    Dewalt: Hog Ring or Detent Anvil

    I've had both and the Hog Ring is much easier and less frustrating to use. If you want to save money and go with the detent, there was a video or post on here that I used, where you take a file and lightly round over the edge of the detent so it will release the socket easier. I did do that to...

    Need help with B-day present, impact wrench/driver???

    I was just getting ready to suggest the mid range Dewalt. It has 330 lbs of torque, and even though it is !/2" drive you can buy adapters to go to 3/8". It has handled every lug nut I have thrown at it. And since you are in the Dewalt 20V platform now, there are more options for you to buy gifts...

    I've seen where most recommend getting the 10" pair if you will only have one set. I just ordered mine off of Amazon.

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    Thanks, unfortunately I am in too deep with Dewalt. When I first got into cordless tools Milwaukee wasn't as big of a player as they are now. If I was just starting out I'd definitely go with Milwaukee, but Dewalt is very close. Just wish they had a small 3/8 ratchet.

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    The problem is they are both exactly the same size, Atomic has 2K less oscillations per minute. Same weight, size, etc.

    The DeWalt Addiction Thread

    Got a quick question on oscillating saws. I can have the Atomic Dewalt with 2 amp hr battery and charger (DCS354), or the Dewalt XR DCS 355 with just a 5 amp hr battery. Which one would you choose? I already have a charger, 4 2 amp hr batteries and 2 5 amp hr batteries. The 2 amp hr are good for...

    Reelcraft, Coxreel or other, which is best

    I am happy with my Earthquake XT which is a direct knock off of the Cox reels. Very robust!

    Dewalt DCF894

    Anybody else have one of these? The precision wrench mode on mine seems to be non-existent. It runs lug nuts on full speed and never pauses, just keeps hammering away like it is on high power. I have watched several Youtube videos where the inpact actually pauses then starts back up again. Mine...

    Favorite 1/4” drive swivel head ratchet?

    Can't go wrong with the Icon, they did have a 20% off coupon on Icon tools about a month ago.

    Anyone tried the new HF Welder?

    They are in such demand Nationwide your best bet is to go to the store and purchase one with the coupon now, and they will ship it to the store within a week. If your waiting for it to be in stock, you may be waiting weeks or even months. They prioritize those that have paid and ship it sooner.
