E3 2012: Show coverage starts here
We've touched down in Los Angeles, have picked up our press passes, and our knees are trembling at the thought of the swarm of top games titles we're about to play. Yep, it's E3 2012 time and Pocket-lint is ready to rock.
Over the next five days, we'll be reporting live from the Electronics Entertainment Expo, on the big announcements from the top-dog hardware manufacturers - Microsoft, Sony and Nintendo. We'll also bring you hands-ons and previews of some of the hottest games coming up in 2012 and beyond.
And, if the posters already hung at the LA convention centre are any indication, that should include Tomb Raider, Assassin's Creed III, Medal of Honor: Warfighter, Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and many more.
The biggest hardware announcement at the show is going to be from Nintendo as the company officially launches its next-generation console, the Nintendo Wii U - not just the concept model we saw last year.
Meanwhile, Microsoft is expected to launch a new music service for the Xbox 360 and further enhance the idea that its console and Kinect sensor are not just about playing games.
Sony, however, remains an enigma. What could it have up its sleeve?
To follow all the latest news, first look reviews, photos, gossip and morehead over to our dedicated E3 2012 homepage, add our E3 2012 RSS feed to your RSS reader, or follow us on Twitter (@pocketlint).

I purchased this Tool Cart For use at home today.I have been a Mechanic since 1985 and normally stayed with the Name Brand made in the USA tools and tool boxes. It seems that the days where everything made overseas used to be junk out of the box is over. Apparently manufactures overseas have wised up and started making great products at a fantastic price. Assembly is very easy yet time consuming so do not rush it. Simply read the instructions.some of the diagrams are hard to see at least for this old guy. will a little common sense instructions really are not needed. You will have two unlabeled bags of fasteners, one bag has bolts nylon lock nuts and flat washers which is for the impressive very heavy duty large casters Two of these bolts go on the handle so don't worry about having extra once you install them . ( note the swivel casters has grease fittings so if you do not have a grease gun pick one up while your at Harbor Freight. The other bag of fasteners is obviously for the rest of the cart. One important but obvious point during assembly is to assemble this cart on a LEVEL surface. if your garage floor has a slight pitch to drain water out of the garage, bring the box in doors and assemble it in the house if your wife will let you. Thankfully I have a understanding wife.This is a very heavy cart therefor two people are needed to install the box onto the legs, without scratching it. however the box is much lighter if you remove the drawers before lifting it onto the legs. the drawers come out easily by pulling the drawer out then push down on the little black tab on the drawer slide and up on the other side while pulling the drawer out. just be careful reinstalling them so you do not bend the slides or damage any of the roller bearings ( make sure the drawer is engaged into the slide assembly properly before closing the drawer completely when putting the drawers back in)This tool cart was packed very well and I found it with no damage. if they try and give you one with damaged packaging refuse it and ask for a different one. it has many holes drilled into both sides of the cart for storing screw drivers and pry bars yet I wish they would have made some of them the right size for storing long 3/8 drive extensions. No big deal once I break it in some and get over the new shiny paint I will just drill some of the holes bigger. For a tool cart I was impressed with how large and tall it is. the drawers open nearly all the way so you will not have a dead zone that you cant see what is in there like some other cheaper carts. ( just do not open all the drawers at one time, I am sure you will regret it if you do and have a lot of weight in them.I have not finished loading it down with the tools I want in my new cart but you will get the idea of how many tools you can get in the cart. Locks normally only keep honest people out of your stuff, If theft of tools from your cart is a concern find a secondary way to lock the lid down. The lock is cheaply made and could be forced open with a large pry bar the lid doesn't have much in the way of reinforcement built into it so security may be a concern. ( this is where the Name Brand very expensive tool carts have an advantage over US General Pro ) Anyone mechanically inclined could find a way to make it better with little effort. The Keys are small and cheap yet they give you four of them. As you can see by my pictures there is no Giant US General Pro sticker on the inside lid just a warning label with the Model and serial number. ( which is fine by me, more room for performance parts stickers ).The full size drawers are just about the perfect size for the Tool ( wrench organizer that Harbor freight sells. however some of the space is wasted as you see with Allen wrench holders.I will most likely modify that section to hold other wrenches at a later date. The lower shelf seems to be a waste of space as it will most likely stay empty since its so small( anything you put down there would prove to be a pain to get to. ( would be nice if they had a add on drawer you could buy to fill this dead space ). I didn't think about it when I assembled mine, but I will go back and add a drop of lock tight to each bolt to insure they will not come loose. ( so save yourself some grief and lock tight it during assembly. the castors will not need any since they have Nylon Lock nuts. Overall a great Tool cart for the sale price,I am not so sure I would have purchased it at full price.

