    Robertson Screwdrivers??????

    I think licensing refers to the Robertson name, not the square-head design, at this point.

    New Tool Boxes At Costco....

    And I love the crinkle finish and latched drawers. Far better than anything else at this pricepoint that I could find.

    New Tool Boxes At Costco....

    Looks very similar to my Torin. I'd bet it's made by them. While the cabinet may not be terribly useful for pros I've had no problem finding stuff to put in mine - different shape to this one though.

    Kobalt table saw riving knife alignment issues

    Thanks for the response. Yes, I've read and re-read the manual a thousand times. It's not very good. There are three set screws for adjusting the riving knife. The manual doesn't detail how the turning of the set screws affect the alignment of the riving knife but when I tried they just made...

I have a rechargeable b&d lawnmower too. It's 4 years old and I wish it would last longer on a charge. I'd expect...

    Canadian Tire DEALS

    If Home Depot sells the same pliers you can get an additional 10% off. Picked up the oil filter pliers and crimpers today.

    Canadian Tire DEALS

    I was told by Lowes that because Home Depot only sells the product online it is equivalent to an "online only store". "If you find an identical item for less at a Canadian online only website, we will match their price (including shipping, handling and fees, if applicable)."

    Canadian Tire DEALS

    Borrowed from another forum: "For those who wait for the email to see the "sneak peak" flyer every week you can access it without the email by going to view the current flyer. In the URL bar there is a line that says "sneakpeek=N". Just change it to "sneakpeek=Y" and hit enter. If the sneak...
