I have one of these saws and was wondering if they were capable of taking a dado blade. Nothing huge just want to be able to do 3/4 inch wide dado/rabbits

Message sent your way. Thanks

I assime all I have to do is pull the four Allen head bolts on the rear to get to the vanes, I have actually never been in an impact before. And am I removing all of the springs or the offending ones

Has anyone rebuilt a ASTRO nano yet? I have had mine for about 2 years and use it professionally and it laid down on me today while replacing a transmission. I love the gun and need it back up and running pretty quick. It is weak and sometimes just hisses.

I have some questions that the people at my local hf can't answer about these boxes. My big one is what is the capacity of the drawers? I am assuming 100 lb per drawer but would like to know. Also can the drawers be moved around and rearranged? Thanks

I got the astro pneumatic set and it works fine for me.

I have been looking for a 1/4 inch flex head ratchet for some tight spots. Today I was on the matco truck (he also sells gear wrench) and asked him to price a matco one and a gearwrench one. He tells me the matco price of like 120 and then informed me that the gearwrench ones are total junk...

I have the astro nano and really like it. I have used it to pull wheels, suspension bolts, and cv axle nuts with no trouble. It is stout for its size but does have its limitations. I know for a fact it won't press dodge 3/4 ton ball joints out. :)

I was about to order a 1/2 nano on amazon and saw that now there is a nano max now. I have tried searching but found little on it. Has anyone here had their hands on one yet? I am curious to know if the extra torque is worth the added size?

Who makes a good set of non marring trim panel tools? I don't want something that is going to break the first use.

I am looking at getting a tire machine for myself mainly to work on my own vehicles and the many implement tires on the farm. I keep having break downs when all of the local tire shops are closed. Anyway I have been looking at the Ranger 745 made by bendpak or the dannmar t100. I know they...

Plugs will work 95 percent of the time. They are more prone to leaking and I have removed several plugs to replace them with plug patches. I have seen 10 ply tires spit plugs out before due to the higher air pressure. And no it wasn't an installation error, it was usually a larger size...

Matco makes a nice 6 piece set, no metric though

Nice, i love my 40sl

Let us know how you like it. I have been looking hard at autel but haven't come to a conclusion yet.
