    100$ish mag drills worth it? We're about to find out.

    So I have a slat style table - built from inspiration from here. I still want holes. I want all the options, there are things like stops and corners that work better with holes than the slat gaps.

    100$ish mag drills worth it? We're about to find out.

    My main concern is the speed. When I run annuars on my mill I like to keep it down around 3-500 RPM. A Hougen HMD900 for example is 450 RPM, The Milwaukee is 400/900 dual speed, A Fein 137 is 130-520 RPM. If its spinning too fast it may cause the cutters to burn up, and even the cheap ones arent...

    Zoro Deals Thread

    FYI I got an "offer" for 10% off at zoro if I paid with paypal. It came from paypal, not zoro. Just ordered and I was able to stack a 20% email coupon I got with the 10% off. Ordered all the big stuff I needed for the new power panel in the garage

    Amazon Warehouse Deals

    Our local Bargain Hunts do a weekly rotation of amazon returns. They pick out the good stuff and put it for about 20-25% of retail, then the other stuff starts a $7/item on the first day and goes down $1/day till they replace the bins in a week. In a similar story I got a godox studio flash...

    Amazon Warehouse Deals

    You have cheap tools, you want better. So you order a set, out the good stuff in your toolbox and the cheap back in the package, return it to Amazon. The person checking returns doesn't know tools, they could be checking a set of bedsheets next. There are a lot of entitled people who don't see...

    I never get them. My dad gets them every few months. I'm sure there is something causing it but I can't tell what consistently triggers them to send.
