i have to amend my review on these....I'd avoid them. While they do seem to work OK for the sole purpose of driving screws, I was installing a garbage disposal the other day and the retainer nut has a slot that fits a round screwdriver shank just perfectly...which I've always used a...

They sent me a label (it lists the weight at 7lbs lol)....I will not be on the hook for anything, if I am....my bank (business credit card) will put an end to that real quick. I'm packing it up this afternoon and wheeling it out to my UPS guy that'll be here around 4pm.

I figured I post this here. Seems no local tire shops can balance anything right, so I set off to do it myself. I've used plenty of balancers at the various shops I've worked at over the years so I'm not new at it.....but I don't have room at home for a big heavy professional unit. Many...

It appears that Klein has won the battle....just barely over the Dewalt. Milwaukee is a distant 3rd. Bosch is too big, and not one handed.

Thanks for the replies. I need one handed operation, so that rules out a few. I'm always running around my shop / storage / somewhere else so I need something that fits nicely in my pocket, which rules out the traditional Stanley 99 type knives...too big. Already carry phone, keys, and...

I cut up a lot of cardboard, and recently my weapon of choice has been the Milwaukee Fastback utility knife. This one: https://www.milwaukeetool.com/products/details/3pk-fastback-compact-folding-utility-knife/48-22-1522 It has vanished somewhere, and while I'm certain it will appear in a...

I took a short video, but can't upload it. I don't have a host. Cliffs notes, got about 1" deep in 10 seconds or so, then musta hit a piece of rebar or something because the carbide tip is gone now lol.

I need to bolt my compressor down, so I'll try and get one this weekend

Dunno what to tell you. Steady pressure and high speed eats right through it. Slower obviously that drilling a hole through a 4x4 piece of wood, but again, it wasn't slow by any means. I've drilled lots of holes in concrete for various anchors and whatever over the years, and I've always...

One bit, still have it and occasionally use it 15 years later. Slab was probably 40 years old, I did about 30-40 holes 4" deep. Each took about 30-40 seconds if I had to guess.

I have a Makita hammer drill I bought years ago when I was pouring a curb and needed to set 30 or so anchors in an existing slab. I fail to see the attraction....it works the same as my non-hammer drill, which works just fine doing 5/8" holes in concrete. I've drilled plenty of concrete, and...

Lots of M7 brake bleeder screws use a 7mm head.

I have a bunch of those that need the cap retainer/seal retainer....I priced all the parts to make them work right again and it was less expensive to just buy a 4 pack of the normal style fuel jugs.

always, story of my life.

Before attempting inserting anything....especially on a low stress fastener like for a valve cover, you might try a stud. Often times, there are plenty of good threads underneath the messed up threads and they will catch a stud or a longer bolt and perform adequately. Other times they...
