I've had an Xcelite handle for about 40 years I can smell this thing even when it's in the case. No other tool I own stinks like this.

I have the Milwaukee problem (sickness) too, but never had any issues with the chuck slipping. But honestly I use the impact driver as my go to drill.

My vise is a 2" clamp-on vise. I don't do any heavy work with it. But in general since the bench top is clad with a sheet of stainless steel I don't see a problem with the MDF holding up. I didn't want to drill holes in the bench to mount my 4" vise. I don't think MDF is a great material...

It is brushed stainless steel over a solid MDF base. It is very heavy. It's better looking than it is functional, it scratches easily. I keep a roll of tool box liner or a heavy towel handy to lay down if I do any serious work on the top.

Well, I have lots of vices....Oh not those? I do have one that is a little larger. It doesn't like to have its picture taken. :thumbup:

Top three drawers are non-functional. The bottom drawer has a small notch in the back (maybe 4" X 2")

Are those Schaller bins? That is what I am building up right now for all my small parts and pieces.

Quoted from a very wise and great American Benjamin Franklin: "The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten." Caveat emptor!

I need to add a 110-120 volt 30 Amp outlet for an RV. I have a seldom used 3 wire 220v circuit that I would like to tap to get the 110v. I know if this was a 4 wire 220v I could easily grab one side of the hot legs and make a 100v for this but since I only have a 3 wire circuit I need do...
