Those yellow safety keys in the middle of the on/off switch were popular 1980ish, so I'd say this unit is about 45 years old. She's almost a cougar!

Gents, thank you for the quick replies last week. I went ahead and ordered a pair of 8.0 batteries with the prepurchase reassurance I was looking for. I own a pair of 8.0s that I use in the dual battery blower and string trimmer I purchased on one of the Home Depot deals in the spring. Having 4...

Are these genuine Milwaukee batteries sold by a rouge reseller? Supposedly Amazon is not an authorized Milwaukee reseller, but I'm tempted to buy and compare to the current ones I have from Home Depot.

I'm six lights deep on the M12 platform. This one has replaced my M12 stick light as my favorite go-to light. Glad the magnet is built in in and not the overpriced accessory (49-24-2351) that is a must buy to make the M12 stick most useful.

Especially if it has a detachable handheld shower apparatus, a shower stall or combo tub in the garage is good for washing the shop canine/manager if need be...

Thanks for the pointer on this light. I just wanted to post an FYI that I also found this one http://www.amazon.com/dp/B000256R2S/?tag=atomicindus08-20 which looks like the same light but is black and has a 25ft cord while the one you posted is yellow with a 6ft cord. Some might want to be like...

Very nice... very, very nice!! Well thought out! I like how you mounted the vise on a peninsula to give room for working on items hang below the table top. If you weren't so far away in Sarah Palinville, Alaska, I'd have you build me one. I'd have you add one small drawer underneath the...

Should we read anything into the Obama-Biden lawn sign that suddenly appears in the 'junk pile' background of your later photos? Are you subliminally trying to tell us something?

I find myself amazed how many like photos end up on eBay with the seller wanting in excess of $10k for the box and the contents...

I second tojan10's recommendation of the Goretex based shop vac filters. Let me add that the filters are HEPA rated and are especially good for vacuuming drywall dust. No different than any other filter, the drywall dust will eventually accumulate and clog the filter. I find that soaking it...

The picture is unclear. Check to see if your digital camera has a macro mode and try again. The macro mode is typically only accessible via a button or menu, but does wonders for the clarity of up close shots...

Nice review and nice pictures--Thanks! What brand are the jack stands and do you like them?

KY always makes it easier on the skin too! LOL! Thanks for the ATF tip... I never heard that one before.

I guess he couldn't figure out how to send eBay Admin an email... One has to think that he was going to take the better bid and play dumb on the other. Since neither auction met reserve, he now has two listing fees to pay. eBay is unlikely to let him play dumb on that one...

Like I said KW = Kenworth, the brand of trucks ole Gary Ridgway painted for a living before he was finally caught...
