    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Yep, Ridgid Gen4X to Milwaukee M18 for me. But I always liked Milwaukee power tools, just bought the Ridgid cordless based on advice and a few issues later, all red, all happy.

    The Milwaukee addiction thread! :)

    Got a bunch of M18 stuff, but what I’ve been doing lately is buying the different 10-in-1 screwdrivers with the long chromed power drive bits on clearance to get every bit. Have every bit now except the 2 ECX bits, as those drivers haven’t been on sale. So I contacted Milwaukee about buying...

    Help me choose between these two, or offer an alternate!

    I prefer Husky in general. In my opinion, they are well made & my Home Depot is great to deal with. That being said, i know plenty of people who like, use, and modify their HF US General boxes and carts. This is a personal preference situation. Considering how long it will last you & both are...

    For example, its available right now, but the price shot up to $29.99. It could drop to $9 plus ship again if youre willing to gamble.

    2017 Lowe's deals/sales/clearance thread

    Keep logging in at odd hours throughout the day. Sometimes shipping becomes available. No joke. It worked for me, and they are great. Eventually, this wont work as the inventory will disappear, but worth a try for a few days. And you dont need to change the store for the shipping option...

    I called Channellock and they said ChannellockProducts.com are products they license to DoItBest while Channellock.com are products they make themselves.

    Show off your.... Carlyle Tools!!!

    That Carlyle is my FAVORITE 1/2” ratchet, and I own a Matco 88 locking flex 18”, a Duralast Comfort Grip, and a Cornwell SR50. What sets it apart is it’s low profile, balance/feel, and it’s as smooth, tight and strong as any of those other higher priced (even Duralast more $$) jobs. I love the...

    Meteor Mini Ratchet and Sockets?

    I've got a complete set in a plastic case. Inherited from my grandfather who may have bought it or inherited in turn from my great uncle. Complete and mint. Works pretty well. Plus several of the sizes are in 32nds (not that I've needed them......yet). The ratchet appears to have 12 teeth...

    Trusty Cook hammers shout out and Snap On comparison

    Trusty Cook is the bomb. Ask HammersMadeInUSA about the Buddy Blaster 52 ;) (See next post). Trusty Cook is the best. My favorite at least.

    Astro Automotive Focused Tap/Die set made from Japanese alloy - feedback

    Really like my spiral point plug style taps.

    Astro Automotive Focused Tap/Die set made from Japanese alloy - feedback

    Yes, please! Need to get a good set & it's annoying to have to buy a bunch of sizes I don't need & more annoying to pick them out individually. Need a good die set, should say. Already invested in taps. Japanese steel + Astro Pneumatic QC sounds like a winner.

    Trusty-Cook, Win a Few Hammers or Perhaps More?

    They are the best. Never thought I'd utter the words "I love my dead blow". But, there, I've said it.
