I'm still putting together posts on all the new tools I saw at last week's Dewalt media event. Mechanics tools is coming up next, but there's not much stuff for me to talk about. Good news is open stock is coming. Finally! Anyways, I put up a new cordless tool sneak peek at ToolGuyd...

I posted a photo of the Dewalt ball bearing combo in my mega deal and sneak peek news post today( http://toolguyd.com/tool-deals-news-dewalt-sneak-peek-photos-062015/ ) but know you guys would like a quick look too. Looked and felt pretty solid. I don't remember pricing I was told, but think it...

Have you been to ToolGuyd lately? No? tsk tsk. That's okay, here's some of what you missed. New Craftsman plastic modular/stackable tool chest combo. It's a set of 3 chests and a rolling base, seemingly identical to Keter's elusive offering. List price is $130, but I'm almost certain it'll drop...

Bought a set of these wrenches a couple of months ago. Love 'em. Review: http://toolguyd.com/facom-440-combination-wrench-review/ I'm not yet a Facom fanatic, but I'm certainly a fan. They're a little on the short side, and the box end is a little thick (but this is a consequence of a good...

I've spoken a bit more to the tool department leadership on Sears' side, and also shared more of my own feedback with the Craftsman team. They are EXTREMELY grateful for everyone's feedback on ToolGuyd (http://toolguyd.com/what-do-you-think-about-craftsman-and-sears/) and in the thread here...

As mentioned over at ToolGuyd (http://toolguyd.com/what-do-you-think-about-craftsman-and-sears/), I spoke to someone who took on a new leadership role at Sears. He's looking for feedback on Sears and Craftsman, with respect to tools. I didn't ask what's in his power, or what he plans to do. But...

LOVE 'EM! I bought a bunch individually back when Amazon had crazy-good prices on PB Swiss tools. Quick review on ToolGuyd: http://toolguyd.com/pb-swiss-tools-stubby-hex-keys/ Would I have bought a set back then at full price? Nope. Would I buy them now at full price? Yes, they're that good...

Posted a random Facom tool pic on ToolGuyd earlier (http://toolguyd.com/random-facom-tool-photo-tool-talk-1/), and wanted to share the same image here - it's the third one, of the open end of a quick action combo wrench. And while I'm at it, here are two more pics - one from my previous review...

In case you're interested, here are the tool deal lists I made from several retailer's Black Friday 2014 ads: Home Depot Lowes Sears Ace This is always a pain in the **** to do, but I hate having to dig through sales flyers, ad scans, and black friday deal sites' bloated pages when I'm...

I put up a quick roundup over at TG. http://toolguyd.com/best-black-friday-2014-shop-vacuum-deal/ There's the Lowes Shop-Vac for $40 deal, a Home Depot Ridgid for $40 deal, and a Sears Craftsman for $70 deal. The Shop-Vac at Lowes is a new model this year, but I don't quite trust it. I'd go...

Over at ToolGuyd, I was working around an automotive and industrial hand tool theme this week, and took the opportunity to review a couple of tools I've owned and enjoyed using for years, as well as some I recently checked out. Here are a couple of my reviews from this week: Facom angled...

I'm looking to buy some project parts and supplies, but surprisingly I have no tools on my wishlist - yet. Maybe seeing what you guys are pining for will change that. Sooo... what are you looking to buy over the next couple of weeks when holiday sales and discounts are in full gear?

Craftsman recently came out with a new T-handle driver: http://toolguyd.com/craftsman-mach-series-t-handle-driver/ Looks decent, imho. I'm trying to get my hands on one this weekend. $20 Whatdya think?

After last year's disappointing offerings, I was skeptical about what Lowes had planned for this year's Christmas season. It's a new stepless gear less ratchet, and it doesn't ****! I got my hands on an early production sample that I tested and reviewed -...

I don't know what Worx was thinking when they named their latest cordless screwdriver. http://toolguyd.com/worx-xtd-extended-reach-cordless-screwdriver/ "XTD" :headscrat

There are new Ridgid-branded toolboxes at Home Depot. http://toolguyd.com/ridgid-pro-tool-boxes/ Update: Review is here - http://toolguyd.com/ridgid-pro-tool-storage-review/ I couldn't wait for PR channels to get samples into my hands, and so I picked up a couple during my lunch break. Made...

http://toolguyd.com/ryobi-toolblox-cabinets/ :bounce: I know some of you will scoff and point out the plastic construction and neongreen color, but I'm pretty excited about this. They're only available in Australia (for now???), but I hope it comes to the US.

Posted details at http://toolguyd.com/dremel-3d-printer/ Basically, it's a $999 consumer-friendly easy-to-use 3D printer. Technical specs are decent for the money. Will be coming to select Home Depot stores, and will be sold at Amazon and HD online. Craftsman/Sears toyed with the idea of 3D...

Craftsman's Wilton bullet-like vise looks to back in stock! http://toolguyd.com/craftsman-professional-bench-vise/ http://www.sears.com/craftsman-4-1-2-inch-bench-vise/p-00951888000P It's been out of stock since last December. Lot of people have asked me about it, Craftsman reps never gave me...
