I'm rather glad they finally upped the ante. I have the Milwaukee high torque impact on my mobile work truck, and the IR w7150 in my own tools, with the old makita impact at home. At 1/2 the power and larger than the others, the old makita impact is kinda ****. I'm hoping this new one works...

That looks like a really good deal, actually, may have to jump on it! Something about that old bahco was really unique and I liked it quite a bit, but I also carried this red husky around for a long time, and being a small folder without extra blades, it was very light in the pocket and low...

Hey guys, looking to replace one of my favorite novelty tools I've somehow lost (pretty sure it was stolen at work, been almost a year or more). Basically, it was a utility knife that you could squeeze to pop out the blade, hit a button to retract, and blade changeouts were about 5 seconds, so...

Thanks for the read! I actually used some of his recomendations, coupled with anther few youtuber's to polish my freshly painted Coil Covers for my C6 Z06 engine. WOW. I have cut and buffed a car before, but a little expert help goes a long way. Coupled with another tip, I did a full...

**10-18-15 Edit, New photos for newly listed items at : https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=oa.585679944904047&type=1 Hello guys, This is going to be my ongoing for sale thread. I have thousands of tools in my garage, and only two hands, need to thin it out a little. I've bought a few...

Can't wait! So soon! :-D

I'm peeing myself with excitement. So glad I grabbed some of these. Even got another guy in with us. Can't wait!

Just paid my invoice on two. Pretty excited to get cooking. He seems to know exact dimesnions/weight and is getting actual quotes. My exact shipping cost was included in my invoice, and its not rounded, its a few odd numbers, so He is using a shipping calc with dims/weight/zip. Cheers Nick

I really am quite a makita fan these days. Before owning a LXT tools, I loved my Dewalt 18v xrp stuff. My hammerdrill, while now rather heavy, was very, very good. dcd hammer drill I had a hammer drill, impact driver, and 3 impact wrenches, all of which held up to 3 years of heavy use at...

Plasma cutter for <250 whaaaaaaa. I'm In.

Wondering what the OPs intended use is, shop use, fleet use, or home mechanic? We get by fine at the shop with just a battery tester and multi-meters, but that's just me. Its pretty easy to rule out the bad batteries when we get them. Taking care of working batteries is more important...

Bahco is a Swede company. Or was, till Snap-on bought them, because they were in bed anyway. Bahco reversible adjustable are amazing for heavy equipment/pipe/hose/being awesome. They make other nice stuff, though some odd. I have a cool spring loaded utility knife by Bahco, and it is hands...

Nice to see this out. This makes armstrong finally a viable alternative, IMO. the 60-tooth is rather loud, though, compared to a Snapon. Not that it matters too much, but I notice my matco/armstrong 60/88s are really loud, the SO is quiet. Same with my blue-point ratcheting wrenches, which...

That is crazy, finn. I will look for more quotes, I guess. My original quote was much more than that for a relatively small room. Around $3,000 and that was only partial room, I have expanded the project.

Jim et all, thank you guys for the "tips." (so punny!) Seriously, the prior experience is helpful here. I may look at the dow kit as an alternative because A. they make great products and B. 30ft of hose means I shouldn't have to move tanks at all. noted, always appreciate good suggestions...