Drawers slide well and the sheet metal is thicker than I expected for the price. Instructions are not as bad as they could be but could also be better; they rate a 3. It rolls well.Drawer releases are plastic and were broken out of the box. The front top corner of the toolbox case was damaged (forklift?) out of the box as well. This was not apparent from the outside. We drove to the store 40 miles away to get it, so a return is a real pain.We bought this for a rolling tool cabinet at our shop, and it will do the job. For the price, it's acceptable since we don't have time to return it. Apparently we as consumers have become used to low quality if all the other reviewers think this is a great toolbox. It's not awful, but I'm guessing they don't sell any at the supposed retail of $349. Anything over the $165 we paid would be too much.

Awesome cart, couldn't be more statisfied
By Iowa Welder
from Iowa
The fit and finish on my tool cart was perfect. I unpacked it carefully, used the cardboard while building to protect the paint and assembled all loose as instructed. Went together very easy, describing which bolt was which was the only tough part, not great directions there but can be figured out. They even included a few extra bolts, nuts and washers, a nice touch in case you loose 1, metric can be difficult to find. The drawers work flawlessly, I drilled the rivets out to remove the lock bar on the lid. Wanted my drawers to open with top closed, love the latches on the drawers. It does take a bit of getting used to which side to put your hand on, but a minor inconvience to keep drawers closed while rolling around.I use mine for a welding cart, got the folding shelf and welded extra bracing on it and painted to match so the 100lb welder could set on the side and wheel around with the tools. Also built a cord holder for the welder on the shelf and love that I can wheel all of it around together. Trying to figure out how to enclose the bottom with access doors to keep grinding dust off the bottom shelf.This is a very nice tool cart, for the money it just can't be beat. I did alot of research on carts and think I choose right. I got it during the parking lot sale and it was $20 cheaper, would actually pay full price for it, it really is worth it. Wheels around smooth, great finish and might have to get another for other tools. Buy it, you will ot regret it.

Great value for the price. Nice variety of different size drawers to put in an assortment of tools. Easy to push cart around. Drawers are initially a little stiff pulling out or pushing in all the way. Closing the top locks all the drawers.

If you are considering buying this Cart, do it.
By Smokey The Bear
from New York, NY
We all know Harbor Freight quality matches the price - but in this case, this cart is fantastic. I loaded it up with heavy tools, and it rolls easily, drawers slide smoothly, and the locks on the drawers are a must if you move your cart around while working. Word of advice, keep all the nuts and bolts snug, but not tight, during assembly, and then go back and tighten them all once every part is put in place, otherwise, you will have a devil of a time trying to line up all the holes. I had to go back and loosen all of them and then retighten, but once complete, this thing rocks. Wish I had bought it sooner!Oh, and if you are debating between this model, and the slightly less expensive 'black' 4 drawer model, spend the extra money and get this one.
Great Buy!

