    Lowes refusing to warranty Kobalt

    Maybe Kobalt was like Craftsman, where a lot of store's tool brand activity was nothing but warranty returns. :dunno:

    One thing seems clear. Internet content influencers/providers like to eat and that being "over the top" is the most likely way to get fed. Working literally like a charm, with PF product tests. Looks like we can't get enough of him, even if to *****.

    Tool Organisation Was the Wrong Question — We Should Optimize for Speed of Retrieval, Certainty of Return & Protection of Value of tools.

    Why wouldn’t well organized tools be easier to get and put back? :headscrat Asking for a friend, since my stuff is just kind of in drawers, sometime I forget exactly which one. I wish I was highly organized

    Based on the tests, they most all looked like they would work fine in normal use.

    Maybe the "sour grapes" are from the top costly brands not performing spectacular, compared to the lower cost pieces. :dunno: The metal finish on the Snap On a real turn off jagged steel edges and what looks like pits in the metal.

    Indeed, we are. I have zero interest in ever even googling "what are the best pliers made?" or even searching a mostly pointless video like the OP linked, which is the only reason I even watched half of it. Half of the brands I've never heard of. I'd just buy something form HF, if if it might...

    Don't be surprised and I did. What did you mean by PF "just wanting clicks and making money"? :dunno: That is a basic goal of almost anyone who produces Internet content. It's basic, controlled functionality tests of similar competing products. Would sending a dozen pair pliers out to a "real...

    Looks like they showed every comparison test measurement between the pliers brands. :headscrat "drama" aside, do you feel the test results were actually rigged, or do you just not like their findings?

    I decided to switch all my cordless tools to Hercules

    I passed on the vacuum, anyway, pretty much an impulse buy. Already have the small corded Bauer, works great (more powerful) for $27, just have to get an extension cord and plug it in, to use. :lol:

    Didn't watch the whole thing, but the Snap On looked the crappiest of any of them. Years ago, I purchased a set of Pittsburg long reach pliers, (when they were sold in a set of three). I think I paid $10 bucks at the time. They might be some of the best specialty needle nose pliers I've ever...

    I decided to switch all my cordless tools to Hercules

    I went for the 1/4" brushless impact, (in addition the the monster 1/2" brushless impact) Was loving it driving in long screws in wood fencing. :) Then it stopped driving the screws all the way in. :( "oh, great, my HF dreams ruined" :rolleyes2 Nope, operator error. Somehow selected the "A"...

    Power tools - Corded vs Battery

    I have a corded Milwaukee Sawzall rarely used, that probably will still be good 1000 years from now. The weight alone is a advantage over newer cordless stuff in the OP rigorous test.

    Power tools - Corded vs Battery

    Does the left arm always have the exact same amount of strength as the right? :dunno: They did look like they were being horsed during their prospective cuts and the battery sounded like it was ready to poop out. :headscrat

    They have crazy-good prices on good stuff. I want to buy some, but already have equipment, I don't have the time to use. :rolleyes2

    I decided to switch all my cordless tools to Hercules

    Is it fair to let you speak for everyone? :dunno: The OP chose to go with Hercules. That that not the most expensive "best" level HF sells? :confused:

    I decided to switch all my cordless tools to Hercules

    I remember working for my plumber friend 22 years ago, who had purchased small, rather expensive (maybe $350) set of Milwaukee cordless tools/bag batteries. (drill, recip and circular saw). they were probably about the only game in town for professional cordless, at that time. They were well...
