    Milwaukee M18 leaf blower?

    Love mine. I've owned it over a year, and it works great. I have mostly 3.0 batteries, and never run down more than 2 batteries to leaf blow my smallish front and backyard + my deck.

    Not Impressed by Tekton

    "damage", what are you talking about?! I highly doubt this little thread on a tool/garage forum is hurting Tekton, lol. Not sure why you're so fixated on people quoting you. Who cares man, post all you want! It's a free country (well, maybe not as free as it should be, but post away!)

    Wet Floor In the Spring

    I used to have season tickets to the Boston Bruins. This was (probably still is) a big problem up in the balcony at TD Garden. During the playoffs in springtime I saw more than a few people slip and fall on the wet concrete steps. Not good! I was shocked they never did anything about it over...

    This clown ... er bear

    Watched the whole video. I'm not a pro, and have some Snap-on hand tools that I think are fantastic (yeah, I'm fortunate enough to be able to afford some Snappy), but that said I think there is alot of truth in that video. I've heard/read about some of the nightmarish **** the dealers have...