Re: Concerned that my blog has been added to your archive
Peter Frouman'
"However, the Internet Archive crawler software (Heritrix) does indeed honor it by default. If you doubt the official statements of IA on this, you can easily verify it by running the software yourself or examining its source code."
Actually this link:
is much more useful.
"Unless you're just trolling (which seems quite likely)"
Ah! I wondered how long it would take before you pulled that lame ass shit! You guys need new material!
So for the record, Trolling I don't know, Copyright / Intellectual Property I know well.
"I'm baffled as to why you seem to think that the official IA policy statements about the behaviour of their crawler are unreliable"
Check your facts, the IA tells you themselves that their software is not 100% reliable. Do you need direction to the exact page where you (and everyone else) can verify this info?
It's within the IA blog.
"but the statements of random individual users editing a wiki for a completely separate project (that has apparently contributed volunteer time to IA projects) is somehow more reliable."
And again you fail and fail miserably with that attempt too! Here's a direct quote from the IA blog:
"The prolific volunteers of Archive Team spent a lot of time this year archiving web sites on the verge of disappearing and then contributing those records to Internet Archive."
"Using the Robot Exclusion Standard is currently the most efficient and reliable method for publishers to communicate their preferences regarding the indexing and archiving of content they publish. Posting random complaints on a forum is much less likely to have the desired result."
Like many, I would argue the law is the "most efficient and reliable method for publishers to communicate their preferences regarding the indexing and archiving of content they publish.".
"DMCA notices can indeed be a useful tool to request removal of actual infringements. However, submitting DMCA notices with false statements to request the removal of non-infringing content is very risky"
Fail and fails again; no where did I mention "submitting DMCA notices with false statements" because it can indeed result in civil liability.
"I would suggest that anyone considering filing a DMCA notice get legal counsel from a licensed attorney with expertise in U.S. intellectual property law. Getting help from some random anonymous and completely unqualified person to draft a DMCA notice could turn out to be a very expensive mistake."
I bet you would! Who care? Who are you? And do you really think people are not going to read for themselves?, and just take your word for it?
, wonderful step-by-step instructions! Helpful with counter-notices as well!
Created by the EFF and Google if I'm not mistaken?
"It should also be noted that recipients of DMCA notices have no legal obligation to respond to them or take any action (including removal) in response to them. They merely have the option to do so to possibly avoid potential liability but if there is no infringement, there is no liability (except possibly for legal expenses that can't be collected from the losing party)."
Now I know without doubt that you have no idea what the f@$K you're taking about!, which is the only reason I added to this messy thread in the first place; you're 100% wrong on so many key points it's unbelievable!
People will, and can read for themselves, all the information is freely available for anyone interested.
Peter Frouman you are either clueless, or completely confused by the information you're reading; which is entirely possible, its one thing to read Bills/Acts/Laws ... but if you're not comprehending.
In any case, it's been interesting.

Portable PlainEdit.NET
editor's review
Portable PlainEdit.NET is an intuitive word processor with advanced settings and support for syntax highlighting. It can help you create ANSI, UTF-8 and Unicode files and write code in programming and scripting languages, such as C++, C#, CSS, Java, JavaScript, Perl, PHP, SQL and XML.
Portability advantages
Since there is no installation involved, you can extract the program files to a custom directory on the disk and immediately launch the executable, as well as save Portable PlainEdit.NET to a USB flash disk or other removable storage unit, in order to run it on any computer effortlessly and without any other installers.
More importantly, the Windows registry does not suffer modifications, and no extra files are created on the HDD without your permission, so no traces are left behind after removing the app.
Familiar interface with intuitive options
The GUI is classical for a text editor, based on a simple window with a minimalistic layout. Multiple tabs are supported, so you can work on multiple projects at the same time.
So, it is possible to copy and add text, insert text from external files, change the selection mode (normal, lines, columns), search and replace text, search forwards and backwards, perform an incremental search, set bookmarks, jump to a line or position, as well as to insert date and time stamps, file names, GUID, command lines, and special characters from a map.
Configure formatting settings
As far as formatting attributes are concerned, you can convert text in numerous ways (e.g. hexadecimal, lowercase, HTML encoding), indent and unindent paragraphs, sort lines in ascending or descending order, wrap long lines, replace HTML special characters, and use XHTML tags. It is possible to change the syntax highlighting mode easily, zoom in and out, enable word wrapping mode, configure hotkeys for most commands available, and so on.
Evaluation and conclusion
The program does not put a strain on computer performance, since it runs on low CPU and RAM. It has a good response time and works well, without triggering Windows to hang, crash or pop up error messages. All in all, Portable PlainEdit.NET proves to be a pretty resourceful text editor.

