USA Made Black Friday
And a chance to get a USA toolset for $75!
Alright, this is where I’ll have all the USA made Black Friday deals. I’ll be pinning all comments with additional suggestions, and adding them into the main article as time permits. Rules are very simple:
The items should be (mostly) USA made.
There should be a worthwhile discount.
But first…
An ACFer wants to spread the USA love
In 2023 I encouraged you to get the last USA made Craftsman tool set. One ACFer bought more than a couple. He’s been selling them off and on over the past two years. Now he’d like to make an offer to all of you: $75 for the 88-piece set, plus actual shipping. He has a few left to sell at this rate.
We’ve been using this toolset for the last two race seasons, and I’m pleased to note that we’ve had no problems whatsoever. (With the tools. We had plenty of problems in the f**king races.)
Interested? I’ve set up the email address “craftsman@avoidablecontact.com” for anyone who wants to contact him.
And here are the deals:
Titanium framsets for sub-$1900, at Lynskey.
Origin has 40% off a lot of staples, plus $60 factory-seconds jeans.
