    Milwaukee M18 Fuel CANADA Drill/Driver combo $239

    Did a quick google and can't find a price anywhere close to that even in the USA. And that's $239 in our worthless Canadian Pesos. Works out to about $190 greenbacks.

    Milwaukee M18 Fuel CANADA Drill/Driver combo $239

    Not posting this in the Home Depot deals thread because it's in Canada only 2791-22ct Fuel drill and impact driver combo with 2x 2.0 batteries. $239 in store only at any Home Depot that has them left in stock...

    the most amazng tool ever

    I know it probably has several legit uses but to me it looks like something the Canadian Tire guy would wet his pants over. Too bad anyone outside Canada unlikely to understand why that's a bad thing.

    What does everyone use their Knipex Cobra's for?

    They're the one tool that is always in my kit no matter what type of job I'm doing.

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    Not sure, nothing in the manual about operating in cold temps.. My shop is not heated and mine does not like anything below freezing. Neither did my old DeVilbiss. It gets especially bad if the compressor is in a heated environment and the tools are not. Warm air through a cold tool makes...

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    What's your location? It might be a shot in the dark, especially this time of year, but you're not operating in cold temperatures are you? Just trying to think of what factors might cause the same issue on two different tools with similar but different mechanisms.

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    Try describing your problem to the guys at fixmy2135ti.com They were quite helpful in making sure I got the right parts to fix mine.

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    You 24a and 24b on the diagram. You would likely have replaced these with the rebuild kit. The directional buttons have teeth that engage the directional valve (#24) like a rack and pinion. The valve rotates about 90deg to direct air into one side of the cylinder (#9) for forward, or the...

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    I didn't either until I tried to find a rebuild kit and noticed most of the parts breakdowns for it actually showed the 2135. The housings are cast to look different, but the internals are all identical. No luck firmly pressing the directional buttons while experiencing the issue hey?

    IR2115QTIMAX & 2025MAX both blow air through with no action?

    I saw the exact same thing with the Mac AW5500 (2135ti) I mentioned in the IR vs Snap-On thread. This can happen if the o-rings on reverse valve assembly harden up. The reverse valve then can be easily bumped slightly out of position causing the problem you described. Next time you...

    Snap On or Ingersoll Rand 1/2 hp impact gun?

    I have a Mac AW5500, which is basically a re-branded IR 2135. Got it at an estate sale along with a Mac air hammer. Both for less than what I paid for lunch that day. It was filthy and looked like it had never seen a drop of oil. Cleaned it up and rebuilt it with the $50 IR 2135 rebuild kit...

    Tools from the old world

    My first post here. I've been passively following this thread for years. Anybody gotten their hands on one of these yet? Or any NWS screwdrivers for that matter? I think non-VDE screwdrivers must be relatively new to the NWS lineup? I can't recall seeing them in their catalog before. The...
