    Bora Squares Killer Deal on Woot!

    No sweat, tone is hard to convey in internet postings :thumbup: I looked at mine again and here are my observations: 1. There appears to be a depression at all of the markings 2. I tried scraping off the printing/paint/etching with a razor blade - when sliding across the ruler, I felt zero...

    Bora Squares Killer Deal on Woot!

    First of all, there is no need to talk down to me - I know what etching means. Let me clarify my original response. I felt recesses in the ruler with my fingernail, meaning the numbering appeared to be below the surface of the ruler. I'll check mine again, but I stand by my original...

    Bora Squares Killer Deal on Woot!

    They are not deep enough to be captured in a photo. Trust me, they are etched - you can feel the etching with your fingernail.

    Bora Squares Killer Deal on Woot!

    I received my Bora items today (the 8" multi-angle square and the combo square). Both are high quality and etched.

    Sears' response on tools made in China

    What he said. At this point, there's nothing that can be done to win you (Alamedasam) back. Plus it is a little hard to take such a rant/threat seriously with so many typos :)

    Recommend a compressor/nail gun combo?

    Thanks guys - I think I'm going to jump on that Porter Cable deal. I just wish the guns came in cases rather than a bag.

    Recommend a compressor/nail gun combo?

    My dad mentioned that he wanted a finish nailer/compressor and I'd like to surprise him with one for Christmas. I have no clue about nail guns, but it seems that there are a few combos out there at my price point (somewhere under $300 total is my goal). Any opinions on these...

    Bosch 12V Drill + 2-LBoxxes Deal

    As I mentioned earlier, here is the bare tool + insert that fits alongside the drill (this uses an identical tray to the drill). http://www.amazon.com/dp/B009K1H35K/?tag=atomicindus08-20

    Bosch 12V Drill + 2-LBoxxes Deal

    It all depends on how much you value the L-Boxxes. The drill in that link is identical to the lightning deal combo. I purchased the impact driver separately with the proper L-Boxx insert for $80 from Amazon, and it's sitting in the L-Boxx with my drill.

    Bosch 12V Drill + 2-LBoxxes Deal

    Can you try this direct link: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009QYHR84/?tag=atomicindus08-20 Could it be prime only? I'm not sure if I should jump on this and get a second one and part out the drill or not - hmm? :headscrat

    What's your favorite portable tool box?

    I have a few of the craftsman versions as well, but mine are similar to the box pictured. They are awesome.

    Harbor Freight 13 drawer tool boxes $271.99

    I'm in San Francisco - It's likely cost prohibitive to ship - I imagine FedEx or UPS would want at least $100 to ship it. I'd happily take a 2-3 hour road trip to pick one up.

    Harbor Freight 13 drawer tool boxes $271.99

    Would they ship them? I'm trying to find a 7-drawer to match my 13-drawer with no luck. Nevermind - called a store and they won't ship open box :(
