A couple of things showed up in the mail today. I’ve got several pairs of Klein and Greenlee wire strippers, but none of them strip 6 gauge stranded wire and the Southwire do. The Ideal can light installation kit is something that I’ve been needing for the spring tool that it contains, but I had...

Stopped by Lowe’s after Church today to pick up a few conduit fittings and other items I’ll need for a job tomorrow. Of course, I HAD to look through the tools while I was there and in no hurry to get out and ended up picking up a few things. I needed a new hex key set because I partially...

It’ll go on sale tomorrow! 😅

I stopped by Sherwin-Williams today to get some paint for a honey-do project this weekend and picked up a Purdy paint brush comb to help to refresh a few old brushes. I’d actually been wanting one of these for awhile but every time I was somewhere and thought to look for one, they either didn’t...

I had to run to the local lumber yard during lunch today and pick up a sheet of OSB. While there, I noticed that they had gotten in some DeWalt DWHT10990 Atomic folding utility knives. Did I need it? No, but for $12, I thought why not? I’ve probably got 7-8 folding and non-folding utility knives...

Today I received an edge guide for my DeWalt DCW600 20v router. It’s a NOS item that was made before the DCW600 was released, but I checked with DeWalt and they said it would work just fine. I also ordered a few pairs (only one pair shown) of work gloves. I’ve got about four pairs of...

Better or worse?

With some of the guys that I work around, I hope that they are idiot proof as well!

In true Garage Journal fashion, I saw your post and stopped by Ace this morning. While there, I also picked up a DeWalt Micro-USB cable and a USB-C cable.

The mailman dropped off a DeWalt DXMA1310849 USB charging block today. After dinner, my best friend came over to give me something. He had gone down to his brother’s in Chattanooga over the Labor Day weekend and went to a garage sale a few doors down from his brother’s house. He found a very...

Acme Tools is now taking pre-orders for the DeWalt DWAFHLDKC5 keychain bit holders, which are due to be released in October.

I was driving by Lowe’s this morning and, because I used my last one this week, I decided to stop in and get a few 20 amp receptacles to replenish the stock on my van. While there, I didn’t see much in the way of Labor Day sale items that interested me, but I did pick up this 35 piece set of...

Skeeter….a fairly new addition to our family. She’ll be a year old on December 8 and we’ve had her about 6 months. We named her Skeeter because when she wants to be, which is most of the time, she can be as aggravating as any mosquito ever thought about being! 😂 We love her though!

I went to Ace Hardware this morning to pick up some things I’ve been meaning to get. I bought this Packout to hold wire nuts, staples and other small electrical items. I’ve been wanting a cordless screwdriver for awhile now and, after some research, I decided on the Craftsman. I know there...

I live up a “holler” in rural South East Kentucky. Mine is the last house and the road dead-ends into it. In order for delivery trucks to turn around, they must come to within about 50’ of the house, so I’ve never had an issue with packages not reaching the house. This works out great for us...