recommendations for best lathe threading setup
I'm looking around at what is available in cutting tools for threading operations on a lathe, and would like any experience-based or expert opinions on how best to outfit a 12" 5900-series Clausing lathe for internal and external threading. My needs might include a range of threads from 40-16 TPI for instrumentation applications and general purpose usage. I have seen information that says laydown type inserts are the best if you go to insert technology, but I am concerned that they may be limited for smaller ID threading work. I have very limited experience in single point threading, so I'm open to any considerations.

I have a Clausing 5914 lathe and use the size A Swiss 40 position QC tool post with retracting internal (AFI) and external (AFE) thread cutting holders. The larger size E tool post would probably fit the lathe as well. I have had great success with this equipment. I will warn you that it is quite expensive. Even when I bought my set it was half the price of the new Jet 12x36 lathe for which i bought it.

I would really like to make one of those retracting thread cutting holders for my Aloris tool post. I just need to find someone with one to get me some close up photos of the workings so I can reverse engineer .

The carbide insert threading holders do a great job for external threads and I use mine all the time. For internal threads you can buy a threading bar that uses inserts but I don't have or use them. I make my own boring bars and sharpen cutters to thread with. Internal threading can be tricky in a blind hole.
The lay-down threading holders and inserts is the most expensive to get into, but also the most flexible and produce the best-quality threads that can be single-pointed. If you use the partial or full-form inserts, you can't use the same inserts for I.D. and O.D. threads because of differing thread heights.
If starting out with them, the cheapest way into it is getting the generic inserts that cover a range of 60 degree threads, but doing that you'll sacrifice quality because the insert can't "top" the thread and you'll have too small a tip radius for coarse pitch threads, too big a tip radius for fine threads.
When a job comes up that you're going to do a lot of, it's time to buy a specific-pitch cresting insert. Add to the collection as time and money allow, you'll never regret it. Beautiful-looking threads. For O.D. threading get a holder that takes 16EL/R (1/2" I.C.) size inserts, as those afford the widest range of thread pitches in cresting inserts (8 to 72 tpi). The I.D. threading bars are more troublesome. You might need a range of threading insert sizes, depending upon how small a bore you need to get into. The insert start with 8IL/R (3/16" I.C.), and go up from there including 11IL/R (1/4" I.C.), 16 and so on. I find using threading inserts in a blind hole no worse than other styles, BTW.
Specman, I go with Pixman all the way. Out here I can buy the specific pitch, cresting, threading inserts (called full form) in two's instead of boxes of ten. They are relatively expensive - twice the price of the general turning inserts. Buying two's has allowed me to build up a fair range of threading sizes. Of course you need the holders which are expensive, but having them is a pleasure compared to grinding tools, and I find that the inserts can last a long time, with good coolant and easy cutting parameters.
J-Head, my TOS lathe has an integral retracting mechanism in the toolpost, but it is the square type post not Aloris. It's not involved, just a cam on a wedge shaped slide and works both ways, "in and out", for external and internal boring/threading. The TOS can go direct from forward to reverse spindle rotation, and has no threading dial. I use the retract and reverse method of threading exclusively on manual threading. Can easily strip and send photo's if you want, my cross and compound slides could do with a clean up anyway.
I agree with Bach and Pixman with the laydowns. Even though some on this site say you can't use them on a manual machine I've found just the opposite! They work great. I use Carmex ( made in Israel) and they perform just fine. If you want American made Valenite has them, 'cept Carmex makes them for Valenite and cost less. Pictured below is a head ring for a hyd. cyl. The thread is 9" - 12, so I D doesn't matter.
We also have good sources for buying threading inserts in small quantities here in the USA. MSC comes to mind, but a lot of local distributors can also supply them. Inserts from Carmex, Valenite, Kennametal and others work well. I think the Carmex threading inserts are a good value in their uncoated grades. You're typically threading at low speeds anyhow because of machine limitations (or operator hand-eye coordination), so for many applications coatings are little advantage for more money. Do use coated inserts on abrasive materials though.
Personally I don't care for the way Sandvik Coromant labels theirs as "R166", and that they price them too high makes it easy to say no.

