I swapped out some old ones a couple years back. My driver was to get all four corners swiveling. I picked up 4 from the Big River in a nice bright color, at double the weight capacity I guessed the box was good for. The ones I got were easily installed (the mounting plates had some...

The problem is two-fold - Americans are becoming increasingly illiterate, and (perhaps related, as most of us, even the old ones) grew up with an Idiot Box as our main source of entertainment. There is a reason it is known (no, not nown) as the **** Tube. You Tube has just continued the...

I am about to find out how good the synthetic rings are .. 50 year old toilet replacement in progress. The tank to bowl connecting bolts were so rusted one needed to be cut off ..

I have a 12" 20V DeWalt - because I already have the batteries - it is 3 years old, has been perfectly adequate for my occasional limbs, and last week, post windstorm cleared the neighbors pine from my driveway with a few quick cuts - max of which probably 10" in diameter. I have a Stihl gasser...

Yeah, I mis-spoke on the Masterforce - I saw them at Menard's. But they mirror some of the models on Montezuma's website, albeit without some bells & whistles at a much lower price

I had the same experience - it was "in the back" - they first brought out the new 4 & a half incher but when I sent her back with that one she found the Stubby. I should have bought an extra to convert, but never thought of it until seeing the post above from pfbz

I have been looking for a new box - the Masterforce seems sturdy enough for my garage. Rebranded by Montezuma for Lowes I think - anyplace else to find them?

I also picked up Icon's newest Stubby 1/4". HF threw in a 10MM spare socket set for freebies ..

I get the YMMV thing, but did click into this thread to see if anybody had better ways to organize a 27" box - I have been agonizing over spending cash over just getting a bigger one, which would get filled up again by spending more on tools, which I don't need:whistle:

The finger holes & bone cutting notch are different from the Doyle/Knipex, but they do look otherwise identical. You can fish those NorPro's out of the Big River https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000MMRNL0?tag=atomicindus08-20 ..

The blower's effect on snow will of course vary greatly with the type of snow it is - dry, light snow a blower works well, wet late season type snow not so much. I sure wouldn't buy a backpack specifically to move Great Lakes snow, if you already have one then try it. Here in Michigan we get...

I like the magnets - I have been using a tray that fits to pegboard - these are those recently used. When I get around to it they'll get put in the drawer leaving only those that get used all the time out ... but in the meantime

I have an EZ Red branded neck light with batteries - they make a ton of different options, both batteries & rechargeable. I am not sure whether I am sold on it as a headlamp replacement though - having both I can't say I grab one or the other more often .. I bought the battery one because it...

Like so -

I'd like to find some of these that held up - let us know how the Dremel branded fare

Ok, the book I have Official Scout Blades by Ed Holbrook shows the first "Official Scout" (his emphasis) knife in 1911 as well, made by the New York Knife Company (under the Hammer Brand). His description matches save for the shackle.

The Simmons' sure has that Camp Knife pattern down nicely. Its a wonder they never made an official BSA knife

Here's one of my old Scout knives with a bone handle - anywhere from 86 to 99 years old so it outdates me . Ulster made BSA official knives from 1923 up to 1940

Yeah, batteries are expensive and won't last like a tank of gas if you use the machine a lot, but OP was looking for small, light to cover drive and patio. It all depends on the task as usual, that's why I have 3 blowers. My 20V DeWalt will do the patio and 60 foot driveway to clear grass...

The OP was looking for small & light, and already has 20V DeWalt stuff. Another alternative would be to try one of the DeWalt knock-off products which are floating in the big river if it's OK then just buy another for a spare at less than the price of a single OEM machine. If you don't mind...
