    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Yes but shockwave is impact rated geared towards use for impact drivers. One would be overspending by buying shockwaves for a non-impact driver IMO.

    SK combination wrench question

    It certainly won't be ****. At worst it'll be as good as the snap-on ratcheting wrenches. It's a stew pot of speed, strength and beauty. Each of those ingredients are tried and tested, so in my eyes it can't not be a homerun.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Irwin Bosch Milwaukee and others make 7/16 hex woodeaters and 3 paddle spade bits. For the bigger diameter accessories, a regular 1/4 hex impacts take a beating. These bigger 7/16 imp drivers are specialty for linesmen. I'm pretty sure Makita makes one as well. I wish I had one.

    SK combination wrench question

    Defectes take a close look at the photo provided above. These are slated for spring arrival. Zoom in and notice the same tech snap on uses... This feature I admit you don't always get to reap the benefits from, but man it makes a world of difference if you need it. I'm convinced.

    SK combination wrench question

    Imo this looks just like the fd+... You can see the grooves towards the ends, plus it's a 4 point like proto asd or the Macs....fantastic.

    Did you mean to say superkrome? If so I agree my superkrome sk s are awesome. Wonder how they would do in that test...I don't have a 9/16" for a direct comparison. I'm poor so have to get one at a time....I have a 7/8 long pattern and a 3/4 standard length, both 6 point. Just googled...

    SK combination wrench question

    This video is what sparked the thread. He has a part one video where he compared the wrightgrip to an old sk and gearwrench, and both rounded the bolt, but the wrightgrip sheared the bolt.

    SK combination wrench question

    Right most pro wrenches borrowed the flank drive technology for box ends but I'm referring to the open ends which are broached to size but then linear grooves are added to catch and hold the bolt or nut on it's flats. This is flank drive PLUS and wrightgrip., not sure if any other mfg s use this...

    looking for a flashlight

    Energizer lithium light. Takes 2 AA, the light is brighter when using lithium batteries. Costs about 40$. Originally has an overmolded rubber grip on it but eventually the bond fails, I like it better without the grip as there is no friction when sliding it in or out of the sheath and or belt...

    4 ft wide insulation question

    If you are at 24 O.C. for your walls then you should be framing with 2X6. 2X6 studs will put you at 5.5" batts.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    I know people who've killed or abused their hammerdrills going through wet lumber with big self feeders or auger bits, going at it in speed 2 or 3; not knowing enough to go to low speed.
