Been a while since I've been on here but thought I'd throw my 2 cents in on this one. Porter Cable is Sander standard. But Ive had Ridgids without complaints and Makitas that were also the 3-18 odd belt. My latest add on was a Wen 3-18 that I bought used and failed quick but I got it second...

Wouldnt say rock solid. One of my best friends owns a steel shop and he subbed me out for 6 months. 7 of these went from new in the box to in the garbage in that time alone. Run way to hot and cook them selves. Granted they get extended use in that environment. The cheapo ryobis and the...

Those would be great if I only cut single cable. Selecting a pair has been tough for that reason, most cutters with jaws deep enough for dual mess have really long handles making them a pain in the *** to use and just have in the belt.

Sorry for the disappearance, unexpectedly lost a weeks work and ended up owing 1600 on top of that so no new tools for a bit. Ill get back on this soon unless of course I move on to better things.

The majority of my old tool set "long since gone" was Husky or Ridgid because I was a sup at the Depot for years and I scooped up a bunch of great deals. But since Ive moved back from Germany I havent bought a single Husky product. Im not surprised the quality went downhill after everything...

Keep the suggestions coming guys. Friday is payday and my next day off to finalize my short list and place orders is Sunday.

I used to be a Klein fan but my last couple purchases have been regrets. I still use some of their cheapo electronic testers because I crawl around in the mud and work from heights in the rain. So if one gets lost under a house, zaps out or falls 40 feet because Ive lost feeling in my fingers...

Those are for copper, but I think we have a winner.

I actually looked at the apex version a few years ago but they got fairly bad reviews and I passed. That was before I was on here though so they were customer reviews probably from people cutting nails with them. Must be a local add link didnt work sears online has just the cutters for 15...

All the high lev knipex info I can find says 7/8 length or I wouldnt have this problem I love my knipex stuff Im sure there is a pair out there somewhere for me just havent found them. Im low on funds right now or Id pick up a set of 74-06-180 or 200s just to see if they cut any deeper. Im not...

Id rather they be chromed or well coated but surface rust Ill deal with. I see the Channelocks are still American made thats a bonus. Sat cable is all steel even the messenger. The only time we use copper is #10 solid for grounding and copper core rg6 for Broadband because its 24 volts and...

Just found a NOS set but they are $75 I can almost get two sets of Knipex for that but Im going to keep on the lookout for them Thanx

Dont need another tool in the belt, its heavy enough believe me. Time is money as well so I dont switch tools if I dont have to. Im needing cutters that are sharp enough to strip via rotate pull. The type of dikes with cutouts wont work either because they wont make a clean cut across a 1"...

Nice had some, never got a chance to get to get tired of them the Oscar killed them

Im a satellite tech so I burn up even the best cutters relatively quickly, coax is actually steel not copper. I have a set of klein d228-7 in my belt for outdoor use. I just got them and simply hate everything about them. They wont strip 18g messenger or 10g copper solid without applying...

still haven't mastered the multi-quote on here thanx north as well Well yeah random pins, gears, elect motors, she was concerned about those when we had a huge barn and a tool shed. So I can't keep parts anymore but tools yeah and yes she is quite thoughtful and is kind of a gearhead herself...

I couldn't help but post these up. I'm bedridden from surgery but my wife saw tools at a yard sale on her way home and picked these out for me.

I thought I knew a little until I got here. Now my little is bigger and bigger

Im on an air card and it refused to let me open the link (Video or just sh** luck) but I am on the serious lookout for a reasonable 3/4 set here and all my research so far suggests stalhwille for the ratchet so thats where Im looking but the draper expert set with extendable arm unless someone...
