob Bob.... when have you EVER seen a situation when a compressor would work
when you needed an O-ring ??? but it would be nice, wouldn't it

>> HF and their products' quality--or lack thereof--come up as a
topic every now and then. I think they're good for tools you use once in a
lifetime or the occasional quality product at a decent price. However, the
last two internet orders I've placed had serious issues. In both cases they
charged me for, and shipped, something not even close to what I ordered. The
last time I ordered a power steering pump pulley puller set and they sent a
sheet metal screw assortment! The items are, obviously, completely different
and the part numbers weren't even close (and the wrong items shipped were
quite a bit less expensive than what I ordered).

similar problems? It seems like they're using blind monkeys to pull their
stuff for shipment. In both cases a call to customer service straightened
things out, and they had me keep the wrong items--whether I needed/wanted them
or not--but I wonder if they were to send me a compressor or welder instead of
the box of O-rings I ordered if they'd be so generous.
