I will likely get the Milwaukee but also eyeballing the Ego. Still undecided

Thanks for trying

Wife wants a mower, she doesn’t like the results with a trimmer but Thanks

Penticton, BC

I am pretty heavily invested in Milwaukee. Hoping someone has something good to say about a Milwaukee mower. Generally the wife cuts the grass so I am hoping for something light and easy to manoeuvre

There are sockets made specifically for square drain plugs. The plugs are not true squares they are tapered toward the outside of the plug, a proper socket will lessen the chance of damaging the plug.

My 20 yr old plug in electric lawn mower is on its last legs so I am in the market for a small (18”?) battery powered lawn mower. Very little yard to mow, maybe 300 sq ft. Wondering what brand is good, which to avoid? Any help will be appreciated.

I had an IR all it did was make noise. Bought a snap on one , works like a hot damn

Filled the divots with JBW and then hit it with my DA sander with 100grit. I mixed some of the cast dust in with the JBW. The colour isn’t a great match but it will be under a piece of aluminum and not seen. It was just my OCD couldn’t let it go

No constructive advise, but wishing you luck and am hoping you will let us know how you get it apart please,

Absolutely true but has been bought a couple of times since. I believe it is still US owned though

I will be looking into a slower motor, that should be an easy swap. I like the fact it was made in Canada

I picked up a Canadian Blower and Forge drill press the others day, this is the one that has the drill marks in the table I have been asking about. I had not heard of this brand before. Can anyone tell me anything about them? I have read the history on google but information from the user side...

I think it depends on what you are going to use them for, if you are trying to get a rounded fastener apart, you need “good” vice grips, if you’re tacking up a couple of pieces of steel to weld together almost anything that locks and unlocks will do. YMMV

I will give the JBW trick a shot, it’s never going to be perfect

These blow molded cases are a real PITA for storage. Damn near everything come in a case now, handy to have the bits and pieces together but certainly can cause storage issues especially if the tool inside isn’t used on a regular basis. I don’t know what the best answer is but I think Oldsmobile...

Probably a better idea than plywood. Thank you.

I picked up the drill press today while my OCD says I gotta do something about them, they are pretty minor. I will clean this thing up a bit and decide from there. Maybe just a piece of plywood under the yet to be purchased drill press vice will make my OCD go away of at least move to the back...

Ty, looks like the only practical way to fix these is JB Weld. I was hoping for some sort of magic trick but Will resign myself to JBW

Is there a decent way to repair drill marks on a drill press table? Only asking because I am looking at a used one on FB that looks to be in good shape but has some drill marks in the table. I don’t like drill marks, shows someone was lazy.
