    How long do you think the current gen milwaukee tools are gonna be around

    As in the m12/m18 line being their primary line of cordless tools before something new comes out? 5 years? 10? 15!? There's so many good sales now but I'm having trouble buying tools I won't use frequently knowing they'll be outdated someday

    Air vs electric impact durability

    I'm not that familiar with the design of either. Generally speaking, batteries aside, based on the design what will last longer a quality air impact or a quality brushless electric impact?

    pneumatic riveter advice?

    Looking to get a 1/4" pneumatic riveter and hand riveter. I'm leaning towards the astro pr-14 which does 3/16”, 5/32”, 1/8”, 3/32”, and 1/4". I've heard good things about the HF but figure the astro makes more sense since it is probably better made, within $10 of the HF, and will do 3/32"...

    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002SRNO6/?tag=atomicindus08-20 I think I saw this for $100 last week, unless I was looking at a different listing. This is the cp7200s... the cp7200 (which I believe is the same sander, just without the sand paper, someone correct me if I am wrong) goes for...

    Need eraser wheel/razor wheel tool recommendation

    air drill recommendations

    Looking for a air drill to be used mainly sheet metal/spot welds and the occasional broken bolt. I figure around 800rpm would be a good general purpose speed and matches up perfect for a 3/8" spotweld bit. I'd like to keep it under 200. Found a CP that looks pretty nice, 800rpm and has a...

    Need to paint some rusted steel

    I am making a couple largish (~3x5ft) target stands out of 1x1 steel tubing. It is pretty much covered in rust and is pitted. It doesn't need to be showroom quality and I do not want to spend a ton of time grinding off all the rust or spend a lot of money on it. The paint is inevitably going to...
