    Have you tried the inflator on road bike tires? How good is it at getting a tire from 70 to 95psi ish? How good is the presta valve adapter's grip on the valve? Have you tried seating a road/mtb tubeless tire with it? Thanks!

    Anything that fits the small dremels fits the Milwaukee. Only exception I found was a Sears planner attachment, that also doesn't fit dremels. I had to modify the tool a bit to get it to fit.

    Having just done a kitchen, I'd get the right angle impact over the standard impact. Unless you have a whole catalog of drill bits, you can just use the impact driver for most of the drilling using hex bits. Only downside of hex bits are the length, which tend to be 1/2 the length of std bits...

    I'm in the middle of a door project. I'm using a Bosch corded planner. I don't think a planner is something to break the budget on. Spend the saving on tools to secure your work so you can plane better. I'm using a corded unit and cord management is not a hassle because you really can't use a...

    Wouldn't the right angle impact be more handy and have more tq? Seems like the hex drill bits would be smaller than a normal drill bit, you can drive fasteners in better, and put a 1/4 socket adapter for auto work.

    I bought one of their knives. It advertised one hand opening. I"m not a knife guy, but I have not found a motion that gets the f-er opened with one hand. Any tips?:headscrat

    These are "mutilated samples" specifically mutilated in an industry-agreed upon way so they dont have to pay import duty on sales and engineering samples. Power Tool industry cuts the cord, clothing industry usually takes a big hole out the center back of a garment.

    M12 Fuel Ratchets

    You'll generally have more room to put an adapter on for larger sockets and the larger bolts require more tq. Get the 3/8.

    I haven't gotten my tool either. RocketIAQ has a decent reviews as a company. Most stores drop ship from the tool suppliers warehouse. Milwaukee would send an ASN (shipping notification) to Rocketiaq, then Rocketiaq would need to recieve that message, trigger an event to then send that...

    Vac - are the 0880 or 0882 m18 vacs worth buying? Looking for something to clean up construction wood bits around the house and pick up french fries in the car. Is one better than the other? Can the 0880 be used as a seat?

    Mid Tq vs low tq on common lug nuts. I need a impact good to remove 125ft/lb lugs in the snow belt. I've found the 117lb rated m12 was good enough for 90ftlb. Any evidence that the 210ft/lb M18 Fuel impacts (2755b) won't be good enough? I found a great deal (RocketIAQ $229 for the 3/8 2754...