Ifanger stuff is the cat's miaow for internal threads especially in small sizes.
I believe there are US manafacturers offering similar equipment (Armstrong, maybe?)
You're right about Carmex making some threading inserts for Valenite, though not all by a long shot. Some are still made at their plant in Westminster SC, as are the vast majority of their turning and milling inserts.
For very small I.D. threading, I like the Vardex "Micro" system of solid carbide bars because they can be had double-ended, are of good carbide, and well-stocked in WI. I think thy're having a special deal for their single-ended ones right now where you get a free holder for buying 5 inserts (bars).

Ok, assuming "laydown' means the actual way the insert fits into the holder, Flat , cuts in the same fashion as a standard square, diamond insert?

Thanks to all who commented. I'm not sure I want to spend $800-1000 on the Swiss Multiquick stuff (the Penn Tool site operates on the tried and true "if you have to ask, you can't afford it" principle, apparently). I'll probably go with the inserts that cover some range of pitches.
You could probably find a decent used holder on Ebay. What size shanks can your machine take? For the 16ER size inserts, holders can be had for shanks sizes 3/8" to 1-1/4".
From Valenite they're specified as "SER xxxx X16" format. The "xxxx" represents the shank height i.e. 0500 = 1/2", 0750 = 3/4", etc. In the "X16" format, the letter represented at "X" is length of shank, i.e. D = 2.5", H = 4", K = 5", etc. The "16" is the insert size.
Kennametal and Vardex use the LSASR-xx3 format. The "xx" represents shank size expressed in eigths of an inch. An LSASR-83 is 1/2", LSASR-103 is 3/4", etc. Metric shanks are also available.
The first inserts to buy would be 16ER-A60 for threads from 48 to 16 TPI, and 16ER-G60 for threads from 14 to 8 TPI. Later, buy a couple of pitch-specifc inserts for those threads you do most often.

I bought a Carmex kit from MSC years ago. It had a selection of inserts that came with the kit. I then buy inserts as needed.
Both external and internal kits were purchased. I think the other one is Valenite, but it is also made in Israel, so I'm guessing it is Carmex also.
For really small bores, I go with one-piece carbide thread tools, like Accu-pro and SCT(?). The ones that look like boring bars, but are thread tools.
I do prototype and repair work in the lab here. So the kits were nice to have. I then buy as I need, or grind a tool from HSS for the boring bar, or sometimes grind a one-piece tool from a piece of HSS. I have experience grinding my own tools, but I like the insert stuff for threading especially.
I also like to have thread inserts for my top-notch type tooling. This is the tooling I use for larger grooves and some turning/facing work (fine work). I can get threading inserts for it for external threading (they make internal tooling too, but I don't have a holder.) I think my top-notch stuff is either Valenite or Kennemetal (the holders, I'm not sure of the inserts). Nice and rigid.
You guessed right, many (though not all) of the Valenite ER threading inserts are made by Carmex in Israel. You did well buying sets like that. For internal threading in small bores, I also go with the solid carbide Accu-Pro, SCT, or (preferred) Micro 100 brands. Anything big enough to get an insert in, I go with those.

I haven't yet decided what to buy exactly, but the range of informational responses is great. To answer Pixman: The toolpost I have is a BXA-size clone (typical Chinese, although it's not too bad quality-wise), and the holders will take a 5/8" shank typically. I've been scouting eBay for what may be available.
On a related topic -- What about those Aloris-style threading tools with the short blade that sort of hangs off the side of the holder? Do those work well? Obviously not suited for internal work, but are there disadvantages to that sort of setup, other than the fact that the cutting tool is HSS (I think)?
