Of those three, I would go with number three, the Stanley.
Mine is a Langdon Acme. Old, but works just fine. I suspect that
Stanley would be similar.

I had the Hempe style one once. I couldn't get the blade to tension enough to not flex in the cut. Maybe I had a bad one or possibly my technique needs work but that was my experience with it.

The second option? Walk into a Lowes and buy the same thing, except it will be in a Craftsman box
The 3rd one? Would be nice...until you look at the cost of shipping the dang thing.....
Option 2 sounds better...not best, just better than the other 2.
IF there was a way to getone of my extra boxes to you, I would.....I have the Jorgensen version of #2 option....and there is a Stanley #2246A that I no longer need. But, the shipping would be a little bit too much $$$.....
the Jorgensen...and
If I send you the funds how much would it cost to ship the Jorgensen to me??
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

I have no idea.....depends on how much the box weighs, and what size it is.....
Show me a picture, I'll build a project from that
