    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    Ok I googled it...at least there's thousands others out there that screw that up too. My shop teacher in hs used that phrase like it was going out of style, and he definitely said intensive purposes lol. I still see him around I'll have to tell him.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Good post and I couldn't agree with you more. At my plant you have to submit requisition forms (req forms) for any and everything. I'm on McMaster Carr and MSC a lot, and most of the time the reqs don't get approved. It's hard for them to understand the new tools/equipment is A necessity. All...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    this i am going to make very simple. you do not use an impact driver on suspension/brake jobs. the right tool for the job would be wrench/ratchet/ for hand tools or impact wrench. the subject matter was impact driver on a brake job. the right tool or not... no it is not the right tool. debate...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    I exagerrated that scenario for clarity. if your threads are damaged and you put your lugs on with an impact, you wouldnt sense resistance through the gun. long story short, torque wrenches CAN BE AND MANY TIMES ARE, extremely unreliable. most of us have never heard such foolery talk about...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    Let's rewind.. OP used a Milwaukee M18 fuel to attempt to remove caliper pin bolts. This is not the tool for the job....you see these guys on this forum and on the web, with 6,000$ toolboxes, and every tool known to man? You know the sheer volume of quality tools that cause you to salivate when...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    If the shop you work for enforces this degree of professionalism, it helps the individual...but honestly you get a ticket worth 2.5 hours, you know you can bang it out in 2, that's a half hour in your pocket. It'll take you 15 minutes longer doing it the right way. It's not your care baby that...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    Take pride in the work you do. Quick example: electrician A) after putting the outlet faceplates on, he ensures that each slotted screw has its slot aligned vertically...around the whole house. Electrician B) does not. The job came out the same in all other aspects....which electrician is the...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    Scimmia said "you have an impact driver meant for driving screws''....it is a fact, impact drivers are designed for the use of construction workers, to drive screws. The 1/4" 3/8" and 1/2" square drive adapters you speak of are for sockets....for screws on the construction site. Lag bolts to be...

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    That tiny thing IS NOT what we've been talking about! That thing and an m18 or any other real impact driver don't compare. Stop going into the particulars, I see you have become desperate. You didn't even know that tool existed! Plain and simple, the OP used the wrong tool for the job.

    Something wrong with my M18 fuel?

    You can do that and it's fine. But if you have the right tool you wouldn't have to. You wouldn't see a pro doing that. Nothing wrong with it, but the fact remains it is not the right tool for the job. I myself use my impact driver for almost everything. But I have enough sense to know there is a...

    Scimmia is correct, somewhat. Initially impact drivers were meant for driving screws, but the attachments that have come out along the way make an impact driver extremely versatile. However, the right tool for that job would be a ratchet, or 3/8 impact gun.
