    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Found a Milwaukee power tool I don't like, M18 multi-tool blows It's big and bulky battery placement, and on/off switch. Cutting into expensive cabinets, I need the most control possible. Hate to say it but the Rigid one is far better. Battery placement is better too

    Knipex snap ring plier differences?

    I was kinda looking for an excuse to upgrade to some nicer tools and get a set (sounds like they won't work).

    stick a smaller prybar between the pad and rotor (open side to rear?), and gently push the piston back in you could crack the bleeder if needed, obviously rebleed.
