Peter, what all else have you directly compared them to to say that? Klipsch is good, but there are many many good speakers out there and dozens of great ones at each price range. Typically 2-3 best buys out of all those for each price range. The Pioneer speakers in this thread are in those 2...

Yeah, there are a number of alternatives out there for sure, some with one or two of the features or abilities of the Pioneer but very few with all. I haven't seen any comparison reviews of the FiiO vs. the Pioineer so hard to say much. But they are fundamentally very different players. The...

I've found trying to use the spiral type drill bit attachments to cut sideways into wood is a very annoying task and doesn't work well with these. I just break the bits fairly soon and they don't cut wood much. Gimmicky for this. BUT, the same thing for cutting drywall is OK but does make a...

Hey Buck, Do not go Gently into that Goodnight !! and Do not ask for whom the Bell Tolls. It Tolls for Thee! (some famous people said those things once) - Paul

yeah agreed. They really should not charge any fee and get modern. I think their online business would really take off if they would get rid of the fee. Lot's of people without a local Menards might order from them if they didn't have it. - Paul

The online Menards ordering with the small but additional fee to get the items for you + shipping if needed is only good for two reasons. I once was at work and had to take advantage of a closeout deal that I couldn't get away to get to Menard's that day. But I could quickly buy online this...

Hey Guys, One more hot deal in garage/house audio to mention: https://slickdeals.net/f/9723592-pioneer-xdp-100r-portable-high-resolution-digital-audio-player-300-free-shipping right now, you can get the Pioneer Portable True Audiophile Player for $300 from NewEgg. This thing is truly a super...

Yeah, basically in the old days (which is not so long ago like say '80's), fine tooth meant 42 or 45. Course was less like 36 or less. Modern "Fine" into the 60s, 70s, 80s, or higher was 90's or later. Now there may be some brands earlier than that, but I'm thinking the mass market non-pro...

They don't have any built in mounting devices or methods, but you could do what Rice did above and create your own method of mounting. Finish on these is not wood veneer or anything, just like vinyl veneer, so it isn't like you would be damaging a pretty finish or anything with some screws...

Hey Guys, been awhile since we've used this thread, but the Andrew Jones designed Pioneer speakers so many have liked here for garage or house are on sale now again: https://slickdeals.net/f/9724116-prime-members-pioneer-sp-bs22-lr-andrew-jones-bookshelf-speakers-90-free-shipping This deal...

Hey guys, I have similar Husky 75 lb drawer capacity top and bottom 26" I got on clearance from HD a couple years back. Mine were still made in the USA. These are VERY GOOD boxes for a mid-grade type box. Not quite HF qualilty but equal to Craftsman mid-grade quality. Great at these prices...

Yeah, agreed. These are useful to have for those times you need them. A great purchase. - Paul

Tim, thanks for the reviews. First I've seen on either of those tools! - Paul

Yeah, OP please move this post over to Vintage Tools Section where it belongs! - Paul

Thanks for the info and post Toyville! I'm planning later on to make a 40v converter to plug two 18v (really 20v) batteries into it instead. But after my 40v batteries die so I have the starting parts for the adaptor. The 40v batteries are very very good though, so nothing wrong with them vs...

Some good Ryobi talk in this thread also: http://www.garagejournal.com/forum/showthread.php?t=350474 - Paul

Yeah, these days, I will not buy any Ryobi battery unless it is the Lithium One + format, with the 4 amp hour capacity. They are just simply head and shoulders above all previous Ryobi batteries and transform the line of tools instantly! They also last much longer before losing a charge. Wait...

Doctor: The 1/4" Ryobi impact driver is a super great tool, easily the equal of most other brands. I've used my two for about 10 years now. The 1/2" impact wrench is also excellent. I have the older one, which can handle anything auto I've asked it to do. The newer 1/2" available now is...
