Just received my new Milwaukee M12 Fuel 1/2" drill and I'm quite pleased with it. Question: Why the 2 different sized batteries that come with it? Why didn't Milwaukee just include another XC4.0 instead of the smaller 2.0? Am I missing something or are they just trying to save money?

I've had this laying around forever. Thought about giving it a light restoration. Basically, blast and paint. It doesn't have a lock but the drawers slide great. What do you think I could get for it, cleaned up?

I need to delve into the cordless world. The only cordless tool I have is a DeWalt 14.4 drill. Great tool but I've been through 2 sets of batteries over the years and they're dead again. Instead of spending $$ on new or rebuilt batts I'm thinking maybe it's time to upgrade to a quality...

Don't need 'em, don't have the room and don't have the money! But, maybe somebody else does. They just caught my eye as I was doing my morning craigslist ritual. I think the prices are OK......you be the judge. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/4559622261.html...

Need opinions on a Matco MT2836 3/8" air ratchet. Apparently, they retail in the high $200's. I can get this one for $100 and that's good 'cause I don't want to spend any more than that on an air ratchet. It's been used twice. It's virtually brand new. My $20 HF Chicago Pneumatic finally...

I need to get a decent torque wrench and timing light. I want good quality but don't want to pay through the nose! Don't particularly wanna deal with tool trucks. Maybe something off Ebay, Amazon or online retailers. Any good recomendations?

Looks to be a 6". Prentiss? Columbian? Reed? I can't tell. Seems to be in pretty good shape (even with the spray can topcoat)! Not a bad price. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/4009131105.html

I finally got around to modding my HF 90lb pressure sandblaster. I got tired of blasting for 2 minutes then spending 30 minutes unclogging everything! I wound up replacing the feed assembly and modding the nozzle too. A few $$ in hardware store parts and a Saturday afternoon later and this...

How do these people determine their prices? Do they drop a tab of ecstasy before posting their ads? Simply amazing! I bought the same one at a garage sale for $2.....and I overpaid! http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/3873390642.html

I'm using conveyor belt material for drawer liners. It has a rough texture and the drawer bottoms are smooth. What would be best to use to glue it down? I was thinking Liquid Nails or some sort of construction adhesive. Anyone?

What do you guys use? White lithium grease/general purpose grease/motor oil/WD-40? I've got standard friction slides. I do alot of grinding and metalwork so there's chips and **** flying everywhere. Another question: What about drawer liners? This box is gonna basically hold...

Been sitting outside for a couple of years. It's an older unit and fairly heavy duty. Double friction slides on the larger drawers and a pull down door. Even has an electrical outlet plumbed into it. It's a little larger than most too at 34" W x 20" D x 33" H. A bonus is it's Made in USA...

Anybody have one of these? Will it last more than a week? I need one for hacking through exhaust pipes, suspension bracketry, etc at the local junkyards. It would be used sparingly. With battery and charger I'm looking at $50 total. It'd be nice to have a cordless Makita or Milwaukee but I...

The wife and I went for a ride today and noticed this home was having an open house.......so we stopped in. A little out of my price range but this is the stuff I dream of! Nestled out in the country on a full acre, yet 15 minutes from Hwy 101. Oh, what I could do with that shop! Here's a...

I'm looking to buy my stepson a floorjack. He doesn't have many tools and he just bought an Econoline pickup. 302, Cragars.....somewhat of a hot rod. He needs basic toolage. His wife bought him a mini floorjack/jackstands combo. Utterly useless! My budget is about $80. With a 20% off...

Late '50's/early '60's Craftsman 150 floor model DP - $75. SF Bay Area, northern California. Excellent resto candidate! http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/3641486961.html As you can probably tell, I'm trolling CL right now. Came up with this vintage Craftsman grinder w/sturdy stand. Looks...

I'm a frequent flier when it comes to junkyard scrounging and I can't count how many times a cordless sawzall would've saved the day. Today was an absolute necessity and I didn't have one! Now I gotta go back tomorrow with more tools! DeWalt is good, Milwaukee is probably better but I'd like...

These things are awesome for power tool storage! If you're in the SF Bay Area ya might wanna check it out. Probably won't last long. Here's the link and also some pics of my HON 2 drawer. I just don't have the room. I hope somebody on GJ can score this...

Probably won't last long. http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/3581049965.html

It looks like it says 6". Maybe 5" but still a pretty good price! Somebody grab it! http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/tls/3547286359.html
